Pros:

The hotel has a great location-convenient to get to some attractions. The breakfast is good 👍 and the service is excellent too. It’s really great value for money, I’d definitely recommend it.Plus, it’s right next to the underground and sightseeing bus stop. Highly recommend

Pros:

Το προσωπικό, το πρωινό

Cons:

Τουλάχιστον το δωμάτιο που μας έδωσαν θέλει ανακαίνιση, δεν ανταποκρίνεται στο κόστος διαμονής

SURTOUT A EVITER !
Pros:

La seule chose positive a été une climatisation de la chambre correcte.

Cons:

Tout a été mauvais !! la chambre très petite, la literie très dure, les oreillers trop mous, une WIFI défectueuse (la réponse du réceptionniste est que c'est un problème dans le quartier !! ?), un petit-déjeuner de très mauvaise qualité (produits industriels), bref un séjour d'une nuit catastrophique.

Kryształ City
Pros:

Blisko metra, czysty pokój

Cons:

Nie działał roof top bar mimo zapewnień dzień przed że będzie otwarty. W związku z tym cena wydaje się wysoka za hotel w okolicy opanowanej przez narkomanów. :(

Pros:

A takarítás, a személyzet rendkívüli volt. A szálloda aljában van egy kis pékség, cukrászda ami nagyon jó. A metró 2 percre.

Cons:

A szállodában a reggeli nem volt változatos, minden nap ugyanaz volt. A szoba klimatizálása sem volt túl jó illetve nagyon-nagyon zajos, nem lehetett jól pihenni.
