Not worth staying at
In the first room (which was ok, but a bit shabby) we had two separate beds and complained. Got a new room with a double bed which was a bit better, but the walls were, like already mentioned, very thin, the food was not good at all (we had breakfast once), the drain on the balcony gave a terrible smell to the whole room even when the windows were closed and besides the hotel we heard the very "relaxing" sounds of massive road works which ended at 0.30h in the night and startet again in the morning at 6! Plus we woke up several times during the night because of the marble floors which reflected every single sound a hundred times worse than it was.

Far from 4 star!
Very basic almost like budget accommodation. Chipped wardrobes, hole in wall and one on the bath, unbelievably paper thin walls and marble means noise throughout the corridors and other rooms travel down to yours. Woken up several times out of the 7 nights we stayed by other guests. No breakfast included and they wanted another €140 for the week if we wanted it! Do not recommend and we will not be staying there again.

Great Location value for money
We had three rooms at the Expo in August 2003 and for the rate we paid we were extremly happy at the standard of the hotel the rooms were large enough, they were clean and the air com was very welcome. The restaurant was good and the bars were very efficient. We stayed when there was nothing happening at the nearby convention centre so it was quiet and the rate was appox 50 euros a room, I know when they have a big convention the rates are much higher and you may not get the level of service that we enjoyed.

Comfortable and convenient
This hotel was very comfortable, had a good location and was an excellent value for money. We would have no reservations in recommending to anyone and indeed have done so.
