The hotel's rooms had a nostalgic feel like something out of the 60s, with old furniture and some cleanliness issues, not meeting standard expectations. However, the rooms were spacious and comfortable. The hot and stuffy atmosphere with no ventilation was a downside.

I found the hotel to be a budget-friendly option for resting my head after exploring Budapest. The rooms were a bit challenging due to issues like bathroom mold and a non-functional air conditioner, but the price was affordable. The location was excellent, close to major attractions and the Danube River, though some parts needed upgrading. Dining options were limited, and service was a mixed bag with some unfriendliness, yet they did help with arranging taxis and recommendations. Overall, a decent choice for budget-conscious travelers.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, right by the river in Budapest amidst cafes, shops, and eateries, but the room conditions were a bit of a letdown with temperature issues and outdated furnishings. The service had its moments of warmth but also some unpleasant interactions. The dining experience ranged from ok to fantastic, and the facilities were decent overall.

Rooms

The room was a mix of good and bad. It was nice and clean, but the temperature control was a nightmare. I had to deal with a room that was either uncomfortably hot or cold throughout the night, which affected my sleep quality. The outdated decor and signs of wear and tear didn't contribute positively to my overall comfort.

Service
