Consider Room Selection
Some guests mentioned that the rooms with city views are located on a busy street, leading to more movement and noise. If you prefer a quieter room, it might be best to opt for a room facing the garden or courtyard.
Check Nearby Attractions
The hotel is conveniently located near the metro, making it easy to access the city center. However, some guests noted that the immediate vicinity lacks dining options, so consider exploring the nearby cafes, bars, and shops for meals.
Be Mindful of Additional Costs
Several guests found the parking fees to be quite expensive. If you plan to drive, it might be worth exploring off-site parking options to save on costs.
Clarify Pool Access
While the hotel advertises pool facilities, guests were surprised to find that there are additional fees for pool access, and an age limit for the indoor pool. It's advisable to confirm the details of pool access before booking if this amenity is important to you.
Note Noise Levels
Some guests reported noise issues, particularly from adjacent rooms and the gym located above ground-level rooms. If you are sensitive to noise, consider requesting a room away from high-traffic areas.
Explore Dining Options
While the hotel offers a restaurant with a focus on Mediterranean and local cuisine, some guests found the breakfast selection to be limited, with hot food not consistently replenished. Exploring nearby dining options could provide more variety.
Be Aware of Room Configuration
A few guests mentioned that their reserved double rooms turned out to be triple rooms, leading to a cramped experience. It may be beneficial to confirm the room configuration upon booking to ensure it meets your needs.
Consider Public Transport
The hotel's proximity to the metro station provides convenient access to the city center. However, guests noted that during the operation hours of the metro, public transport is the main option for reaching the hotel, which could be an inconvenience for some travelers.
Check for Hidden Costs
Some guests were surprised to find that certain facilities, such as the spa, indoor pool, and gym, incurred additional charges. It's advisable to inquire about any extra costs for facilities not included in the standard room rate.
Address Communication Issues
A few guests experienced challenges with communication during the booking process and inquiring about hotel amenities. It may be helpful to proactively seek clarification on any queries to ensure a smooth experience.
