Cascada Boutique Hotel

Cascada Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The property is very convenient to the train station and Old Town, tons of restaurants and shopping within walking distance. With that being said, be prepared to hear trains all night. The staff was extremely helpful and professional. The hotel is well maintained, and rooms are very clean, although not spacious, only one night stand with little to no counter space in the bathroom. We had an early departure so we missed the timing of the free breakfast and there was no grab and go available, so that would be nice if they could offer their early departure guests something since the price includes breakfast. All in all, very nice hotel in a convenient location with amazing staff."

8/10 Good
"I really liked the location of the property. It’s very convenient, centrally located, and close to public transportation, which made getting around easy. The only area that could use some improvement is the property’s condition. Some renovations or updates would enhance the overall appearance, and the hallway carpets could be cleaned or replaced, as they looked quite worn and dirty. Other than that, I had a great stay and enjoyed my overall experience."
