Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
THIS PROPERTY DOES NOT HAVE WIFI!
Pros: Clean room, mostly modern (except dilapidated bathroom). Quiet neighborhood. All but one (kitchen) staffer had very good English.
Cons: NO WIFI! No fruit, orange juice or real butter at breakfast. Breakfast offerings did not vary at all over eight days. Dilapidated bathroom with broken shower head and rusted mirror. Property is at the top of a steep hill.
Review: This property has no wifi! They will insist they do; they will even give you a network name and password. And you will then spend the rest of your stay watching it endlessly connect and drop. This was true not just in my room but also in the breakfast area and the hallways, with constant attempts on two different devices. Management may try to be legalistic about "no wifi" versus "no usable wifi," but will that make your frustration any less intolerable? If you have any need whatsoever for wifi in your room, then do not stay here under any circumstances!
If you will be relying on public transport (which is VERY GOOD in Budapest), then just be aware that you must go down (and then return back up) a very steep hill to get to and back from the nearest streetcar (S-bahn) stop. Bit of a bummer at night or in the cold (or carrying bags or groceries or a pizza or...).
Staying at a low-end property (which this definitely is) always involves an element of "you get what you pay for." But I definitely DID pay for wifi and didn't get it. So there you go...
