City Gate

The hotel is really lovely! I liked most of all the hotel's location nearby the Old Centre and market where I could buy "village" national food and its low price per night. Breakfast was rich and quite enough to "fill in" oneself in the morning before the whole day of city exploring. The staff was very friendly and helpful to me. Since I'm from Moscow, Russia, I appreciated it that all staff spoke Russian without any problem and did not treat the Russian visitors as their old enemies. The room was clean and cosy, all furniture was new and in a perfect condition. All facilities were in order and worked fine.

Just one thing could be improved about this lovely hotel: heating system in the bedroom. While in the bathroom heater worked well, I can't say the same about my bedroom. In spite of the fact that I turned the temperature level switch to 5 - its maximum position - it was still a little bit cold in the room all night. It is not a problem for those travelling in summer time, but since I was there in the middle of November, I would have appreciated the higher temperature in my bedroom. Apart from that, I've nothing to complain about!

the staff was extremely friendly and helpfull. The room was spacious and comfortable

we got a smoking room (there doesnt seem to be a choice in that respect ie all rooms are for smokers). Also, there was a little plumbing problem resulting in unpleasant smell.

Nice and very friendly staff, comfortable bed and room.
