Very good

Amazing staff. However, the only challenge was at the place to check in was a bit of a walk from the actual location and you have to pay a fee if you’re not within the timeframe that they want for a check-in.
It was not great. Had to walk to another place to drop our bags. Which was not communicated before. The bed was dirty. A fake pair of eyelash was found on the towel. The floor was filthy. The bed was broken with the straps being broken. It was very uncomfortable

We were surprised that we had to walk to other street to register and get the keys and walk back to the same place to enter our room. All our luggage we had to carry out with us back and forth. Not convenient at all...
Room was dirty, bed sheets hadn’t been cleaned upon arrival. They cleaned them the next day and said they would refund us for the night but then only gave us €50 back. After a long conversation gave us another €50, but that still wasn’t enough to cover the night. The mattress had a huge crater and was extremely uncomfortable. Shower had mold. WiFi didn’t work.

Amazing location close to everything. Check in is at a different location from the property so walking with the luggage through the streets was a work out.

Enjoyed the stay
Excellent location. Nice big room. Check in in another building that takes few minutes to walk to. No elevator. Poor Wi-Fi. Enjoyed the stay overall.
There is no available staff or personnel to assist with problems during the next get hours. We had someone knocking on our door during the night. I had no one to help me with this issue.
no concierge, we did fine without, but nice to be able to ask questions, check in with someone about sights.

Disliked: Cleanliness
This accommodation is very near of the tourist spots, nevertheless, It’s a little tricky to get to the actual accommodation, the reception it’s in another building in another street and its not very easy to enter the rooms. It’s clean and very practical.
Check in was at a different location. Were told check in was at 3 p.m. so left our bags at a paid facility only to be told the room was ready at 1:30 p.m.! They can keep your bags for a charge but the office closes at 6 p.m.! The room was small and looked nothing like the photos of it. The heating is centrally controlled and wasn't turned on when we were there and it was a cold room! The bathroom had mould in the shower and didn't really feel very clean. Great location but defintley overpriced for what you get for your money.

We had problems with mosquitos and possibly bed bugs. Also, we were told 1ft floor....they might have considered it 1st floor but it was still 48 stairs to our room. Good location.

Bed was pretty bad and the bathroom wasn’t the greatest. Good location. Had to lock room from inside which was odd.
This place is not a hotel more like a hostel. To be honest may be one of the nastiest places I've ever stayed in. The bathroom was covered with mold, look like a fast clean from the previous guest, no elevator keep in mind if carrying a lot of luggage, and the room was just very unwelcoming. The photos definitely fooled me, looks nothing like the photos. I would never recommended this place to a friend and never stay here again!

While the listing did warn that there could be night noise from the area, nothing could be heard from the streets. All of the noise was from other rooms in the residence. The floors are very thin and the tv in the room above us was on throughout the nights we stayed. Rooms are decorated nicely but showing some aging and cleaning is needed around the baseboards and in the shower.
