We had a positive stay overall. Convenient location near the SGR station. Comfortable bed and great shower. Our dinner ordered from the hotel restaurant was good and came quickly, but we had to eat in our room because the AC was not on in the restaurant and it was very warm. Our booking included late check out which was helpful.

No TV, not proper WiFi, no proper hot water, if anything happens to the guest not any attention at all. Check out receptionist don’t care at all. This is the worst hotel I’ve ever been stayed. AVOID THIS SH*T COMPLETELY.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
Reliable hot water and cold AC made the stay very comfortable. The in-room safe didn’t work but not a deal-breaker. No AC or fan running in common areas (ie. Lobby) although the machines are standing there. Same for restaurant, although they did turn them on as soon as I sat down for breakfast and cooled quickly, so maybe that’s a plus for eco-conservation!

Satisfactory hotel

The room and bathroom were fine, the AC, fan and TV all worked, and breakfast was good. The location was quiet and the staff was helpful. We walked a lot and the streets around the hotel felt safe. There is nothing particularly exciting about the hotel, but there is nothing to complain about either.

Peaceful spot in the messy city

Checking in took some time, since the hotel couldn't find our reservation. Eventually we got the room, which was quite full with furniture. The balcony gave extra space, though. Everything else worked well, but the net went off and on, off and on.

Bra hotell til grei pris midt i sentrum.

Bra standard på rom, noenlunde bra frokost. Ligger veldig sentralt til, noe støy fra trafikk, samt en mengde moskeer med bønnerop fra klokken 5 om morgenen.
