Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
They skimp on everything! No heat, they give you an extra blanket, that's why all the guests are cold! Mattress in room 4 needs to be replaced! Female Russian staff member so unhelpful. Check in is not welcoming; took me 25 minutes. I could not wait to get the hell out of there. The only good thing was the warm shower

I turn up and know one was there. Then a guy walked out said he work there and let me get in and walked down the street to not return. So I left because the place look not welcoming at all. And no one was there to check me.

Centrally located in the Old City, however, brings your earplugs because the night life in the bars and clubs around goes until early morning

No lo recomiendo

Fue fácil encontrarlo. El chico de la recepción con muy mal modo. Quejándose de que a mi me había salido barata la habitación pero para él era pérdida (una habitación individual, pero tenía 3 camas). De mala manera me dijo que elija una cama y que ni siquiera me siente en las otras porque debería cobrarme extra.
