I spent 3 nights there February 2023. It was my +20th time in Budapest, the first time on my own and my worst stay. I wanted to be away from the center and big hotels for a change. I was utterly disappointed and reminded of times long past when Hungary was still part of the Eastern Block.
1. Prices for 2 were the same as for one (I was by myself) when I stayed. Instead of a nice big room as in the pictures I got a very small room onto the street and next to the entrance. the staircase leading to the front door let people see right into my room. The noise level was extremely high til late at night (morning) as everyone had to pass past my room/door unlocking/locking and passing through 3 creaking doors. I asked for a bright, quiet room upstairs and out the back with a balcony. Even though there were empty rooms, the owner would not let me change. So even though I paid for two people i got the single room bum deal. Very discriminatory.
2. I was by far the oldest person (53) there. Every one else was in their early 20s.
3. Breakfast is not buffet. It's served (3 half slices of ham, 3 slices of salami, 4 small slices of cheese. Everything lowest possible quality.) Coffee is lousy. Bread is of the cheapest white kind, stale and old. Everyone sits down at one big table as in the picture.
4. Front door has to be locked at all times which no one told me. The owner treated me and scolded me like a misbehaving child for not having locked on day 1. The lack of respect for a grown woma
