We stayed in Enkurs for 5 nights. They gave us a big double room, even though we payed for a small double, which was pretty nice.
Even though the street is busy, the traffic didn't really bother us. The other guests in fact did (not on purpose though), because the hotel is very noisy. Every night we woke up several times because of doors slamming, footsteps and even TV-noise from other rooms. Not very nice if you're planning on getting up early to go out.
The room was kinda dirty. The walls and ceiling were covered in dirty stains, the bathroom had moald and smelled like sewer and the shower cabin leaked. During our stay, the room was never cleaned! There were hardly any guests in the hotel, so they could've at least changed the towels and emptied the garbage can.
Breakfast was OK, but strangely located in the hotel next door, which could be reached via the backyard. Not very nice when you have to walk in pouring rain and mud to get something to eat in the morning.
Location is OK. Thirty minutes walk to Old Town and a couple of bus- and tramstops in the surrounding streets.
I have to say that we didn't expect much from this hotel, because it was pretty cheap. Still, I at least expect a hotel to be clean, which was definitely not the case.
