Room 404 smelt strong cigarettes smoke
I want to change room
It was in a great location and the staff was very accommodating. If you need a microwave or kitchen, it’s located in the basement of the property. Only a very small fridge in the room.
I found the virtual check-in extremely simply and all my interactions with Kasa to be prompt and helpful. The building itself has a lot of character. My 3rd floor room overlooking the street was clean and spacious and also bright which got me up in the mornings and the water was always hot. I had a couple of initial concerns when I first arrived. The bathroom sink was very small and I'm not sure why because there was more than enough space for a bigger one, however I managed just fine. The gap under the room door meant noise leakage from the lift door being used and people walking around, but it was only a temporary focus of concern. I read about the challenges of the surrounding area and whilst I never felt unsafe there was quite a lot of noise during the nights. Maybe something could be done to soundproof or upgrade the windows? This being said, I had a really good time and my lasting memories are very positive and would stay again.
Terrible! Don’t book this hotel. The quality, cleanliness, management and overall vibe are simply terrible. The room had broken furniture, nasty rug with stains everywhere, drawers with food crumbs and dust, stuffy room that smells really bad and that has never been renovated. The fans in the bathroom were loud. There was no hot water.
There is no front desk at the hotel. Everything is handled virtually. Customer service refused to issue a refund after I requested an early check out. This is despite the pictures I shared, all the phone conversations, text messages, emails and having to wait several hours. They refused to accommodate in any way even though I had booked a full week and simply wanted to leave.
The room was clean and enough space for 2. The location was convenient. The only problem was the elevator, it small and if someone doesn’t close the metal bar all the way, the elevator will not move. It happened to us 3 times in one day. The elevator was stuck on 1st floor and we were on the 6th, then again when I was on the first floor, it was stuck on the 5th floor. We had to leave early due to emergency, on our way to leave it, it was stuck again. I had to walk down the stairs again to close the metal bar so the elevator can move. We had a lot of stuff so we couldn’t just walk down the stairs with it. That was the most inconvenient part about it and the other is parking.
The rooms was dirty, there was no hot water. It didn't look anything like the photographs. It was in a dangerous area with people screaming and running around naked outside the hotel at 3:00 am! Absolutely nothing good to say about this hotelj - except that the towels were clean.

Should be better
The heater leaves much to be desired. Besides being bad, it varies from one day to another, causing the room to become very hot on certain days, even without changing anything, and the external temperature was similar. Apartments 201 and 301 are extremely noisy, there is no kind of acoustic insulation to reduce the street noise. It should have a place to leave used towels (due to the conditions of the Kasa, it was not possible to dry the towel) and get new towels. 6 days with same towels. The bathroom is cold and the shower has low water flow (low pressure too). Adding the two facts, the shower is very bad.
