Reviews and Ratings
I had a great stay at this hotel. The rooms were smallish but perfect for our needs, incorporating open-style wash facilities and being spotlessly clean. The staff was welcoming and helpful, but a few interactions left something to be desired. The location was very convenient, central to all the main attractions. The dining experience offered a wide range of options, although slightly pricey. Overall, a comfortable and reasonably priced stay with some minor drawbacks.
I found the hotel to be a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were clean and neat but had a view of a cement wall and poor wifi reception. The overwhelming smell of bleach in the room made my eyes water, and being in the noisy basement near the air cons was a downside. However, the service was exceptionally helpful, and the location was excellent, offering a variety of seating areas and working spaces.

The hotel has its charms, with spacious rooms featuring ample tables which might lack a cozy feel but are practical for busy dining times. The separate bathroom with a lockable entrance adds a touch of privacy, though not all rooms offer this feature.

The location was brilliant, centrally located between the Guggenheim Museum and the Old Town, making it safe to explore day or night. The service was a mix of English-speaking helpful staff with some inconvenience, as they seemed indifferent and not accommodating. The dining experience was impressive with a gluten-free corner but lacked self-service food options.
