Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Erg slecht! We hadden een 3-persoonskamer geboekt, bij aankomst was de kamer niet gereed. De eerste nacht kregen we een kamer met een tweepersoonsbed en een opklapbed. Het opklapbed was erg oud, de metalen ringen staken er bijna uit, het was absoluut niet mogelijk om hierop te slapen. Één van ons heeft toen op een piepkleine bank de nacht doorgebracht! Bij het melden van dit probleem kregen we geen compensatie, alleen dat we de dag erop wel in een driepersoonskamer terecht konden! Tevens erg onfatsoenlijk personeel, met name de meneer aan de balie. We hadden spullen die in de koeling bewaard moesten worden, deze konden volgens deze man in de grote koelkast van het hotel bewaard worden.We hebben toen onze spullen aan het afgegeven. Bij het uitchecken bleek dat deze spullen bedorven waren, de koelkast waarin de spullen geplaatst waren bleek niet aangesloten te zijn op stroom! Ook bij melding hiervan kregen we een onfatsoenlijke reactie, er konden geen excuses vanaf! Alleen de lokatie is goed, verder raden wij dit hotel absoluut niet aan!

Nice place but the front desk person not cooperative with me and my family. I booked the room online for one person, although the price is the same for two adults and two kids. When I arrived with my family from international flights, he charged an extra adult charge even though I showed him the price online for the same room I booked. Very rude. No restaurant or place for food and coffee in hotel, you must walk to the next door restaurant for breakfast.

Disappointing experience - won't recommend

I asked the staff to tell us how to get to the hotel via public transport but they said it will cost 50 Euros for a airport pick up. This seemed expensive so we just took a cab which costed 18 Euros. When we got to the hotel they asked why we didn't get back re airport transport. I told them we got a cab and it costed 18 Euros. The place was a bit worn out for a start, shower tray falling off, scratched walls and etc. Shower gown had holes and amenities were very poor - there were these lumps in the conditioner which was gross. The second night, they rang us at 10.30pm and asked if they can take a smaller bed in our room. We said yes but realised that it was pretty late at night. Next morning, they knocked once and just opened our door which was rude. What if we were changing clothes?!?! We told them we don't need to bed back and that they should leave us. Breakfast was done next door at Mado but it wasn't tasty. On the third day we got there around 9.30am (breakfast was until 10am) and there were hardly anything left. There was no dishes so we asked for it but it took forever for them to sort it out. We were frustrated and just left to go to a nearby restaurant. On the last day they offered us 40 Euro to take us to the airport despite the fact that I told them it took us 18 Euros. They must think we are stupid or just really want to rip us off. I will not return to this hotel nor recommend to others. The only pros was that it was near the tram station.
