The property is nice but when they advertise a city view the room looks straight across the very narrow road looking into a block of houses. City view must mean seeing the city not a block of flats 4 meters away

Basically like staying at a hostel with your own (dirty shower) bathroom. No room amenities like a a coffee maker. Get two bottles of water then have to pay 1€ each after.

The room was ok. The pillows were like rocking chairs though. (Head kept rocking back and forth because they were so uneven.) The bed was very hard but my husband liked it, so maybe not the worst for everyone. But the bathroom was not great. The shower leaked and the floor was filthy. The rest of the room wasn’t cleaned very well either. Found hair on the pillowcases when we first arrived. The location is great, however. And the check in was easy.

Walls covered in spatter of bodily fluids ?vomit ?blood a hair also. Bathrooms need renovated badly. Air conditioning turns off in the middle of the night (this occurred in our friends room also so it is a deliberate cost saving measure by staff) incorrigible given the heat. Drain clogged and not draining water in shower. Mould in shower. Was cheap. But definitely cheap and nasty. 1 night only for sure or find elsewhere.

Breakfast came as a pleasant and unexpected free promo/gift from the hotel. The receptionist was great. The only problem was the shower because water is not well directed to the drain so it leaked to the room.

Good stay
Finding the hotel was easy and check-in went by quick. I can’t remember much about the elevator in terms of size, but I do know that my mom and I, alongside each of our carry-on bags, fit just fine. The room was clean and the beds were good. I had no problems with noise and I am a light sleeper. The location of the hotel is very convenient as it is close to harbour and close to the main area of the city. It also close to two bus stations (one being the main bus station). The only small thing that I noticed was that the door that led to the balcony wouldn’t lock. I tried several times, but the lock just wouldn’t latch on. The area also felt safe, which was very important to us since we were two female travellers and we had to check out at around 2:00AM to catch the ferry. Even at that time of night, we didn’t feel unsafe walking around with our luggage. Overall, it was a good stay that is positioned well in the city.
