moldy bathroom shower design

The location worked well. It was close to many attractions.

My room supposedly got an upgrade, but the bathroom reeked of mold. The shower setup sprayed water everywhere.

fantastic central hotel with excellent staff

free upgrade good view helpful staff

i received a free upgrade from a budget double room to a bedroom (it had both a single and a double bed). the room was on a high floor with a good view and air conditioning. the room included complimentary slippers and toiletries. the staff showed me routes to main attractions on a map and booked an airport transfer in a limousine for only €30.

the shower didn't drain particularly well.

i didn't book breakfast at the hotel because many options exist nearby (i liked the turkish breakfast at the rabbit hole). it was easy to find alternative dining venues for a good morning meal. this flexibility worked well for me.

excellent stay near main attractions

helpful staff kind gesture great location

The hotel is close to main attractions. the staff were helpful and kind with suggestions. the manager upgraded my room to a beautiful double room free because the hotel wasn't fully booked the first night. This was a really kind gesture. the hotel location is within walking distance of major landmarks.

the shower did not drain well. room service was not handled directly by the hotel, it was more like an uber eats delivery with food in packets. i needed to pay immediately, tricky as i was in the shower when it arrived.

Dining

the breakfast buffet, served at a nearby hotel, offers many choices. fresh coffee was available with limited food selection, though one gets a heads-up to come early for fresher food.

The beautiful double room had a sea view. the room was generally clean though rooms are small with no shelves or drawers. the room included standard amenities. The space felt well organized.

moldy air conditioner limited breakfast

the first room was a letdown. it was quite small, and the air conditioner had some mold. breakfast was pretty basic. there wasn't much variety, and the food didn't seem very fresh at times. i think i expected a bit more for what i paid.
