“Cheap, but veeeery poor quality of service.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 October 2011

This hotel was a bad experience... I was there together with my mother for 5 nights in september, and they gave us a double room. But this room was so small, there was just place for our beds and barely something else, like about 3 x 2,5 meters. It's 2 windows, on 2 different sides of the building, were both "inside windows", so that we saw just a wall from them, that's why you were feeling like living in a cave, quite dark in the daytime too.

Well we first thought ok, we will not stay much time inside, so it's not a big problem, for this cheap price. But then it came out that there are cockroaches in the bathroom... the wireless was working only down by the reception, the sound isolation was very poor. If you want to bath in hot water not during the morning, but during the midday or so, you have to turn the hot water on and wait for 20 minutes, so that it gets heated! o.0 But on the third, even this was not working, cause the water was turned off for the whole day, and the wireless too!!!!!!!!!!! Horrible! I talked with the guy on the reception about this, and he said "it's not our fault, it's the internet company's fault...". Of course this explanation should calm me down...

Of course there were some good things, like the small price, the "living room" by the reception and the dining room look really good! The breakfast was ok, although the serving man was forgetting that i am a vegetarian for 2 days in a row. And I must say, it is situated quite in the center of Bukarest!
There were some more negative things in that hotel, like that the bathroom was in a poor state, in the shower there were no isolationg walls so that the water was spraying all over the bathroom, and the walls were at some parts dark...

If you look for a cheap hotel for 1-2 days and the quality is absolutely irrelevant, than it may suite for you, but in rest i wouldn't advice it to no one. I will definitely not stay there again, and will tell my friends not to do so!

“Excellent value - perfect location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 November 2010

On a walking distance from the Historic Quarter where all the restaurants are. Although this is a budget option, the entrance and breakfast room have a certain elegance. It seems the hotel has been recently renovated - which may explain why my opinion is so different from some of the other reviewers.

“Dodgy dealers - AVOID!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 October 2010

You know when you have that niggling feeling you are being ripped off? We arrived late one miserable and wet night and phoned ahead to see availablitily. We were quoted 250 lei (about 50 pounds) for a double room. Upon arrival my fiance went to see the room while I waited - said it was small, dark but would have to do. It was late. The price list was in view and said doubles were 200 lei, apartments 250 lei. Dodgy? Yes. I pushed and pushed and were reluctantly given different keys...to a BIG apartment (living room + bedroom) Clearly they wanted a little more in low season. Breakfast was promised by the lonely planet to be impressive. It wasnt. When my fiance asked if he could have a glass of juice which was on the breakfast bar, the dodgy owner said it was an extra 5 lei (1 pound) per glass! When he asked for some yoghurt, he huffed and mumbled something under his breath. Really unprofessional.
Finally the room, at times, had a slight smell of sewerage. Not to mention the constant smell of cigarettes at reception.
Avoid at all costs but if you must, criticise the price list and question everything.

“perfect Location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 July 2009

small Hotel

personal isn´t very accommodating

not the best food, breakfast in the price

terribly small rooms for twoo, no space even for luggage, very small windows and not into the streets just to the other building wall
bathroom for double room on the floor, but nice one

Beuatiful apartman, very romantic with beuatiful furniture and nice view to the street, but very expensive

Hotel is stylized to the old style - nice
Has perfect location, near to punto Zero, to the centrum, to the nice park Cizmigiu /sorry for spelling/ and to the most important turistical places in Buchurast

“Functional no-frills rooms, great location, very helpful staff, cheapish”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 June 2009

The hotel location is central and great: by a lush park with wonderful restaurant overlooking a small lake. On the surface of it, the hotel looks quite grand in the reception area. The rooms are reasonably priced and great for low-budget traveller and being a single woman there, I felt very comfortable. The room I had was on the 5th floor and was incredibly hot even with the window open (I went in June) so a fan would have been good. The mattress was soft so those with a bad back may be disappointed! I shared a bathroom for 128 Ley which is fairly reasonable for the area. The staff however were incredibly helpful. I left at 6.00 in the morning and they packed me a breakfast!! The receptionist was also happy to practice my Romanian with me.
