대체로 만족스런 스테이

근처에 맥시마와 리미 슈퍼마켓이 있어서 편했어요. 주차가 무료인 것도 좋았고요. 욕조가 있어서 반식욕도 하고 잘 쉬었어요. 다만 냉장고가 작동을 안해서 리셉션에 전화했는데 기술담당자가 퇴근해서 도와줄 수 없다는 말을 들었네요. 결국 냉장고에 보관했던 음식은 버렸어요

Reasonable Budget Hotel.

Budget Hotel with no 'frills'. Clean and presentable, but there is no Tea/coffee facility in the rooms. A trip to reception and get a Coffee is required. Not a problem for most but I expected the rooms to have this facility. The rooms are simple, clean but could do with some minor updating to the bathrooms. Generally a good stay over Hotel that is slightly out of the main Riga area centre.

Dobry hotel z bezpłatnym parkingiem.

Pokój Delux - stare wyposażenie pokoju i łazienki, obdrapane drzwi, powycierane stare biurko, stara wykładzina na podłodze, stare wyposażenie łazienki, wanna z plastikową zasłonką. Klimatyzacja nie działa (25 kwietnia). Czas na remont! Lepiej nie nazywać tego pokoju Delux. W dodatku hotel pobiera kaucję 50 euro w gotówce, za nocleg w tym pokoju!!! Czajnik oraz ekspres do kawy na kapsułki, w pokoju. Parking bezpłatny. Śniadania dobre.
