Die Stimmung am Abend war toll, habe super viele junge Leute aus den verschiedensten Ländern kennengelernt. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet. Durch eine App kommt man ins Zimmer, man fphlt sich sicher.
Bokade innan det gjordes om till hostel. Som familj med små barn är vi kanske inte önskad målgrupp men det var ett trevligt ställe, härlig atmosfär och verkligen ett ställe jag skulle rekommendera för den som gärna umgås med andra på resande fot (och då framförallt utan barn).

4 star hostel, service on point!
Newly opened so still some construction going on both inside and outside, got compensated with free late check out.
Very friendly and service oriented people, systems are not on point yet but they make up for it by being very understanding and helpful!
Really good in English so communication is very easy and smooth.
Good drinks and snacks combined with games makes time fly.
Literally just opened the day before so a couple of small issues which were dealt with promptly but will definitely be ironed out soon. Staff were excellent, very attentive and friendly. Great hostel/hotel with a good vibe. I’m sure it will only get better with time. Highly recommend a stay here for all ages.
We had a great stay at this hotel.
The staff were so friendly and very helpful especially Andrea Arru.
We did arrive when the hotel was under renovations which really did not affect our rooms and they were speedy quick doing the renovations elsewhere.
The restaurant was not open while we were there, which would of been nice.
The location of the hotel was perfect for walking.
Definitely recommend
When I arrived I was told that I would be staying at another hotel due to hotel construction. The hotel staff said they sent me a message which I showed them I never received. I was escorted to a hotel that was $10 less than what I had paid for my original hotel. The hotel staff at the Holiday Hotel is rude, the toilet is broken, and the electronics keep making loud noises.

Hotel is old and need renovations in some area. Staircase has funny noise when walking on it. Did not expect hotel to be that worn down. I had booked 2 rooms, the more expensive room I booked is not much better than the cheaper one, only extra snacks on the table. Despite all these unfavorable conditions. Staff are very friendly and helpful.

Otel, merkeze ve trene 10dk yürüme mesafesinde. Odalar standart, temiz sayılır. Balkon ve ortak alanlar çok bakımlı değildi. Sanırım otelde bakım-yenileme yapılıyordu. Kısa konaklamalar için tercih edilebilir
This hotel was NOT good… we checked in and went to shower only to find out the shower doesn’t drain at all, you can shower for 1 minute max and then it takes 5-7 minutes to drain. Notified the hotel immediately and nothing was fixed in the 3 days we were there. The room had a balcony but the metal rolling cover over it was broken so we couldn’t use it or get any airflow in the room. They were also doing renovations on the floor above ours (which we weren’t notified about in advance) so we paid full price for a room where there was EXTREMELY loud construction from 8 am until 6 pm every day we were there. Nothing about this hotel was relaxing or comforting… we were miserable while we were there. If the room had been refundable we would have moved to another hotel.

They advertised breakfast, but didn't deliver. It was close to everything, so we didn't go hungry.
