Picked this hotel due to nostalgic reasons as both my parents used to worked here and over the years I’ve spent quite some time in this place. Facilities are ok, not good but descent enough. Service level is disappointing and among the worst I’ve experienced (and I have been traveling in work around the world for more than 30 years). Very few staff members in the whole front office function (during my stay 1!) Leading to so many unnecessary delays, at times complete lack of basic service, and irritation. The main problem seems to be understaffing rather than the staff itself. In addition this is during the peak vacation period.
Secondly the room was extremely hot with no means to control the temperature. I understand it’s an old building without AC, but this problem could be at least somewhat helped with small means (a descent fan for instance instead of cheap Charlie toys).
The stay was a big disappointment. There are other hotels in this price range, my honest advice is to choose some other hotel, I know I will.
