Faulty Towers

One of the worst places I have ever stayed. It's in the red light area and drug dealing was taking place at the entrance of the hotel. The room was damp, dark and dirty and overall uncomfortable. Will never stay there again.

Bad for sleep

It was hard to sleep with all of the noise out on the street througout the night. I am suprised that the police were not called.

nice hotel but tricky location

this hotel is run by nice staff who are really helpful and kindly. the rooms are simple but thoughtfully supplied (e.g. free bottled water, nice coffee facilities). but the hotel is in heart of the red light district which will make some people very uncomfortable. (i have never however - as a woman traveller - felt unsafe in any way, and never seen 'inappropriate behaviour' inside the hotel).

Average hotel in a low level area

Rooms are comfy. Bathroom is old... Personnel is unfriendly. Overall it's all right for just one night.

No bad

It was not that bad as the location is ok but comfort is not very high. Nothing for quiet nights as it's in the middle of the red light and nightlife district.
