The hotel staff are the only “stars” this hotel deserves. However, I asked three times to have my wool socks returned, which I left after the first night when I changed rooms, and I did not get them back during the next three days of my stay, nor did I receive any feedback on whether they had been found. I asked the housekeeping staff on the floor twice and the reception twice. Apart from this incident, I have no complaints about their work.
The location is also excellent. However, the hotel rooms and the spa area are definitely of a low, 3-star standard.
The wall-mounted hair dryer is small and blows only very hot air with virtually no airflow, and it has a button that must be held down for the air to work. It was a real ordeal for me because I have long hair. When I asked for a regular hair dryer, I was given a broken one wrapped in tape, which kept stopping working, with the tape constantly coming off, etc.
Another issue was the shower, with mold on the grout and the ceiling, peeling veneer on the side of the cabinet, a leaky window through which everything can be heard. A torn desk mat, dirty carpets and sofa. I am convinced—actually certain—that the cups and glasses in the rooms are not taken to be properly sterilized, but are washed by hand in the room bathrooms. Disgusting.
The final straw was the bed. The mattress itself was quite comfortable, but on top of it there was some kind of “pad,” basically a rag that rolls up and shifts. I didn’t realize this the first night
