Checking in was easy. Good English spoken. Lobby is very pleasant. Room was clean and above all quiet all night. Shower was lovely. Temperature perfect. Price we paid was really good value. After a reasonably late arrival on a Sunday we found plenty of eating options very nearby.

Trasig Ac och intresserad personal

Väldigt dåligt städat. Acn var trasig på hela vårat våningsplan. Ointresserad personal. Enligt tidigare recensioner så har Acn varit trasig länge. Enligt personalen har det precis hänt och säger att reparatören kommer flera dagar senare efter att vi har checkat ut. Inga andra lediga rum och ingen kompensation. Det positiva är läget.

Quarto bom e limpo. Ambiente barulhento e cortinas não fecham completamente (um pouco difícil pra dormir). Muitos mercados e restaurantes perto. Um dos recepcionistas um pouco confuso, mas muito simpático e prestativo. A porta lateral era possível de abrir, mas quando abre toca um alarme ensurdecedor e outro recepcionista foi super rude por eu ter feito isso (sendo que a porta estava lá sem nenhum sinal de que eu não poderia usar). No geral, se procura um lugar barato pra dormir e tomar banho, super recomendo. Eles tem restaurante também (não estava funcionando quando eu fui, mas tem!). Mas se quer um lugar pra descansar, talvez não seja a melhor opção.

Ok hotel but room was small.

Staff were very helpful from Reception to Repair team. Hotel was in good location near shops and transport. The room was a small double with en-suite. Bathroom was great . Large and modern. There was little space around the beds which probably accounted for all the marks on the walls.The room was showing signs of wear and tear with patches on paint, holes where hooks and hangers were missing so needed a refresh. The rooms down the corridor were being refurbished so maybe this room is on the list. Would stay again but ask for a twin rather than double.
