Reviews and Ratings
I had mixed feelings about my stay at the hotel. The room I had was spacious and mostly clean with a nice view of the city, but I did encounter some issues with the shower. The location was a bit far from the main attractions but close to several dining options. Unfortunately, the breakfast left much to be desired, leading me to seek alternatives nearby.
I found the hotel to be decent overall, with clean and comfortable rooms. However, its location was a bit far from the main attractions, requiring a long walk. The breakfast options were quite limited, which was disappointing. On a positive note, the staff was friendly and I enjoyed a great sushi restaurant just nearby.
My stay was quite stressful due to the mishap with the hotel double-booking my room. While White Lion Hotel did manage to shift me to another property, the experience felt disorganized and left me feeling frustrated. Communication issues with staff during the incident added to my disappointment. On the upside, the lady from White Lion who assisted me was very understanding, and the overall cleanliness of the hotel was satisfactory.
I had a pleasant stay overall, with clean and spacious rooms and a great location that allowed easy access to the city center. However, the breakfast was a letdown, lacking variety and quality. The WiFi was frustratingly slow, which made things a bit inconvenient during my stay.
I stayed at this hotel during a G Adventures tour and found it to be decent but not without its drawbacks. The cleanliness and comfort of the rooms were a definite plus, and the staff members were quite friendly. However, the location is quite a trek from main attractions, and crossing the busy street can be a bit daunting for less confident travelers.
I had a pretty good experience at this hotel. The room was spacious and mostly clean, with a nice view of the city. The location was decent, allowing easy access to local eateries, though it's a bit of a walk to the main attractions. However, the breakfast was lackluster, and many rooms don’t have windows, which could be a downside for some guests.
My stay was extremely frustrating due to a major mishap where I had to be relocated to another hotel unexpectedly. While the initial hotel was clean, the handling of my belongings resulted in some valuables going missing. This entire incident left a bad taste, overshadowing any positive elements I discovered during my stay.
