“Not recommended!”

There’s construction going on near the hotel. The view from the window depends on your luck – either you’ll get a view of garages or of the island. As for the location, I can’t say much, it really depends on your personal goals. However, the hotel itself is old, with cheap and worn-out furnishings.… more

There’s construction going on near the hotel. The view from the window depends on your luck – either you’ll get a view of garages or of the island. As for the location, I can’t say much, it really depends on your personal goals. However, the hotel itself is old, with cheap and worn-out furnishings. One major downside is the restaurants. The one on the ground floor has a particularly poor level of service. Breakfast was okay – it’s hard to mess up sliced cheese and olives. But dinner on the first night was a nightmare. Our waitress, a young woman from Kazakhstan (unfortunately, I didn’t catch her name, but she always had a braid), couldn’t take an order for fish in any language. She’s probably the worst server I’ve ever encountered. When we asked for a different waiter, we were ignored. None of the nine people in our group had a decent meal. The salads were especially awful – we felt like goats since they were basically just cabbage with little else. The cutlery was dirty, and we had to wipe it ourselves as it was covered in fingerprints. The next day, we gave the restaurant on the 11th floor a chance. The food wasn’t great, but at least the service was better. In the beauty salon, our booking was ignored. They didn’t find a replacement for someone who didn’t show up, and the same receptionist doubled as a nail technician. The other stylist, a man, didn’t even follow basic rules for drying hair properly. We decided to give the club a try as well, but when we arrived, the sofas were filthy. We had to clean them ourselves, and even when we switched seats, those couches were dirty too. Who knows how long it had been since they last cleaned. We didn’t want to spoil the mood since we were there for a wedding. Of the two elevators, one broke down the day we arrived. The other one didn’t even display the floors. At 3 AM, we were woken up by loud banging as someone hammered a door on our floor. The doors in the rooms are old and damaged. Our room itself was neat and clean, but everything felt outdated – definitely not what you’d expect from a 5-star hotel.
