Great location and great value. Close to shops, markets, restaurants, attractions, and public transit. They were doing electrical upgrades during our stay, and we were offered a full refund at check-in if we wanted. We stayed 2 weeks and the work was not a huge problem. We tried to be out and about as much as possible while the work was going on during the daytime. We are not housekeeping required everyday guests. When our room did need some attention, the staff were quick address our needs the same day. Staff were very helpful with visitor suggestions and tips. They booked our taxi to the airport for us since we did not have access to the right apps. Very cool. The washing machine in our room was a huge plus so we did not have to pack as many clothes as we otherwise would have. The only negative would be no elevator if you cannot physically handle going up and down 30 stairs. Overall great value for the money and would stay there again when visiting Budapest.

A Lovely Stay

Self check in and check out of an apartment in a cute little courtyard on a street with tons of shopping and restaurants. Very close to the river and walking distance to many things. Two separate queen beds (though not the most comfortable), one and a half baths, a small kitchen area with washer.

Amazing apartment I have stayed at 3 times in the last 2 years with everything we needed. however please note there is NO ELEVATOR and there are many stairs, some of which are slippery and a hazard for older adults or lots of luggage. This should be clearly noted. We stayed in 212, which would seam to be the 2nd floor but is on the 3rd floor. I would recommend better lighting and better grip on the actual stairs, as I slipped once. The location is perfect on a beautiful street with convenient transportation and so many restaurants and shops

I'm not sure of whoes fault it was, but I didn't know my room number and how to check in and out. To check out, I contacted with a staff member by e-mail and could get a password for a safety box and return the key. Because other visitors seemed to know, it might be my fault or lack of instruction.

Lovely modern apartment, set in a wonderful ancient buulding, located in the city centre. A free breakfast is provided in the restaurant next door, which is fronted by a friendly, helpful young lady who speaks perfect English. Couldn't have asked for more from a reasonably priced week's stay in Budapest.

The building is old and shows it, but the room is quite efficient and outside noise minimal. Noisy neighbors were on the same floor, though. Some past reviews are critical of the breakfast, but we found it to be fine—one ought not expect the Ritz at a budget-friendly lodging! The young lady working at breakfast is delightful, competent, and speaks English well. We would stay here again.

The location is excellent. The room (we have a 1-bedroom loft) is spacious and very clean. There is a washing machine in our unit and detergent was provided. We enjoyed our stay at La Fortezza Panzió. However, it may be a challenge for people who have mobility issues as there are a number of stairways.

Great location on the main tourist walking street in central Budapest. Checkin and checkout was easy and completely person-free (eg only via codes and a lock box). On the downside there was no one around to ask for help and no one in reception at the times we went there. Had a problem with a lack of hot water that went unresolved.
