Huge, very good breakfast, clean but very dated
Pros:

Close to the train station.
Extensive breakfast selection— about 50 people eating breakfast at a time.
Rooms are not updated from 1960s— wood paneling walls, mid-century furniture. Clean but tired-appearance.

Cons:

See above
Also— very “seedy” location near the train station. Graffiti everywhere. Would not walk around after dark

駅から近く便利
Pros:

駅の裏手にあり、鉄道の駅、バスターミナルから近い。
部屋には冷蔵庫やコーヒーのセットがあった。
朝食会場は広く、品数も多い。
隣に大きなスーパーがある。

Cons:

エレベーターの使い勝手が悪い。（下に行きたいのに、乗ったら上に行ってしまったりする）
冷蔵庫の中の水のペットボトルは、ガス入りとノンガス、各2本だが、有料だった。
どこかに有料と書いてあったのだろうか？
4つ星ホテルなので、これくらいは、無料にすべきだ。
食事をする場所は、周囲には見当たらず、駅の反対側のほうが選択しが多い。

During my stay of 2nights 3 days, 1of the 3 of elevators did not work. I wondered if it is due to the mechanical fault or just rutine inspection, and when it would resume.
I hadn't see any notice for these.

As far as I know, 4 stars hotel provides more detailed service.

Seeing reply from this hotel, I am afraid that they are not customer oriented because they are too proud of the 4 star hotel.

Pros:

Breakfast was excellent. Location was disappointing, very close to the station and involved walking through the station to reach the main downtown area.

Superb
Pros:

Amplasarea hotelului foarte aproape de gara si de centru, curatenia, personalul, mic dejun foarte bogat.

Cons:

Cam multe produse dulci la micul dejun, ar putea fi inlocuite cu legume. Lipsa papuci in camera.

Des progrès à faire !

L'emplacement, la décoration, le faste de l'entrée et du bar.
