Generally, all was comfortable and suited our holiday.

The location of the hotel is close to many good eateries!

Unfortunately, the hotel was having some upgrading and refurbishment work going on.

Vanha nostalginen hotelli. Joka paikka narisi kun liikkui😊

Vessa ei toiminut kunnolla. Olin vain pari yötä joten eipä haitannut.

Unclean and poor facilities

地理位置

The hygiene was very poor. They didn't change my bedding when I checked in. When I was getting ready to go to bed at 9pm, I found that the sheets, pillowcases and quilt covers were dirty. I was the pillow in the quadruple room, and only two pillows were clean. The other pillowcases were dirty and had a strong smell, as if someone else had slept on them. There seemed to be blood stains on the sheets, and there were frayed hairs on them. It was obvious that they had been used by others and not washed. When I asked them to change my shift the front desk staff told me it was time to check in when I checked in and it had been six hours now and they had no staff. I had no choice but to change the sheets and pillowcases myself. The room was not cold and the pillars on the bed were dangerously close to breaking. The door of the cabinet falls down. You cannot push the other door open because it will fall out and it will be dangerous. Especially if there are children it is easy to get hit.

extremely dissapointed.If I was to give a star rating for this hotel it would be a poor 2 star.

bathroom was ok. only thing wrong was the shower mixer taps were not very good.

The booking site said there was a TV in the bedroom. there was! but only one chanel and it was chinese. there was NO MINI bar. The roof top bat/restaurant was not functioning. The ''simming pool'' was not a swimming pool, unless you were under 1 metre tall. the water was to shallow to swim in, hence swimming pool as described was false information. The bathroom soap etc were not renewed daily. The breakfast was very poor. no fruit juice, no choice of bread, no toaster, only saur kraut bread available.

Location

Set up of the room, the steps and limited space, expected more for the price we paid. Staff kept knocking and ringing while we were still packing to leave at 12.15 pm.

Pleasant and served the purpose.

The old furnitures, antique decorations, the old telephone in the room. The windows at the room were cool antique windows.

The ironing facilities. They only have 2 irons w/out ironing board. But I can’t use both iron coz both have burned remains sticking to the ironing plate. Then when you switch on the irons, the burning smell were very strong plus the irons’ cord were very short.

Toilet can't be flushed

It has a classic design and close to a lot of shops and eateries

The toilet couldn't flush in room 112. When complained to the receptionist, she says nothing can be done as the maintenance guy is not in. She couldn't even go all out and at least lent us a bucket so we could easily flush the toilet.

welcoming characterful hotel but eat breakfast in one of the nearby cafes

characterful with interesting antique pieces. friendly receptionists

no wardrobe, cooked buffet breakfast was cold/lukewarm as burners not lit. tea was kept warm on coffee maker. it would be better to provide freshly made tea and freshly made filtered coffee. if not possible I would advice stop providing breakfast because even though it was included in the room rate, most people avoided it and went out for breakfast.

Very good

Staff was very friendly. Front desk was opened 24h for your needs. Located a bit away from main riad, make quiet at night but difficult to find at your arrival.

Room service didn't come during the 4 days of our staying

Should have cancel the room upon register

Architectural and interior design of the building. Brings the vibe of the 40s

Pay additional for service tax. Upon arrival, straight away the receptionist told us theres no tv channel. Booked room with breakfast, but the cafe staff told us theres no coffee, tea or even simple juices. Asked for a pancake, but they served us their home country version pancake.

Short stay at nice hotel.

The location was central. It was within walking distance from the center of town.

Some of the rooms were lacking amenities but when we informed the staff it was promptly taken care of.

The bed and pillows are comfortable. Toilet looks great. Location is within walking distance to most attractions.

Our check in was really late. 3pm standard check in time and we were there at 3.45pm yet we still had to wait more than 10 minutes for the room to be ready.
