Hotel was good, decent location. The bed was good and firm, shower was fine, breakfast basic but decent. Staff really pleasant. There was a lack of sockets for charging and the wi-fi wasn't great. The room had a small balcony and the building was lovely.

Cheap, but not quite value for money though. Pros: Location (close to city centre) and clean (very good job by the cleaning staff; this place was so old it's difficult to keep clean). Cons: Just about anything else. Worn out room/place, reception wasn't particularly friendly at arrival, very poor breakfast.

Stay away

They could not find our reservation. I have booked a triple room for 74 €, we got a double for me, my wife and our teen daughter. It cost 80 € for one night. It is cold everywhere in this "hotel", the guests had breakfast with their jackets on. The breakfast is ridiculous, you'd better eat somewhere outside. The shower was a disaster, the only good thing there was plenty of hot water.

Apesar da entrada um pouco sinistra, de precisar tocar uma campainha em um portão e depois passar por uma garagem, pegar um pequeno elevador e chegar até a recepção no primeiro andar, eu até que daria uma nota melhor se não fosse a falta de empatia, e a arrongancia de uma senhora que fica na recepção. Nunca vi tamanha grosseria em atendimento a cliente, mal educada e estupida . No mais, quarto razoável, café da manhã também…boa localização …mas a estupidez dessa senhora me impede de voltar lá…
