Lokacija katastrofa. Ulice pune narkomana i kriminalaca. Sigurnost 0.
Pros:

Uredna i moderna soba.
Bogat i kvalitetan doručak.

Cons:

Lokacija :(
Sve ulice oko hotela su pune narkomana, beskućnika i kriminalaca. Ulice smrde po mokraći. Nije sigurno šetati navečer. Nismo se osjećali sigurno.

Osoblje nas nije upozorilo na taj problem, saznali smo tek kada smo prošetali ulicama i nakon toga malo istražili po internetu.

Pros:

AC worked and shower was great. Room was a bit small but perfect for 1 night before flying out. Breakfast was fine. Not the best neighbourhood but again it was ideal for what we wanted

Cons:

Nothing

Good hotel in a bad location
Pros:

The staff were very friendly, everything went smoothly. The room, albeit smaller, was clean (and cleaned daily), the bed was nice, the bathroom was smaller, but everything worked. The breakfast could use a bit more variety and some proper espresso machines, but it was tasty and with a nice view from the rooftop. The hotel is very close to metro, so you can easily connect to other parts of the city. Overall, it was well worth the money and we had a nice stay.

Cons:

The area is smelly and full of sketchy people. I understand that this isn't the hotel's fault and it's sad that this drives the ratings down. However, we knew what we are getting into and it didn't bother us that much. But it can be dangerous for solo travellers I suppose.

Pros:

The room is too small. No chairs at the balcony and the balvony itself lookd unsafe.

The staff and the workers on reptions were great!

Food is the same all the time, can differenciate the food a little

Cons:

Room size

Pros:

Es war ruhig, gutes Frühstücksbuffet auf der Dachterrasse, das beste Bett meines Lebens. Nur unser Wunsch nach 2 Einzelbetten wurde aus organisatorischen Gründen nicht erfüllt. Das Dopoelbett war aber ehrlich sehr breit. Das Zimmer allerdings ziemlich klein. Da man aber ja den ganzen Tag unterwegs ist und nur zum Schlafen kommt, ist es ganz ok.
Das Personal ist besonders freundlich und sehr bemüht.

Cons:

Das kleine Zimmer und leider liegt das Hotel zwar sehr zentral und günstig für die Erkundungstouren aber in einem etwas heruntergekommenen Stadtviertel. Viele leerstehende Häuser und immer wieder Obdachlose auf den Straßen. Es ist aber nicht gefährlich.

Cons:

Byli jsme ubytováni na straně k hlavní silnici,bez špuntů to nedáte.Uklizeno bylo denne.Velmi malý výběr jidla veliké zklamání(polopenze). Upřímně čekala jsem víc celkově... okolí velmi nepříjemné, plné bezdomovců, feťáků, odpadků špíny.Recko zbožňuji ale tady se už určitě nevrátíme... jediné pozitivum v blízkosti metra.
