Not 4* experience
Pros:

Great location

Cons:

Rooms not great - mattress was incredibly uncomfortable with springs poking through, needed a deep clean as dirt was encrusted into the carpet. Desperate renovation needed to make room functional and presentable, plug points and wardrobe not usable because of the layout of the room. Not typical of a 4* hotel at all.

Самые худшие впечатления в моей жизни.
Pros:

Место положение было хорошим. В центре города и ближе к метро. Завтрак был хороший но скучный. Каждый день тоже самое и это надоедает. Комнате большие окна которые смотрят на улицу. 3-метровые стены(потолок).

Cons:

В комнате не работала отопление это тогда когда на улице +13. Попросила аж 5-персонала никто не пришел и не интересовался, хотя бы обогреватель и одеяла дали. Рецепционистка орала на меня аж « я должна сидеть у компьютера а не по комнатам ходить». 3-и день чинили отопление только в ванной комнате. Холодными руками и носом спали 3 дня. Вот так прошло наш отдых. Я жалею что деньги потратила на этот отель. Это не 4 звездочный отель а 1 звездочная.

Cons:

Rude staff, the room had horrible stains all over the carpet, no windows, the electrical box was literally taped on the ceiling and was falling down, coffee machine didn’t work, fridge in the room was blowing hot air.

Pros:

מיקום לא רחוק מהמרכז של כל החנויות

Cons:

תמונות משקרות ומנצלות את וירטואליות.
נתנו לי חדר קטן ביותר ללא מזגן נראה כאילו המזגן עובד אבל בפועל היה לי חם רצח .
טלוויזיה לא עובדת בכלל .
כשפניתיי לקבלה בנושא התשובה הייתה כרגע אין עם מי לדבר .
המחיר לשני לילות היה 300 יורו כולל ארוחת בוקר וערב שהארוחות גם לא מצדיקות את המחיר.
הייתי לפני כן במלון מומלץ ביותר בשם Kozmo Hotel באותו המחיר ולפעמים קצת יותר אבל חוויה בלתי נשכחת כל מילה מיותרת להסביר ...

Et meget sterilt hotel uden nogen form for charme. Personalet er gennemgående uengagerede uden dog at være uvenlige. Bel
