“Good and cheap choice for a few days!”
+Everything spotless clean. Check in and check put super easy. Good bed for comfortable sleep. Broken carpet on the stairs was fixed right away. Bus stop right in front the house. Busses take you to the city center or to a big shopping center. Everything's walkable too (~35 minutes to the old town, ~20 minutes to the shopping center, ~10 minutes to the closest Tesco Express).
−The Bathroom outside the room was no surprise, but inside the room is not even a sink or a mirror. The bathroom has no power outlet, so you can't dry your hair there. It's all pretty inconvenient.

“Acceptable stay most suitable for young people for a short stay”
+Fine room for a short stay. The public transport was very close and easy to use.
−The cleaning was not at its best in the bathroom. The towels had stains that was not fully cleaned and there was a dirty glass left on the zink. The functionality of the bathroom was okay but the water temperature changed a lot during a shower.

“Good price”
+Nice room with a good view and easy to arrive with public transport
−We went there during a huge storm, windows weren’t really doing anything to stop the wind, too bad

+Location (the bus stop is literally across the street), self-checking, self-managed luggage storage after checkout
−- there was no wifi in the room (router was too far, impossible to get a signal in the room we were staying in) - beds were too hard (both mattresses and pillows causing a back and neck pain both to me and my wife). We are not spoiled travellers, but this was a bit too much even for us - room got really cold when temperatures reached 0 degrees in the night

−The location is a little far away from the city centre in case you plan on walking around to all the attractions.

+Kiváló ár-érték arány, főút mellett van, így több busz visz egyenesen a városba, self check inn
−Éjszakára kell a füldugó a buszok miatt

“Buona soluzione per una notte”
+C’era tutto il necessario. Possibilità di self check in e check out e deposito bagagli. Situato in una zona residenziale poco fuori dal centro ma adiacente ad una zona ben fornita di locali, pub, bar e negozi. Fermato del bus appena sotto sia per il centro che da aeroporto o stazione.
−Un po’ rumorosa perchè su strada. Ma penso dipenda dalla posizione e affaccio della camera. Nessuna interazione con il personale che comunque resta disponibile telefonicamente
