“Returning from Italy”

We needed a place to rest after a long trip from Italy. We have used the hotel, also as a stop, two years ago, on our way to Italy and it was OK. We thought we could use it again.

We needed a place to rest after a long trip from Italy. We have used the hotel, also as a stop, two years ago, on our way to Italy and it was OK. We thought we could use it again. Coincidence, we were given the same apartment (279) we got two years ago. Only this time the beds were not prepared. In fact it looked as if somebody just left, there was also a strong human sweat smell... I went back at the reception desk to report the situation. I was offered two rooms instead (113 & 114) with the appropriate apologies, no complain there. Next day we left in a hurry as we wanted to get back home asap. Inevitably, we, in fact the kids, forgot a few things, a phone charger in the power outlet, and two flash lights. The Hotel's Neon panel was flickering in the night and two letters were completely out. They thought it's creepy, that's why they wanted the flash lights... Another particularity of the hotel is quite creepy, the only emergency exit, the escape stairs are going straight to the restaurant and the door closes at midnight... The only other access to the rooms is through a hydraulic piston powered elevator (never seen such an elevator). In spite of smoke detectors installed in every room, in case of a fire during the night, you would be basically trapped... However, no fire that night, we got home safe. When we realized the missing phone charger and flash lights, we called the hotel hoping they found them and they could send the items to us... Well, they didn't find them... This is inadmissible for a 4-star hotel charging 75 Euros/room/night. NEVER AGAIN! The hotel seems neglected and the people working there seem negligent.

“Old Fashioned”

Stayed here on a business trip as it was the closest place to stay for my meeting. The staff were friendly and welcoming which is always a good start. I ate in the restaurant as it was easy due to being a little way out of the town. The food is generally Hungarian specialities which were suitable but I’d rather have ate else where as it was just ok. The rooms well were very old school, the room I had was very orange, the wall paper and bed covers etc were the same colour. I ended up turning the light off to have a break from it. I did enjoy my stay though, it’s always good to try somewhere different. I’d stay again as there wasn’t any issues to point out
