Don’t bother pay more go else where
Pros:

Nothing good

Cons:

The staff were very rude upon entrance, the room was dirty with a broken bed, the shower curtain had tones of mould on it, no batteries in remote, very loud, noisy as hell, stains on the bed and walls … service was poor we had to guess where the room was we only got given a key room and no information upon where the room was… don’t bother pay more go else where.

Es war gut, dass wir nur eine Nacht in diesem Hotel übernachten mussten.
Pros:

Die Lage ist toll.

Cons:

Der Boden des Badezimmers war nicht geputzt und es lagen Dutzende tote Käfer herum. Die Lampen haben bis auf eine nicht funktioniert.

Pros:

La posizione era molto centrale

Cons:

Purtroppo la mia esperienza non è stata all’altezza delle aspettative. Il personale non è stato particolarmente cortese, soprattutto durante il check-in: non mi è stato spiegato praticamente nulla e l’atteggiamento della persona che mi ha consegnato le chiavi è risultato piuttosto scontroso. Inoltre, le serrature sembravano molto vecchie e poco sicure, al punto da farmi temere che la porta potesse aprirsi da un momento all’altro. Considerando il prezzo pagato, mi aspettavo decisamente un servizio migliore.
