Short stay on budge

Hotel itself was decent for the price. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was pretty good. In a good location with a McDonald's across the street and a park about a 3 minute walk away.

This is my first time at this hotel. I was surprised at how friendly they are and that, though it's an inexpensive hotel, they provide breakfast (scrambled eggs and toast or rice cakes) included with the room. Unlike others in this price range, they also provide daily housekeeping.

Günstiges Hotel ohne Service

Leider spricht niemand englisch. Das Passwort für das Wlan habe ich an der Reception nicht erhalten und so musste ich es von einem Gast erfragen. Auch meine Reservation ist verlohren gegangen. Das Frühstück ist OK und der Preis ist günstig.

They couldn't find my reservation but I had kept the record. It is close to a metro station, a McDonald, and a government building, so l wouldn't say it's unsafe. But streets are littered with garbage. The free breakfast was provided with scrambled egg (small portion) , coffee, fruit drink and toast, which is nice. The facilities are dilapidated.
