Convenient location and value for money

The hotel offers all the basic amenities you would expect and is good value for money situated in a very central location with walkable distance from the city centre. The food was good, but could do with a bit more variety. Staff were also friendly and welcoming and the room was clean and comfortable.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was very efficient and convenient to be able to check in online in advance. The room was small but functional and comfortable. As mentioned in the reviews, the shower room was small, but I didn't mind. It was nice that the tap water was drinkable. I stayed in a triple room (double bed + bunk bed), but when lying on the double bed, I hit my hip on the corner (bottom part) of the bunk bed. My wife also hit her hip, so I don’t think it was just my carelessness. I’m sure other guests have also hit their hips, but they just didn’t report it out of embarrassment. Surprisingly, I slept well on the bunk bed. I slept soundly for nearly four hours on the bunk bed and then slept for about five hours on the double bed. The toilet paper was a bit cheap. This summer, I stayed at affordable hotels in Munich, Salzburg, and Spiez, but the toilet paper at this hotel seemed to be the roughest on the skin. However, I personally don’t mind. Overall, I think it’s a comfortable hotel.

Believe the name.

I’ve stayed at Ibis across several continents, it is budget, yes. This one has budget in the name! It’s the “budgetious” one I’ve ever seen. Staff was very nice, but bring your own hair dryer, conditioner and ear plugs.

Instead of the afternoon our flight was delayed by 5 hours, so we only got to the hotel before midnight and the next morning we had to leave early, so we only used the hotel for a few hours sleep. The room was a shoe box for 3 people. The bunk bed was uncomfortable and it was expensive for what it was. The sink was in the room.

Definitely get what you pay for. It’s a good cheap hotel, however the AC doesn’t work at all and you have to get a key to unlock window (they don’t tell you this). The toilet room has no lock and is closet. Also gave us small sized towels? Think of this place as a glorified hostel but not much more
