The good, the meh, and the bad

Honestly, after reading some of the scathing reviews about this place (that I read *after* booking), I felt compelled to leave my own! For context, this was a last-minute booking, and I am a solo female French-speaking traveller. The good: the location is excellent, the price was good, and it was cleaner than I expected. I didn't see any bugs, mice, or dirt, at least not in my room ("queen superior"). I didn't spend any time in the common areas, which seemed run-down, but not as filthy as some reviews would indicate. The meh: the bed wasn't comfortable, the breakfast was basically wonder bread and some stale cereal, and the TV doesn't get many channels (if you only speak English, you'll have about 3 channels to choose from). None of these were a big deal for me. The bad: The lock on the door seems really flimsy, and overall the security is questionable. There is one person working the desk, and sometimes guests leave the main door ajar so just anyone could walk in. Pretty sure there are a few people who just straight-up live here. It's a sad vibe, like you're staying in a Darren Aronofsky movie. Overall, you get what you pay for. It's for sure sketchy and I wouldn't hurry to stay here again, but it's not the hellhole that some reviews suggest.

It was ok

Lovely team & very central. You need to navigate stairs, so give it a miss if you have mobility issues or trouble carrying luggage up steps. It wasn't a lux hotel, but it was clean and my room was big. I was there for a Friday and Saturday during the summer.. the Friday night was quite loud due to the club next door (so bring earplugs just in case), but the Saturday night was quiet.

This was by far one of the worst hotel stays we've ever had. The room was filthy — the mattress was heavily stained, the sheets had marks, and we even found a used Q-tip on the floor. The room was not cleaned properly, and it clearly didn’t match the pictures or description online. We were so uncomfortable we had to sleep over the blanket and used a shirt to cover our pillows because it felt too dirty to touch. We couldn't even make it through the night and ended up leaving at 5 AM. This is NOT a family-friendly hotel, and I would strongly advise against booking here. Totally unacceptable hygiene and false advertising. We have photos too bad we can post it on there .

This is not the Hotel I will recommend to anyone even if it is free. The rooms offered were on Third floor after you climb few steps. No elevators and no help to move your bags Then the rooms do not have an attached bathroom !!!! You are told to share it with other gusts. The carpet and bedsheets and towel looks lake used and never cleaned . Very very unclean . Never again
