Central Location Worked Well

lovely roomgood valuestaffed receptionbad air
I had a lovely room on the top floor. It was a good value. The room was clean. I was worried because of previous reviews. I had no issues. The location is conveniently in the city center. Reception is staffed 24 hours.
The room was really warm, and the air was bad. It smelled bad. The neighborhood has rubbish, and there are scary people around the steps. They sometimes try to grab you.

Great Central Spot!

helpful staffcomfortable bedperfect locationshort walk
The staff was very helpful with directions and local tips. I appreciated the adapter they provided since I forgot mine. My room had a comfortable bed. I slept well each night. The location was perfect. It was a short walk to the station.
The stairs to the upper floors were quite narrow, and there wasn't a lift.

I found the location really good. It is in the heart of the city. Their friendliness stood out. The room I had featured a comfortable bed. (This was quite appreciated after a long travel day.)
