Cleanliness
1
Generally reported as clean in many reviews ("propre", "It was clean", "camera pulita", "temizliğini beğendim"), though a few guests noted odors (food/tobacco) and inconsistent towel/linen service.
Service
1
Mixed: several mentions of quick communication and a helpful host, but at least one detailed report of very poor customer service (wrong room, no compensation, lack of housekeeping unless requested).
Location
1
Consistently praised across reviews as central and convenient for attractions and transport (many notes: "excellent location", "trams", "in the city center").
Room Quality
1
Mixed to negative: some rooms described as comfortable with good beds, others as very small, cramped (bed in kitchen), small bathrooms, worn mattresses with dips, or dark and box-like.
Amenities
1
Kitchen facilities, coffee machine and basic kitchenette praised in several reviews; occasional lack of items (limited crockery) and missing hairdryer were noted.
Value for Money
1
Several guests commented positively on price/value (good cost, would return for the price), though one guest felt the experience didn't match the paid booking.
Food and Beverage
1
Not a primary focus in reviews; only incidental mentions (coffee machine positive, unpleasant food/tobacco odors) — assigned target rating due to sparse direct feedback.
Overall Experience
1
Overall mixed: many positive stays highlighting location, cleanliness and helpful hosts, but some serious negative experiences (service failures, small/difficult rooms) lead to a neutral net impression.

Çok keyifli bir konaklamaydı.
Pros:

Tesiste gerekli olan her şey vardı. Olanakları çok fazlaydı. Bulaşık makinesi, mikrodalga, kahve makinesi, buzdolabı soğutması çok iyiydi. Dokunmatik sistem ile bütün odayı kontrol edebiliyorsun. Son sistem bir hotel. Konum çok güzeldi. Her yere yürüme mesafesindeydi. Ulaşın çok kolaydı.

Cons:

Temizlik çok iyi değildi ama diğer hotellere göre iyiydi.

Pros:

Ubicacion perfecta. Efficaz, respuestas claras y indicaciones para entrar (aunque nunca hemos visto a nadie en persona). Habitacion moderna y comoda para dormir.

Cons:

No es un lugar 'acogedor' para pasar una tarde...poca luz, oscuro, no jardin o patio...es utilitario, perfecto para descansar despues de recorrer la ciudad.

Less than comfortable
Pros:

Location to tram line from Central Train station and grocery store, nice restaurants.

Cons:

Poor layout, lighting controls difficult, could never turn off bathroom, couldn't sit at the chairs as difficult to pass the bed and wall tv, maintenance issue with broken window handle, shower sweep on left door missing causing water on the floor. Insufficient towels and pillows, asked for additional and it was not accommodating.

Pros:

A proximité de tout, centre, parking...très belle ville ;)
On a adoré

Cons:

J'ai dû faire une erreur dans ma réservation car je voulais deux chambres et je pensais avoir un grand lit au salon et un lit superposé dans une chambre comme sur les photos...mais on a eu qu'un lit superposé dans le salon et pas de chambre :( mais voilà certainement une erreur de ma part.

Pros:

Die Lage und das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis waren super.

Cons:

Das einzige, was wir zu bemängeln haben, ist, dass für 2 Personen nur 1 Weinglas im Zimmer stand, welches zudem noch kaputt war ( haben wir genauso in der Ecke auf dem Tablett stehen lassen).

My stay was pleasant.
Pros:

I didn't have breakfast, didn't know that there was an option to have breakfast. The location was excellent.

Cons:

The self checkin was a bit stressful. Also that there was no way to drop my luggage after arriving after an international flight of 14 hours and had to to wait until after 15.00 to checkin was inconvenient.

Comfortable and convenient
Pros:

Location is very central and walking distance to all major sites.

There will be a mixed crowd of students. They can become problematic with drinking. But the property is proactive to ensure safe and pleasant experience

Prima hotel
Pros:

Midden in het centrum en de kamer had een keukentje.

Cons:

Was een klein trapje van een paar treden naar boven gelijk achter de deur. Als je niet goed te been bent is dat lastig
