For those who can't sleep...

Liked: Staff was friendly and helpfull! Location- wonderful!
Disliked: We felt uncomfortable because doors were too thin and there were big holes on its sides. So we heard everything and everyone who was outside. Worst part that right next to our room were house keeper station. So they (probably accidentally) bumped our door a lot.

Superb

Bad

Exceptional

Beautiful room and easy access...

Liked: It was very clean and easy to walk to places.

Passable

Pleasant

Liked: The location was OK.
Disliked: As we arrived, we received a room that felt like a storage room. We asked to transfer and we received a better one. But... the elevator is very slow, the room has an old carpet and old curtains, we couldn't close the curtain in the toilet - had to use a towel to cover it and so on. The staff was polite but not really nice.

Poor

Disappointing

Liked: Nice location
Disliked: The hotel looks nice on the photos, but it is very very outdated and felt dirty to me. The carpet, beds, furniture and even the bath felt as if it needed to have a proper steam clean. Their windows have a single glazing and holes in the corner, so there is literally zero noise isolation and difficult to sleep. It is really unfortunate, since I was looking forward to this stay, yet it felt physically unpleasant.
