Clean room and comfortable bed. But temperature can not be adjusted. Heater, old fashioned radiator kind, would turn on by itself at hight full blast regardless if maintenance tightened the knob during the day. Windows are too thin (single pain) so street noise is very noticeable

I was not the most happy about. I mean it whatever but. This is the first time I’ve been to a hotel that doesn’t have an AC. And the was literally the reason why I got a room for the weekend to be away from the heat stay in a nice AC’d room. Then the bathroom. That sink should have been in the shower because how would you expect to wash your face in that really tiny corner and sink especially with that counter on top. The cable is also bad. It was not a very enjoyable stay. The room didn’t have a refrigerator either. Never have I been one that didn’t have one. lol

I was there for a funeral. The Mosser was so nice and clean, there were no added inconveniences to my time there. It is in a great location, also.

This was my second time staying at The Mosser. The first visit was great—I had a cozy room with a private bathroom, and the overall experience was wonderful. That’s why I decided to book again. Unfortunately, my second stay was quite disappointing. The price was significantly higher, even though the room came without a private bathroom this time (I had to use a shared one). It almost felt like the pricing algorithm recognized that I had stayed before and liked it—so it charged more. Honestly, it didn’t feel worth the cost. While the shared bathroom was clean, the overall vibe felt more like a hostel than a hotel. My room had a door with a glass pane that let in the hallway light all night. There was a blind, but it didn’t do much to block the brightness. It was very difficult to sleep because of how lit the room stayed. Even worse, the room had poor sound insulation. I spent the entire night hearing loud street noise—specifically trucks unloading cargo just outside. It was a nightmare. I couldn’t sleep at all. In the end, I really think The Mosser should be more transparent during the booking and check-in processes—especially about the type of room, shared facilities, and noise issues. Unless you’re in urgent need of a place to stay and all the better rooms are booked, I’d avoid the shared-bathroom options here.

The Mosser is ideal if all you need is a bed and a shower at a decent price. Staff were lovely. Bed was lumpy. I have no complaints at the price!
