The question if I would recommend the hotel to a friend isn't an easy one to answer. In fact, if you want to see the city within a few days, the hotel is totally fine. But if you stay any longer and you need some sort of comfort in your hotel room, i wouldnt stay there.
I didn't really care about the comfort, but what really annoyed me was the unpoliteness of the hotel staff. Normally, I just book a room in a hotel to sleep in, and that's fine. But i was really disappointed about the behaviour of the staff at the reception sometimes, and I only stayed two nights. They were not understanding of misunderstandings because of the language. I had the feeling, no one really knew what they were doing because every single staff member gave different answers to the same questions, which is a Problem if these questions consider prices at the hotel.
