Gora Kadan

While the hotel was probably beautiful at some point, it is in dire need of updating. It looks like it wasn’t renovated since the 50s. The odor in the room was unbearable, we couldn’t sleep as it was so intense... There were train tracks right next to our room, with A LOT of traffic - which also didn’t help with the sleeping. The communication of the front desk was poor, to say the least. I emailed them 3 times to discuss our late arrival, and therefore that we wouldn’t have dinner there - I never heard back, and they charged me for a dinner I didn’t 2. I also told them that we would be two guests instead of 3, but they claimed that they had to hear from Hotels.com to refund me the difference, which they never did. Bottom line: no good!
