“Good and bad points”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2011
2
people found this review helpful

Good value with friendly, helpful staff and a good continental breakfast. Good bus links from outside of the hotel to the city centre.

The lift wasn't working so we had to walk up approximately 40 stairs with all of our luggage. The room was very hot with no air conditioning and situated on a busy road so very noisy with the window open. The beds were very hard and the duvet did not fit inside the cover properly. Rooms (in particular the bedding) need modernising and freshening up.

Bathroom cleaned thoroughly everyday but the shower curtain needed replacing and the shower head didn't attach to the wall so you had to hold it over your head when showering but water pressure and temperature was good.

“Horrible! Don't be fooled!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 July 2011

Once we saw our room we immediately checked out. We had to pay for one night's stay and the manager refused to make an exception. She said they would call the Police if we did not pay for one night. Rooms are very small, the bed was very hard. The manager said, "What do you expect from a 3 star hotel?" We expected to receive what was advertised. The photos must have been taken years ago. Walking into the hotel was like going back in time 30 years ago. Don't make the mistake we made and book this hotel. Almost no guests were there so they may not be open much longer. Our room view looked out to the back of the hotel at ground level. Anyone could walk up to the window and see into the room.

Room Tip: There are no good views in this hotel. either you look out onto a busy street or to the back of the...

“Aweful”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 May 2011

people found this review helpful

I reached the hotel after 30 hours of flight from Mexico. But what the hotel had to offer was a room some where remotely located in the gallery. The path leading to my room resembled a bunker. Only difference was a bunker is underground, but here I had to climb stairs (atleast 30, with 25 KG of luggage). The rooms were shabby. The blankets didn't covered my feet and there was continuous sound of broken glasses throughout the night. Probably some window was open. My advice - never book this hotel.

“A nightmare”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 May 2011
6
people found this review helpful

The hotel was suggested by the organizers of a conference, so we booked without thinking twice. The rooms are dirty and I found blood stains on my pillows and towels. I was sharing a room with a colleague and we have been sleeping on couches. The sheets did not even cover the whole couch. The shower did not have warm water, the room was done one day yes and the other no. The people at the front desk are lazy and far away from being polite. A colleague had bugs in her room. The room was stinky, dirty and dusty. This has been so far the worst stay ever. It has been a problem to ask for towels and soap bars since the personnel has been complaining. The worst thing is that the staff is clearly cheating/exploiting/tricking you. Do not go there if you have (minimum) hygienic standards.

“My, those beds were hard!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 September 2009

Hotel is actually fine apart from 2 things: the beds are near impossible to get a good nights sleep in as they are so hard it's back-breaking, and the girl working the breakfast kept telling people off for all kinds of things. Seriously, there is no need to shout at people because they get things wrong! Location is a little out of central Budapest as it's on the Buda side, but transport into town is easy.
