Hotel Columbia

Hotel Columbia

8/10 Good
"-Perfect location. Very central, lots of good restaurants and night life near by, and public transport (train station, buses) are in walking distance. -Simple and functional room which is just what I needed; somewhere to lay my head after days of exploring, to take a shower and have a good breakfast in the morning. Bed was comfy and air con worked well. The shower was small but really good water pressure and hot water. -Always warmly greeted by staff and they allowed me to store my luggage for the day I went home as I had a late flight. - Fantastic price. -I would advise bringing ear plugs if you are a light sleeper like me as it can be a little noisy due to being centrally located near restaurants etc open til late , other guests coming in late. -There didn't appear to be an elevator, stairs only. Something to consider if you struggle with stairs."
