LOCATION & BREAKFAST

I thought the hotel was a bit overpriced for the quality of the room. However, the location can not be beat and the breakfast is absolutely fantastic. I would recommend this hotel to friends and family.

Good value hotel which is well located and quiet. Excellent breakfast with lots of variety. Single room was clean and had a kettle and safe. Only negative was that it was cold and air con didnt heat the room sufficiently

Excellent stay, nice place, great location. Only beef I had is that there was no ice machine? Anywhere on the property? No Ice!? Other than that small issue I would stay again.

Location convenient for O

Good location, albeit in a run-down street. Close to Old Town and restaurants, railway station and walkable to main sites. However, my superior room had flies in it and the reception did nothing about it throughout my stay. Reception did not answer the internal phone when I called. My towels were not changed and rubbish not removed from the room. The bath was very slippy and no mat. I had to use a towel in the bath to stand on. The bathroom fan stayed on throughout and was noisy. I could hear the person next door snoring!

Oldie but goody

Air-conditioning poor so had to have windows open. Outside noise very high on Saturday night because nightclub is around corner. Furniture dated
Vilma, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not charming and not worth it.

I just cannot believe that any of the positive reviews are true or that anyone would stay here more than once. The hotel is rundown, the beds are basically military cots, the rooms stink, the showers is actually smaller than a cruise ships. The location is about 3 blocks from everything but I am literally listening to someone coughing on the street and I'm on the fourth floor, meaning you will not sleep because you will hear everything with the window closed. The TV has 3 channels, the hot water comes and goes ( if you can get in the shower). I could go on but and I am an avid traveler and not prone to giving bad reviews but this place is bad. Also, these photos are NOT real, the place isn't even blue!
Nothing like the pics online.
3 Chanels old and tiny
Smaller than a cruise ship shower
Most uncomfortable bed I can remember
wayne, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

This hotel is in a fantastic location for exploring the old town. It was clean, staff were friendly and the hotel has character. Unfortunately the hotel is very echoey - on our first night after a long day travelling we were woken up between 5am-6am because of a cleaner in the hall way making noise. Our bed was very creaky so whenever either of us moved the noise woke us, we also struggled to sleep because we could hear other guests coming and going, doors opening and closing and people talking. If it wasn’t for the noise and the lack of sleep I would say I would stay again but unfortunately that ruined it for us.
Rhiannon, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Rubbish customer services. The lady at reception was rude and unhelpful.
Sajjad, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel is located slightly away from the old town, in a quiet alley which was nice. It was also from a walking distance from the market hall. Nice staff, clean room, mediocre breakfast. Worth of the money spent.
Emmi, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Thank you for a warm and wecoming stay!

Great welcome, friendly and helpful staff with excellent English. Hotel and room corresponded to expectations, cozy and traditional, and well located in center not too noisy. Mattress needs replacing but other amenities fine. Would return again!
Stephanie, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Hotel was quiet and overall very clean. Breakfast room was a bit crowded and breakfast buffet was a little bit disappointing. Nothing fresh.
Heli Susanna, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Not really 4 star hotel and have to pay city tax twice (when booked and also when check-in).
Jonne, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Everything excellent except the room stank of fresh cigarette smoke the entire time, I stayed 4 nights and it was as if someone was smoking in the room while I was out. Nearby hostels had young people constantly who screamed into the nights. Tub had a leak somewhere at the bottom and flooded the floor constantly. Breakfast buffet was excellent. Overall atmosphere is okay. Location is good.

6/10 Good

Just a basic property parking was available but not easily accessible do to large cobbles… quaint but you need to carry your luggage as the cobbles will make it impossible to roll luggage ok for me but I think elderly folks should stay aeay
Leif, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our time was delightful, from the moment the receptionist made special effort to allow the four of us to check in SEVERAL HOURS early, to the wonderful hot breakfasts served in the constantly cleaned and services breakfast rooms! The variety of the food was good, with many fruits, hot and cold dishes, including salad, too. This was our third time at the hotel and probably our best! Our room, #405, had a bathroom door that wouldn't latch or close properly, but we forgot to inform the hotel. We also, unlike our traveling companions, had a room without a mini-refrigerator and only a cabin-style shower, instead of a bathtub shower. We would ask in the future to make sure we had the mini-refrigerator and bathtub shower, but we again enjoyed ourselves so much and didn't suffer much from their absence. Finally, I wish to thank the hotel for surprising our companions, the wife of whom was celebrating her birthday the day of our arrival, for the VERY SPECIAL surprise she received. They were both happy and overjoyed! I look forward to our next visit.
Lawrence, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not so good stay this time.

No access to bed from sides and had to crawl in from bottom, tiny shower and very little room to move, shower seal worn and flooded floor, no sachets of coffee anymore, tiny tv with 3 stations not worth watching, breakfast average. Won’t use this hotel again.
