Hatalmas csalódás
Pros:

Központi hely

Cons:

Penészesek a szobák szellőzői. Többet is megmutattak, de ugyan olyanok voltak. A végére kaptunk egy olyan szobát ahova beküldték a takarítókat hogy pucolják le a penészt, de felületi kezelésbe ez sokat nem ér

Strategically located and for me nostalgic and spacious room is rare nowadays.
Pros:

Just in front of the station. The room is the old fashion way which is nice if you still want to experience before the tourism boom and card locks. Also the room is big compared to the newer hotels.

Cons:

Everything is good.
