Reviews
After when we tried to leave the staff had badly communicated so they did not believe we had paid and we had to wait until they would trust us. Communication skills between workers needs to improve.
Checking in and out was very easy.
Perfect location with lots of nearby shops, supermarkets and bakeries.
On the positive side, check-in was quick and easy, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Free parking was a plus, and the bed was surprisingly comfortable. The shower also had good water pressure, which I appreciated.
However, the overall quality of the building was disappointing. The construction feels extremely cheap—every sound carries through the walls and ceiling. I could hear people walking and talking in the hallway, conversations from the room next door, and even small things like someone unplugging a device or switching on a light. It made for a very restless night.
There’s no air conditioning or proper ventilation—just one small window that doesn’t provide much airflow. On warm nights, this becomes a real issue. Also, there are no blackout curtains, only roller blinds that do little to block out the light. Especially during the bright summer months, this makes it hard to get quality sleep.
The furniture was worn out and dated, and the bathroom showed signs of mold, which was unpleasant.
In summary, while the staff and basic amenities like parking and water pressure were good, the lack of soundproofing, ventilation, and proper window coverings make it hard to recommend this place.
