I saw the hotel when I got off the bus. It was about a 4-minute walk to the hotel. It only takes 20 minutes to get to the city center by tram 1 or subway M3. The transportation is very convenient. Take tram 1 for 2 stops to Mester utca / Könyves Kálmán körút station ID: F01509, where there is a shopping mall with 2 large supermarkets and a food court. The hotel's continental breakfast buffet has a wide variety of delicious and good quality, and is a 4-star breakfast level; the hotel room is about 88% new, with 2 single beds. Although the room is not big, it can accommodate 2 24-inch suitcases; there are small tables, seats, TVs, hangers and small safes, but there are no electric kettles and small refrigerators, which is inconvenient. In addition, there are enough power sockets, the bed sheets are white, clean and comfortable, the central air conditioner is cold and quiet, and the WIFI speed is fast. The toilet and bathroom are separated into dry and wet areas, with a bathtub , the tap water is clear, the toilet is clean and drains quickly, and the hot water in the shower is OK. This hotel is cost-effective and I will consider it again when I come to Budapest.

Location is uninteresting and the hotel is only worth the stay if you absolutely need to be at this location (stadium or bus station). The room I got was small and dark, facing inward and without windows that could open. I asked to change to a room facing the street with more natural light but was told there were no free rooms left. Instead I received a coupon for a free drink in the restaurant, which was a nice gesture but did not solve the problem because the music was too loud to be able to work quietly there. The breakfast (not included; approx. HUF 4000 or EUR 10 ) was good value for money. Staff was very friendly (except for one male receptionist) but inexperienced and slow. Absolutely ridiculous that no drinking water is provided nor a water kettle in the room to boil (chlorine) tap water. I ended up having to buy two tiny bottles (250 cl) for HUF 1200 (EUR 3) each at the reception. If it wasn't for it's proximity to the bus station (Flixbus) I would not stay here.

The hotel was located at some distance away from the city centre. Nevertheless, travelling to the city centre was quite convenient as we could take the tram for one stop and then the metro for four to five stops. The room was clean and was quite spacious.

Location is good as just opposite to the tram station and walking distance to the train station but there is no convenient store nearby.

We stayed for 4 days, and we enjoyed it. Breakfast was great and public transport is very accessible from this location.

Great stay and brilliant value for money. Staff were helpful and the room was very modern, clean, and comfortable.
