Place to sleep sometimes, not to stay here
Pros:

The door to the room could be opened just in a half - problems with a door or floor.
Narrow curtains - the light outside disturbed at night.
BUT
Quite friendly staff - the registratoin was fast and friendly.
Good breakfast - homemade tasty dishes.
Nice location - inside downtown.

Why so low rate - I made a booking of this hotel on other site - after posting the feedback they cancelled my booking and deleted review whith feedback that I was not living there. Absolutely unfriendly behavior after staying there.

Nice stay
Pros:

Nice stay in this hotel. Rooms are clean and beds are comfortable. Wifi is good, plug sockets on each side and a quiet AC unit.

Good location for walking down into the centre (takes 5-10 minutes) with lots of bars and restaurants near.

Place to sleep, but no hotel
Pros:

This is one of worst place I know. It is almost impossible to find it, then you get a tiny room with no day-light, no room for 2 suit-cases and our room was not the only one without day-light. The breakfast was served in a unfriendly, cold basement, to get it we had to weak up the receptionist, on the 2nd day there was no breakfast, the lady on the reception refused to understand English, so we went to a bakery and had a fine breakfast. If you need a place for some hours rest to wait for a plane, it might be ok, but it is not a hotel. In Georgia in general you have to be very, very careful with ratings !!

Pros:

Hotels.com'dan rez. gerceklestirmis olduğum otelden oda olmadigi gerekçesi ile başka bir otele yönlendirildim. Bu hiç hoşuma gitmedi, gittiğim otel daha küçük bir oteldi.

Great people, very cramped rooms.
Pros:

Wife and I stayed here for 5 nights--prepaid by our tour company. The hotel says 3-star, it isn't. Maybe a 2-star. The personnel are great, wanting to help. The rooms are very small, cramped. Two adults with two suitcases need to be very nimble to navigate the room safely. The location is in the 'Old City' that is the place you want to stay, just in another hotel.
