Room 305 An average shower lasts longer than I waited for the water to heat. I gave up waiting and braved the cold! I did want a bath (even with the plug had no chain or easy way of getting it out of the plughole), but the bath/shower knob was stuck in shower position. On turning off the tap, its head fell off! The basin water grew warmish after 1 minute or so.
The plug for a table lamp came apart, and the prong part was stuck in the socket. I worried I'd not be able to charge my phone. Thankfully, I safely evicted the stuck part by reconnecting the rest of it. There is another empty power socket by thectablecand chairs.
Internet patchy.
The balcony wall is quite high. It's too high to see over if sitting.
The room and bathroom are a good size.
The window was filthy, but the room was otherwise reasonably clean.
The lavatory seat felt quite rough.
The breakfast during Ramadam was three sweet pastry items, tubs of butter, fig jam, and honey; two pots of yoghurt, a bottle of orange juice, and coffee. Though my human mummy asked for it to be swapped for tea as she is sensitive to the smell of coffee and it made her dizzy. The waitress helped kindly with Mummy's dizziness. A small plastic spoon added tack.
The elder of the reception men (night) was as useful as a chocolate teapot in the desert! And indifferent, bordering rude in manner. The slightly younger one was friendly, polite,...
Read moreThe mattress is OK, and that is the only positive point of this place. Actually is it quite surprising, when you see the quantity of prostitutes taking coffee at the bar. Incompetent managing direction, poor standard, poor quality, noisy hotel, very expensive for what they sell. Prices are nonsense and are a shame. In terms of cleaneliness, if bedrooms seem correct, you quickly get a flood in the bathroom, bugs, strong smell of waste pipes, and I do not talk about toilets of the restaurant. Lets celebrate the cook and the food now, if you want to pay more expensive a dinner than in a gastronomic French restaurant in the center of Paris and get a worst quality than the most awful fast-food you've even been to, this is your place. Vegetables are rotten, but no problem to give them to the customers, avoid fish in priority, 100 % chances to get sick, just the smell should discourage you. Breakfast is included in the price of the room, viennese pastry is dry, hard, tasteless, coffee is not coffee. For 80 euros per night, do not expect a spa or something. Better sleep under a bridge than come back here. A...
Read moreThis was my first visit to Annaba, and a frequent traveler to Annaba chose this hotel. We stayed in junior sweet rooms. It was spacious with two TVs, but nothing else was special (I wish that i had coffee/tea in the room.) Compared to other choices with the same price range, I was told the bathrooms in this hotel are more hygienic. The shower's temperature and water pressure were acceptable. The breakfast served on the 9th floor was very simple with croissant, other sweet bread, coffee, and tea. It seems you can order an omelet, but not sure it was included or not. The internet was on and off, but i believe that was an issue in the Internet provider's side. TV had some international channels. Most receptionists speak English to some extent. I took a taxi on the way to the airport, which cost 400 dinar plus 50 to go to the end of the parking at the airport so that you don't have to walk across the entire parking space. You can find free taxi in front of the hotel easily during...
