“Nice place for a night's stay, but no more...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 October 2011

Having been to Romania before, but never Cluj, we arrived late in the evening and needed a place to stay. The staff here was very accomodating to us although we checked in after their normal business hours. Parking is limited and you need to park along the street, which is fine because the neighborhood is quiet and seems safe.

Our room was one of the ones without a window. It didn't bother us as there is not much to see outside in this area of town. Overall the room was nicely organized, clean, and even came equipped with an air conditioner and stocked mini bar!

I have only a few complaints because of the price of the room...The toilet and the sink were not properly attached to the wall/floor and were loose. This was a bit annoying every time I used the toilet as it rattled and shook. Also, the television was small and dated...again, it was fine BUT the remote control was so old I had to hold together the front and back and firmly press down, just to adjust the volume. These may be small things if you are in the room just to sleep. But, if you are spending a few days in Cluj-Napoca you may not want to spend them all here.

“okay for the price”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 July 2011

First off, the staff was very helpful and accomodating. The rooms however were just okay. Smoking is allowed in the rooms and they filter into your room. I did not like this at all. There is no lift, so if you have heavy luggage, you will have to take them up the stairs, so be aware of this. The restaurant food quality was fine, but the breakfast was just average. Nothing really special. There is limited parking, but it was sufficient. The hotel is located in a nice, residential area and there is a nice Chinese restaurant up the street that gives a nice view of Cluj-Napoca. Overall, though, I would probably stay at a different location.

“Romantic Romanian style with charm”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 July 2011

Never having been to Romania before, I was impressed with its history and beautiful castles with friendly people as well.

A tip for travellers - fly into Cluj-Napoca in the north to see all of the beauty of Transylvania including the very beautiful old part of Sighisoara. A great base when you fly into or out of Cluj is the charming Deja Vu bed and breakfast. Have a look at the exterior photo of the hotel and you'll see how beautiful the construction is. The same is repeated inside as you go up the stairs, and the rooms are spacious and have quiet air conditioning!!! which many Romanian hotels don't have.

Some rooms have a skylight with block out cover which is novel and effective - this s Romanian style and not a disincentive at all as suggested by a previous reviewer.

Breakfast is plentiful and fresh with everything from cooked eggs to healthy muesli.

Thanks to the ladies who run this place who were very accommodating and their English is excellent, which made things easier.

“OK for the price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 June 2011

Basic B&B in a nice residential location of the city, 15 mins walking from downtown. Not much happening around it, but taxis are very cheap to move around in Cluj. Place is very clean, rooms are small / bathrooms tiny and on the second floor rooms have no window, just a decent size skylight, which is sort of different , as long as you are not claustrophobic, and not raining. Breakfast menu is reasonable. Wireless Internet does not have proper coverage in the room, but there is wired internet .Staff very accommodating and friendly. Overall , if you want to spend a night or two is OK, reasonable value for the money, but I don't have any other reference for Cluj hotels.

Dear sirs,
Thank you very much for your review. Your opinion is very important to us, in order to improuve our services.
If the Classic room with skylight window was not as your demands, we recommend the next time a Deluxe rooms with normal window or a ground floor suite with private terrace.
We are working on wireless Internet network, and we hope that soon all rooms have access. For now, the reception and lobby area is wireless internet and on every room is cable ( wired) internet.
We hope to have you as a our guests again soon.

“not bad”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 June 2011

We booked based on reviews but were not so thrilled when we got there. This is a house that was turned into an B&B, there are some funky arrangements with windows etc. The room we had booked had no windows, only a skylight. We didn't like it and traded up to the small apartment which was better (and more $). The restaurant (we only had breakfast there) has windows that face a wall about 12" away so it's very dark. Breakfast was ok, not great. Wifi doesn't reach into all the rooms.
