Great Staff but Hotel a bit disappointing

The hotel shares the entrance with a pub, which was a bit confusing and not that confortable. Our room was on top of the pub and it always smelled like cigarette. The shower got flooded all the time and the toilet seat was broken. They couldn't fixed it while we were there buy they said that they would check it and thanked us for the observation. The area is not the best, but Budapest is not that big and downtown can be reached fast.

A value for a short stay

Good value. Not the greatest neighborhood but only a short walk to ruin bars and train station. Amenities like grocery stores, pharmacies, and late night nibbles close by. Didn't eat or drink in the bar downstairs. Size of the room was great. Shower flooded a bit. The soap was a watered down low grade shampoo. Wifi didn't really work which was frustrating.

1forgetful night at Budapest

The cleanliness of the room was a big disappointment. There was hair stuck on the shower soap dispenser and the cupboards smelt musty. The location is not great and saw a couple of homeless people hang around outside the entrance of the hotel. Robert at the reception was very helpful and the biggest plus of the hotel.

Beautiful room! Would reccomend!

Hotel looked a little rough from the outside, but our actually room was great! Looked like it was recently renovated, had a couch and cold a/c. You could purchase breakfast for a few euros but we decided to skip that part. The only two downsides was there was no mini-fridge (not a huge deal) and the wireless internet was terribly slow. Other than that we really enjoyed it and would go back again.

Great stopover hotel

A great hotel for the price- I stayed one night when arriving late into Keleti station (two blocks away), so as long as one understands that the room might be small, not polished, and that there is no elevator, it's a convenient stopover. Staff were friendly, and the hotel bar was as good as they come for this class and neighborhood.

Great Hotel

This Hotel far exceeded our expectations. From the helpful friendly staff, to the cleanliness of the rooms. For such a good price, we didn't expect anywhere near as nice as this. I would really recommend it to anyone who wants a simple, but clean and pleasant place to stay. The breakfast is good and very cheap too!

Convenient location

This hotel is very close to the main train station, and directly across from the hop on/off bus tour stop. Have to walk through a restaurant area to get to the check in desk. The room was clean and comfortable, more space than usual for a European hotel. The front desk staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Would definitely stay here again.

Great location & service!

I was pleasantly surprised with this hotel. The service was exceptional. The staff is extremely friendly, knowledgeable & at your service. It made my stay in Budapest a much more relaxed & enjoyable one. The only recommendation for improvement would be the breakfast as instant coffee isn't the best in the mornings, but overall great service. Thank you & keep up the good work!
