Simon's Tower

Inexpensive lodging option within walking distance to many attractions. Shared kitchen in the basement with a couple of fridges. Walls between rooms are rather thin, and a little bit cold in the room. A few strange characters intermittently hanging around the reception area.

I stayed at Maverick Apartments Budapest recently and had a decent overall experience. The room itself was okay — not amazing, but not bad either. The building is clearly quite old and historic, which gives it character, but it also explains why the rooms probably aren’t heavily renovated. Because of that, some things felt a bit worn. The washroom had a strong smell, and the toilet flush button was broken during my stay. I assume these issues come with maintaining an older property, though they were still noticeable. On the positive side, the location is excellent — you’re basically close to everything, which makes exploring the city very convenient. The staff were also friendly and welcoming, which definitely improved the stay. Overall, it’s a reasonable place if you mainly want a great location and don’t mind a few imperfections in the room.

The rooms were ready at the exact time they said they would be and they were clean! The staff also kept the bathrooms very clean/tidy every day. The complimentary breakfast was good, had multiple options. Very conveniently located. Overall, would stay here again 10/10
