EA Hotel Populus

Very Poor

  : The suite was alright, the windows all around were great. The available terrace was big, but I didn't use it. Cleaners were nice and friendly. Availability of secure parking is a big bonus.
  : I tried both the suite and a double room and there was a considerable difference. I booked a suite, but when we arrived in the evening, there was an unprofessional and lazy receptionist. He told us that the suite is already occupied and we were given a double room instead. I showed him a proof from booking.com that we booked a suite, but he waved at it and said that it just must not be true. Unbelievable! Luckily, we were moved to the suite the next day as the double room was in a horrific state. Considering the room was completely clean in the morning already, it looked like the receptionist lied to us and no one actually stayed in the suite! I don't know if they are running some sort of a scam with that room... The hotel is very dirty, the kind of dirt thats ingrained. Stains of all kinds everywhere, on carpets, curtains, chairs, couches of all rooms... In the double room, the bathroom curtain looked like it was burned, there were strange poo like bits on the ceiling of the room, wall paint was broken, lightbulb missing... The room was badly built and had a space for a fridge that was missing.The suite also had stains on the carpet, chairs, and couches, but it looked much cleaner overall. Bathroom had no shower curtain even though it has a bath, making it very uncomfortable to shower. Bed mattresses were super uncomfortable!! Plus they give you a huge pillow that too is not comfortable. I had a neck and back ache the whole time. Breakfast was poor, eggs were scrambled but in such a strange way it looked more like a vomit, the breakfast area was alright, but its closed for the whole day. There is no restaurant or place to sit during the day and in the evening. That's bad, because there is really only one restaurant in the vicinity that is not bad. Otherwise one has to take a public transport or drive everywhere.

  : The manager was friendly
  : The room was not as advertised, the bathroom was not in pristine condition. After talking to the management, i was changed without hesitation to a new room which was similar to the one in pictures. The building feels old and also requires some paints, additionally several walls were dirty and the bathroom ceiling had some humidity. I was shocked to learn they changes towels after a 4th day only, and no room cleaning.
