It cheap for being down town…but not necessary worth the value if you are staying more than one day
Pros:

It was down town

Cons:

The ac was very loud and we had to sleep with or open! In bathroom we had some kind of carpet on the floor and it was smelling of urine!

Letűnt kor hotele magas áron
Pros:

Szép helyen található a Hotel Bristol. Látszik rajta, hogy valamikor a múltban előkelő szálloda volt.

Cons:

Városra történő kilátással foglaltam szobát. Ehelyett olyat kaptunk, ami egy hátsó bekötő útra nézett, egymás mellett álló kukákkal.
Nem dohányzó szobában nagyon zavaró volt a folyosóról beáramló cigarettaszag ajtónyitáskor.
A szobában nincsenek európai konnektorok, csak az angol megfelőjük. Átalakítót kértünk a portán, de csak a 2. működött.
A szobában nagyon hangos a mobil klíma. A fürdőszobában minden szűkös, kicsi. A szoba ára viszont nagyon magas. Nem érte meg.

Because of the carpeting I would not recommend it to ANYONE. There was a bad atmosphere among STAFF
Pros:

It looks so good from the 'outside', but they have thick carpets in all the rooms, and this in a very hot climate, which carpets I believe to be infested! I experienced ITCHING BITS on both my lower legs. In UK we would it a BOARDING HOUSE

Cons:

The view from the FIRST room (231) was a street scene, interesting; from the SECOND (110) it was of a 'wall'. I had a 2am change due to the screeming winds over the Rock. I was told, 'I can't do anything about the noise of the wind!'
