This hotel was not at all what I expected. While it had a decent location, the conditions of the place were appalling. The rooms were filthy and in desperate need of maintenance. I was very disappointed with the breakfast options, which were practically nonexistent. If you’re looking for a comfortable stay with basic amenities, this is definitely not the place.

The hotel has a fantastic location right in the heart of the city, making it easy to explore. However, the experience is marred by steep stairs, cleanliness issues, and a very basic breakfast. It’s definitely a place for those looking for a budget stay without the usual hotel comforts.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was fantastic as everything was within walking distance, and I appreciated the cleanliness of the room. However, the service left a lot to be desired, and the noise from the bar below was quite annoying at times. Overall, it’s a reasonable budget spot for younger travelers, but those looking for more comfort might want to reconsider.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and it was quite a disappointment overall. While the location was fantastic, the cleanliness and service left much to be desired. The rooms were basic and not what I expected based on the website, and the breakfast was incredibly limited. The steep stairs were a challenge, and I would definitely recommend looking elsewhere for a more comfortable stay.

I was pretty disappointed with my stay. The room had terrible beds and was noisy because it was above a bar. However, the shared bathroom was clean, and I appreciated having a kettle in the room. Overall, it certainly felt more like a hostel than a hotel, and I wouldn’t recommend it for families.

I had a terrible experience at this hotel. The rooms were in awful condition, with dirt and mold everywhere, and even the fire alarm was hanging off the ceiling. The breakfast was basic and not worth the extra cost. However, the location was decent, right in the city center, which made it easy to explore. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place at all.

I stayed here for one night and it had everything I needed, plus it was decently kept up and the room was spacious, making my stay comfortable. However, my experience was partially overshadowed by a very steep staircase that made getting my luggage to my room quite challenging, especially for anyone with mobility issues. Overall, it was a decent stay, but it could use some improvements.

The hotel has a decent location, but my overall experience was quite disappointing due to the cramped and unkempt rooms. While the facilities were basic, I found the noise levels from nearby clubs to be quite bothersome. If you're just looking for a quick place to crash, it might suffice, but I wouldn’t recommend it for a longer stay.

My stay at this hotel was a complete nightmare. The place was filthy, with mouse droppings everywhere and terrible bed linens. I had my doubts when they demanded payment upfront for all four nights without letting us see the room first. The only redeeming quality was that the internet worked decently, but everything else was absurdly disappointing, especially considering the price we paid.

My stay at this hotel was far from enjoyable. The rooms were in a regrettably poor condition, with dirty carpets and broken fixtures. While the staff were somewhat pleasant, the service didn't make up for the disappointing accommodations. The location was decent, but the noise from the nightclub made it hard to relax.
