2-Star Hotels in Pest, Hungary

Although I initially had a bit of an unpleasant experience, I later found a solution myself. The hostel itself has excellent facilities; the location is great, and the surrounding area is nice. The corridor walls are very unique, painted stark white, very clean, and almost cave-like.

This hotel excels in cost performance, location, and service. Pros: ・Room and Bed: Very clean and air-conditioned. I was able to sleep soundly. ・Bathroom: The toilet, sink, and shower room were clean. The shower pressure was also appropriate. ・Staff & Service: The front desk staff were kind and courteous. The free luggage storage before check-in and after check-out was very convenient. ・Lobby Environment: The area around the front desk was clean, and I was able to wait comfortably until my departure time even after checking out. ・Location: About a 10-minute walk from the station. There are many delicious restaurants and hawker centers nearby, making it an excellent location. Cons: ・I was a bit concerned about a slight odor from the bathroom drain. If that could be improved, it would be a perfect score. Overall, it offers excellent value for money and is a highly recommended hotel as a base for sightseeing.

Each bed in the dorm is equipped with a fan and central air conditioning, making it very cool in the summer. The bathroom is clean and odor-free, and the facilities are well-maintained. The location is also easy to find, with several restaurants downstairs for convenient dining. It's only a few minutes' walk to the airport shuttle bus stop, which is great for catching early morning flights.

It’s location is close to the tram line and some shops and restaurants. Also, staff in the hotel is super welcoming. Highly recommended. One last thing I like about is the locker they provide for each guest in the room - very spacious- two suit cases could fit in and there are drawers to store more things so you don’t need to keep opening your suitcase.

They were very attentive. I arrived early in the morning and dropped off my luggage. They kindly offered me a complimentary breakfast, which was great. The room was a bit small, but it wasn't an issue at all. They even helped me out after check-out. Thank you, Avenue!

The hotel is newly renovated and clean. That's the only upside to it. The price is not worth it. You need an access code to the building which the hotel didn't provide before your arrival to prepare you for it which leads to you having to call them middle of night and not even sure if it's the right hotel. The entrance is very dodgy and you will find homeless people sleeping near the entrance every night which makes it feel very uninviting and unsafe. The staff are mostly new to hospitality or mainly students. The curtain was broken when we first arrived to close it. The sheets were not the right size for the bed, they did not use a fitted sheet but just a queen sized sheeet that only covered the top of the bed with nothing securing it, so they came off mattress as I slept at night. Wound up sleeping on the mattress half the time. The cleaning lady didn’t clean my room despite hanging the notice on the door and notifying the reception. Avoid this place and with the same price, you'll get better service and proper quality hotel.

## Ambiance: The hotel boasts a lovely inner courtyard and a nice backyard. The lobby is also quite spacious, offering plenty of common areas and pleasant background music. ## Room: 1. I opted for a double bed room, which felt a bit cramped. It was roughly 15 square meters, not very comfortable, poorly ventilated, and lacking in natural light. However, it was a good price for a solo traveler. 2. The room window couldn't open fully, only a small slit, and it was a tall, narrow window. There was air conditioning in the room. 3. The bathroom did have some noise, as the exhaust fan seemed to be constantly on, but it was acceptable. It had a wet/dry separation, and the bathroom itself was spacious, though the shower stall felt a bit tight when closing the door. There was a hairdryer, and typical of European bathrooms, the trash cans were quite small. 4. I recall the room desk being small. The bed appeared to be two 2-meter by 0.9-meter beds pushed together. ## Service: The hotel staff were quite enthusiastic. ## Location: Hostels are typically in city centers, and this one has a decent location. There were even scooters outside the entrance, and nearby, there were snack shops open late at night, attracting many young people.

Did not sleep well here at all. There is no privacy in the room, it's not expensive or difficult to put up some sheets or curtains. Very poor effort. It's like sharing a room with your siblings all over again. Very thin walls too so the next door group kept us awake It's supposed to be quiet after 10pm but they all late check in, as a result I was woken by 2am check ins. The socket next to my bed didn't work, neither did the lamp. The pillow is dreadful. The bed is ok. Window didn't close fully and no curtains so sunrise woke me up. Excellent kitchen, comfortable lounge areas, 3 showers & 1 bathroom. All cleaned reasonably well. Check in was easy enough, she is very friendly. The building is absolutely beautiful. The entrance is next to PIZZA ME and a money exchange/kebab store. Supermarkets nearby. Metro & tram nearby. It is in an excellent location. It was cheap and actually good value, I just didn't sleep well If you like privacy and quiet then maybe give this one a swerve

Cons: Not so great initially - strong smell on the room, noise on the street but sorted out quickly. Thanks to prompt action by the management. In most of my stay, floor on the shared bathroom is always wet and no proper ventilation. Lockers are outside the bedrooms so it’s worth having a spare bag for some essential items that you need to keep next to you. Duvet slightly short for tall person. My roommate’s bed was creaking loudly even with simple movement. Pros: Near bus stop and metro station. Near to the popular thermal bath - Széchenyi, and tourist spots Heroes’ Square. Accommodating reception. Things to improve: Proper ventilation and floor rug in the bathroom. Long duvet, cleaner bedsheets and duvet cover and pillow. Overall: If you stay most of the time outside and it’s okay. Main gate always open, occupants got a key for main door but most of time it’s also open. I guess for the price, you get what you paid for.

I wanted to drop off my luggage before the early check-in, so I went to the building where the hotel is located. However, I struggled to figure out how to ring the bell at the building's front door. The hotel occupies only one floor on the second level of the building. Although there's an elevator inside, it requires a special key, so I had to carry my luggage up the stairs initially. Despite being an old building, the rooms have been nicely renovated, and the shower room was spacious with no issues. The only downside was that the Wi-Fi didn't work in the room, so I had to go to the common area, which was inconvenient. Breakfast isn't included, but the location is very convenient for getting around, making it suitable for sightseeing.
