Pros:

Rien du tout. Immonde de A à Z

Cons:

Rien à voir avec les images. Bâtiment insalubre, sale. Les chambres puent, les matelas pas confortables,les draps sont sales et pas changés pendant 4 nuits. Les sanitaires vieillot et pas entretenu. Le petit déjeuner est insuffisant. Se trouve dans un quartier de manufacture de chaussures, l'insécurité règne. Bref, on a regretté d'avoir choisis cet hôtel. Le pire de toute notre vie.

Pros:

El desayuno. Variado y muy rico. Increíble.

Cons:

La unión del grifo con la manguera de la ducha no estaba muy firme y el edificio de al lado hace ruido (aunque es verdad que sobre las 22 30 deja de hacerlo)

Pros:

A központi helyek közelsége.

Cons:

A szálloda oldalán lévő képek nem is hasonlítanak a valósághoz. Egy cipőkészítö negyed közepén van, nagyon koszos, visszataszító az utca.

Not the room as shown o n Booking.com
Pros:

This was a disappointing start to our holiday. It looked beautiful on this website, but the room we were given was nothing like what was shown. The staff were OK but the room we were shown to was a disaster. There was a walk up a steep hill (dragging our luggage) to their premises. Breakfast was in a tiny room but OK and it was clean.

Cons:

The room was tiny. The bed was pushed hard against one wall leaving a narrow space against the other wall to get in or out of bed. No where to leave luggage except on the one small chair and a tiny table. The lock on the door didn't work properly and the slide lock didn't engage at all. The view out one window was thru bars. The TV worked but the air con didn't. We told them that we were disappointed in our room and ws told they'd see what they could do. The NEXT morning we were told to pack our things and they'd move us to a new room during the day. We'll the next room was the same tiny space but had a better chair to put our luggage on. This TV didn't work BUT the air con did AND the door locked properly. All in all not a happy place to stay.

Pros:

W miarę blisko do centrum i sympatyczna pani od śniadań

Cons:

Jak rezerwowałem hotel przez booking to miał super opinie i zdjęcia, korzystną cene i to mnie przekonało. Rzeczywistość jednak mocno zweryfikowała.

Parę dni przed przyjazdem wszedłem w rezerwację i zobaczyłem ze ocena spadła o 3 gwiazdki, zobaczyłem zdjęcia i opinie innych gości i już nie miałem ochoty tam jechać. Próbowałem skontaktować się z hotelem, ale nie było żadnej odpowiedzi.

Hotel znajduje się w okolicy gdzie jest mnóstwo zakładów z butami, na ulicach panuje trochę brud, a widok z okien jest żaden co widać na zdjęciach.
Ogólnie zdjęcia sa albo przerobione albo bardzo stare, bo zupełnie inaczej to wygląda. Zakłamanie, syf, brud i zniszczenie. Pan recepcjonista podrywa w obleśny sposób dziewczynę, dal mniejszy pokój z zepsutą klimatyzacją mówiąc, że inne wyprzedane, mimo ze widziałem na komputerze wiele innych opcji. Dopiero później po rozmowie z dziewczyną wymienił nam pokój.
Nie można powiedzieć, że to rudera, da się przespać normalnie, ale zdjęcia nijak mają się do realiów. Za ta kwotę i wiedzą z obecnych opinii nigdy byśmy tam nie zarezerwowali pokoju.
Na plus jedynie sympatyczna Pani zajmująca się śniadaniami.

Pros:

Great location

Cons:

I understand that the price is low and the hotel is old, so it can be dirty. But in three days there was no cleaning once. They didn't take out the trash and didn't change the towels.
Very strange manager. If you are traveling as a young girl or even two girls, I don't recommend this hostel at all. There will be a lot of intrusive and unprofessional attention, offers, personal messages that are not related to accommodation, etc. I saw similar reviews from some girls here but I didn't think it would actually be like that. So be careful.
