The location is super. The stairs are a bit narrow and the rooms are small. I recommend it to those who will use it only for accommodation.

One star for the location but it's horribleThe price is a steal, there are better options and I regret not seeing them soonerThe stairs are hell, inhumane to climb so many floors with how tiny they are and how steep they are, you have to go without suitcases because you suffer from it.The rooms are small and they don't even clean them, they only change towels and garbageIn 5 days not even a cleaning, disgustingNobody speaks English so they neither understand you nor try to understand you.

- Noisy hotel, there is a nightclub that gives you a headache all night!- Very old hotel (the rooms give off unpleasant odors).- I am almost 28 years old and I have never in my entire life seen access to floors with staircases without landings, yes you read correctly "stairs without landings, that means you will have to climb very high and be careful otherwise the fall will be fatal 🚑🚑🚑- on Google, it is mentioned that smoking is prohibited in the rooms but what does it smell of hashish in the corridors!!!- Check Out very early at 10:30 a.m.- housekeeping service (vacuum cleaner) starts their work early because of the check out so lie-ins to forget!- from 8 a.m., the hotel becomes a market, no respect for customers (everyone speaks out loud).- No double beds (two OLD beds pushed together).- payment ONLY IN CASH so do not hesitate to ask for a well-detailed invoice.THE ONLY GOOD POINT is that the hotel is located in the city center.
