Family Holiday

17 August 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were comfortable and well equipped. Although not extremely close to riverfront, the hotel is a pleasant walk away from city centre. Breakfast was included and was a good value.

Disliked: Not exactly a dislike but the hotel has that "Grandparents' house smell" (mothballs/old furniture).

Liked: Good price and helpfull staff (but you pay in the end for every restaurant booking they help you with, just so you know).

Disliked: They don't have carparking and aircondition even if they say on HostelBookers that they do! The house was nice and not that warm anyway but we choose them because they had aircondition so a bit disappointed.

Liked: staff were very friendly and helpful

Disliked: not the best location (very dark and quiet around the area at night). a little bit of a language barrier with one of the staff members as he did not speak english (but still very friendly and tried to communicate as best as he could).

Liked: it is definitely a place to sleep only. you have no fun no interaction. the staff is totally anti-english :(. so you cannot receive no useful info no orientations. this place seems rather to be a cheep cheep hotel than a youth hostel. the room was very cold. nevertheless it was hot water in the tap so it was enough to shower, but only for one person. the location is 15 min uphill walk from main railway station.

Disliked: Cristina left no negative feedback.
