6.6/10

The hotel has a promising location near several bars and restaurants, but my overall experience was disappointing due to security issues and poorly functioning amenities. The rooms were quite small and dated, and the staff lacked empathy during a stressful situation. However, the powerful shower was a plus, and the staff were generally helpful in non-crisis moments.

The hotel boasts a great location that's just a short walk to the vibrant Jewish quarter and various transport options. The rooms were decent and provided the basics for a comfortable stay, though some might find them a bit small. The service was generally helpful, but there were a few issues with the maintenance that needed addressing, which impacted the experience. The dining options, particularly breakfast, were lacking quality, making us opt for nearby alternatives.

I recently stayed at this hotel with friends, and while we loved the location and the comfortable atmosphere, the cleanliness of the floors and a rude staff member really marred our experience.
