Pros:

La ubicacion del hotel en pleno centro a pocas cuadras de la estacion central y sobre una de las principales calles

Cons:

La habitacion es bastante chica, las camas incomodas y la vista era una pared pintada, el sector de la ducha del baño no tiene cortina o mampara y tampoco en el suelo un borde para que el agua este retenida, ademas la luz es por movimiento con lo cual cada tanto tiempo si no hacia un movimiento exagerado se apagaba.

Pros:

Brilliant location 5 minute walk from the central station, loads of bars and restaurants all around the hotel. Hotel very clean throughout.

Cons:

Steep stairs in the room for ensuite bathroom, probably would not pass health and safety rules if in UK. The threat of 50 euro fine, whilst checking in. If you lose your key card was not great

Només ens vam allotjar una nit i en vam fer prou. Soroll al carrer, una habitació on només hi quep el llit i no tens més
Pros:

La proximitat a l’Estació Central.

Cons:

Està situat a un carrer amb bars on hi ha molt soroll, les habitacions són extremadament petites i no estàn súper netes. La relació qualitat-preu és abusiva.

I would not recommend this hotel. I don't know how it gets three stars.
Pros:

Bed was comfortable. Room had a double aspect. Bathroom itself was fine but see below.

Cons:

The fan in the bathroom didn't work and the smell of drains was sometimes strong; the light was permanently on. The aircon control was missing so there was no fan (grim on the 4th floor in 25 degrees of heat). The din from the street was awful at night: the location was otherwise convenient. The amenities in the room were very basic – no shelves, no stand for a case, no kettle, no fridge. The free coffee machine in the lobby was out of action the only time I tried it. I paid more than £200 per night for this.

Overall not a very well kept hotel but very efficient location
Pros:

Property is very centrally located, only a couple of minute walk from the train station and most attractions are not more than 20 min walk away

Cons:

The floor was dirty, very clearly wasnt cleaned before our arrival. The bedsheets were ripped and stained and the bed wasnt properly made, although the bedsheets smelled washed. The carpets were all patched up.

All of the above 👆
Pros:

Location to train station
Reception staff were pleasant

Cons:

It was filthy - I can share pictures
It should have been priced as a single not a double
3 hangers but no wardrobe and this was for 2 people?
Towels looked 20 years old
Stains on the pillows we have to buy 2 ourselves
Drop the word Royal it’s embarrassing

Mies!
Pros:

Sehr gute Lage zum Hauptbahnhof

Cons:

Ich bin wirklich enttäuscht von diesem Hotel. Schon der Eingangsbereich wirkt extrem heruntergekommen und ungepflegt – insgesamt einfach lotterig und ranzig. Die Sauberkeit im Zimmer ließ ebenfalls stark zu wünschen übrig. Dazu bröckelte an mehreren Stellen der Putz von den Wänden, was den schlechten Gesamteindruck noch verstärkt hat.

Besonders problematisch fand ich die extrem steile Treppe ins 1. Obergeschoss. Mit einem Koffer war das wirklich unangenehm und ehrlich gesagt hatte ich Sorge, dort wieder sicher herunterzukommen. Von Barrierefreiheit kann hier definitiv keine Rede sein.
Hinzu kam, dass die Klimatisierung bzw. Heizung im Bad nicht funktionierte – bei gerade einmal 13 Grad Außentemperatur alles andere als angenehm. Das Zimmer selbst hatte außerdem nur ein winziges Fenster mit minimalem Lichteinfall, wodurch es sehr dunkel und bedrückend wirkte.

Und das alles für rund 250 Euro pro Nacht – absolut kein angemessenes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Ich würde dieses Hotel definitiv nicht noch einmal buchen.

Brilliant location. Ok hotel
Pros:

It was a very clean hotel in a brilliant location. Very polite staff.

Cons:

The bathroom needs updating. No pressure for the shower and there were no toiletries.

The mattress was just two massive soft mattresses on top of each other. You need a step ladder to climb up to the bed.

Cons:

The room was freezing when I arrived as the window had been left open. The heat pump on the wall did not work, and the inverter attached to the outside was loud and did not seem to stop running all night even though I stopped the heat pump soon after starting it. The room and the hotel were dirty and smelled like stale cigarettes. The mattress was uneven and the pillows had a musty smell to them. The walls between the rooms are very thin and I was awoken at 2am when people returned to the room next door, presumably after a big night on the town, and proceeded to cough, retch and moan until dawn.

Not enjoyed property, however Location was good.
Pros:

Location wise very good.

Cons:

Super tiny room and no separation in bathroom. If someone gets bath, immediately we can’t use for toilets; meaning very small Place.
