Excellent cost-benefit ratio.
I've stayed with them twice already and would return a third time if necessary. Super friendly staff, specially Malik and the manager. Big, clean and silent room and super comfortable bed. Good hot shower, amazing after a long walking day. Satisfactory breakfast. The hotel is simple, but offers enough comfort.

Bed bugs! Stay away from this hotel
Worst Hotel ever! BED BUGS EVERYWHERE!!! We booked the hotel for 4 nights with a group of friends. When we arrived they told us we can only sleep in the basement. The rooms are definitely not as they are shown in the pictures, way smaller. You cannot move with two people in there. So they offered us a three bedroom room (which was a normal hotel room for two people but they put two beds in there)… Worst Hotel ever! BED BUGS EVERYWHERE!!!

Extremely rude hotel staff!
Hotel staff is EXTREMELY rude! If you call on their reception then they don’t talk to you properly and say “we are busy” and hang up the call. And if you send them an email they never reply! Better pay little extra money and book a hotel where they know how to talk with respect and how to treat their guests!Hotel staff is EXTREMELY rude!
