I really wanted to love this place because the rooms seemed pretty at first and it was a great location but after 3 nights I just can’t recommend it. Firstly, there is no safe in the rooms (crucial, in my opinion, for storing valuables - money, passport, gadgets etc.) and also no mini fridge (I don’t need a mini bar but a fridge to store food, especially when breakfast is not provided, is really handy.) When I booked, the info stated that the room would have both a fridge and a safe. Not OK. Secondly, the hotel is very loud - not the location or the other guests, which were both lovely and quiet, but the actual building itself. The walls are so thin you can hear everything: phones vibrating in other rooms, water running very noisily down the pipes. On my last night, the shower starting dripping incessantly at about 1am. It sounded like bubble wrap being popped loudly and nothing would stop it. Because there is no 24 hour reception, there was no one to call to fix it or complain. Even shutting the bathroom door didn’t help. To make matters worse, the cleaners had left the bathmat in the shower (???) so when the shower dripped it soaked everything. For the price of this place, I expected so much better.
