This a small, unassuming Hotel, basic but good, very well located, close to the subway and lots of Dining options near by. The coffee at breakfast can be better and the hairdryer in my room never worked. The best part is the staff which is always friendly and helpful.

OK for a few days base
OK for a night or two for the price but felt the hotel was in need of a lot of modernisation.
Reception and breakfast area was clean but food options not good. Breakfast is served to you at a kitchen counter and nothing showing what was on offer apart from the odd things laid out on trays on the counter.
Lift was extremely small and old which you have to close the external door and then pull across the gate. Didn't feel too safe.
Room was very dark and dated. Bathroom was clean but again dated. Wifi signal poor.
Location is good and it was a decent base for a couple of days but not somewhere I would stay at if I was to return.

Some of the information given by Hotels.com beforehand was inaccurate. There is no Airport transfer, in fact when I door to Hotels.com, he didn’t know what this meant. The staff do no speak English, with the exception of one man who works 2 evenings per week. There is no in room massage. Staff tried to be helpful, location was good, housekeeping good and breakfast staff helpful, if the offering is a bit basic and repetitive.

I lost my money. I had a 12-day reservation but could only stay for one night. Since they make you pay in advance, there is no way to get a refund. The elevators are extremely small (barely fitting two people) and constantly get stuck. The TV sets do not work, and the room carpets are filthy. Honestly, this was the worst experience I have ever had.

I rarely write reviews this long, but I feel like I genuinely need to warn others before they consider staying here.
There was a strong, unpleasant smell of mold that hit us immediately in the room. It wasn’t subtle, it was the kind of damp, heavy odor that makes you question the cleanliness and safety of the entire space. Unfortunately, it didn’t stop there.
When we checked the beds, we found visible makeup on the sheets. Not just faint marks or stains that might have been missed, actual makeup, as if the bedding hadn’t been properly cleaned or replaced at all. The most alarming part, however, was the pillows. They had visible mold on them. At that point, it stopped being just an unpleasant stay and became a serious health concern. Mold exposure is not something to take lightly, especially when traveling with a child. There was no way we could stay in that environment.
We went down to reception hoping for some understanding or at least a solution, but the experience only got worse. The staff was incredibly rude and dismissive. There was no empathy, no apology, nothing. Even my son noticed the attitude, which says a lot. When a kid picks up on that kind of behavior, you know it’s bad.
We left 15 minutes after checking in. The place looks nothing like the photos. The images are completely misleading and do not reflect the actual condition of the rooms at all. It feels dishonest and very frustrating as a guest who trusted what was advertised.
