“Best value for less money”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 24, 2012

I've stayed in many hotels and I can say that I never received such value for less money. It was much more than I expected from 3 stars and so low price. Hotel is newly renovated, it is perfectly clean, room is cute and cozy, so as the rest of hotel. Receptionist is very kind and helpful and he speaks English pretty good. Of course, you can't expect perfection for such low price, and the only minus is that the bed is not very comfortable, for my taste it is too soft and I didn't like the pillow, but after all it is not that important. I've stayed in expensive hotels with terrible mattress and pillows, and paid 5 times this price.
Location is great, just 15 minutes walk to town center, and there are some nice bars and restaurants nearby. Also, if you are traveling by car, you can find parking spot in front (street is not that busy). For us it was good because we stayed for one night, and we arrived around 6 p.m. (parking is free from 8 pm to 8 am) so we payed just first two hours, and we were lucky to find a spot just in front of hotel doors. If you're staying longer, there is parking garage nearby.

All together, I warmly recommend. Much more than you expect for 26 € per night.

“Great value, excellent service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 1, 2012 via mobile

The staff were friendly, helpful and fluent in English. My room was clean and modern with a compact bathroom. It was small but big enough for me. In the room was a large flat screen TV (though only CNN in English), a mini bar and a safe. My only complaint would be that the room was too hot.

The hotel offered free WIFI and use of a computer in the reception and you could help yourself to tea for free. They also arranged transfers from and to the airport (a taxi). They did offer breakfast but we did not take it.

It was about 10 mins walk away from the city centre but there were a few nice bars and restaurants about 2 mins away.

All in all this hotel offered excellent value at less than £20 per night. I would definitely return there - hopefully sooner rather than later.

It's a great hotel and the staff is amazing, very helpful and kind. The location is good, rooms are clean and new furniture. Free wifi in the rooms, free tea in the lobby. We even had free umbrellas for the rainy days.
