"We didn’t have high expectations from this place. Check in person wasn’t speaking English but was very helpful. Rooms were clean and beds were comfortable. The common area and specially the restrooms and showers were not very clean. Location is in a middle of nowhere. The price was super high due to the Euro 24 championship. Ok stay but we will probably not stay there again. "
