If you've got this far to read my review you have gone to far! Avoid this place. It's somehow far from the city center and all the interesting destinations. The rooms are big, with wifi, Tv and a fridge. The bathrooms are updated, but you can see that the appliances have been used a little too much. The waiters from the restaurant are a little dizzy, ordered a soup and forgot what kind of soup to bring me, billed another water etc.
It's an average hotel with basic accomodation. Recommend if you don't have high expectations. I didn't wrote such a bad review up until now because I didn't found a place that call itself hotel when in fact is a sort of jungle shack. I don't even know where to start The fact that although I had reserved a room they overbooked? That the room was smelling like the 17th century? Or the fact that the noise caused by some events in the restaurant could have woke all Craiova's dead people.
So if you are adventurous by nature, do try the wilderness of this so called hotel. I am a conference interpreter so the past 10 years or so my life has been about travelling. In Romania and abroad. So far, this has been the worst place I've ever stayed in. Here are the basics: the room stank terribly. Of old dirty people and clothes. We opened the window, a different stench came from outside. We complained, they drowned the room in a bottle of vanilla scent, making me sick and dizzy.
There was a couch in the room, it looked like a piece of props from a B rated horror movie - the one on which they kill the prostitute. There were stains of mould and grime around and in the shower cabin. The glasses were, obviously, stained. The towels and bedsheets were clean, but probably due to our repeated complaints we were punished so they did not change the towels for the whole 3 days we spent in that hole.
Poor breakfast. When we asked for a fork, the waiter suggested to find one that hasn't been used on one of the tables. No coffee, milk gone bad. To top it all, there were some highschool students staying there. They turned the whole place into a dormitory - shrieks, laughs, running along the hallway, the whole package till a. Not once. Also, she failed to mention the weekend parties held in the restaurant under our room.
