This hotel has a number of advantages and disadvantages.
1. I did not book a room here, but my previous hotel refused to check me in due to lack of rooms, and on January 2, I was moved here, which I am glad because finding a hotel in the city center during the holidays is a blessing.
2. The location is excellent (please note that taxis are not allowed in the old town, and it takes 2 minutes to walk from Gosha Gala to the hotel)
3. My room was changed due to the lack of hot water in the shower, and, in general, the staff tried to make my stay as comfortable as possible, including changing the shower system and tolerating my tantrum when a taxi did not arrive for me at the airport (the check-in desk employee later helped me with this)
3. I was disappointed by the poor breakfast and expired yogurts, and the food that was on the buffet. If possible, go to the Qaynana restaurant around the corner for breakfast.
Of the cons:
There is a feeling that money has not been invested in the hotel for a long time, and cosmetic repairs are needed, mattresses are replaced in the rooms, sometimes there is a strange smell.
In any case, if you are an unassuming guest, this hotel benefits from its location and attitude to the guests' problems.
The location is great. At breakfast, you can see the Caspian Sea from the veranda. At any time, you can go out for a walk along the old streets. We've been there a long time and the staff was very helpful. As it seemed to me, we are sincerely glad to have guests from the post-Soviet space
