Pleasant pension

A short and pleasant 15 minute walk into the old town of Banska Bystrica. No air conditioning but a powerful fan in the room. Nice breakfast. Only slight negative was the towel was a bit inadequate and had to do for both hand and body.

Clean room and good friendly staff but the property is surrounded by motorways and loud traffic which you can hear all night and there was no mention of so many steps. Our room was at highest level and bathroom was on on a lower floor to the bedroom and the steps were really steep and bannisters wonky and not safe

A acomodação é excelente e os funcionários são super atenciosos, mas infelizmente tive que contatar o Hoteis.com para garantir que as condições contratadas no momento da minha reserva fossem respeitadas. Queriam cobrar o café da manhã e o estacionamento, embora no momento da reserva ambos fossem gratuitos. O café da manhã acabou não sendo cobrado, mas o estacionamento sim. Além disso, o imposto municipal, que no momento em que foi feita a reserva era um determinado valor, foi cobrado em dobro. Nem mesmo me deram um comprovante do pagamento do referido imposto.

Odporúčam 😊

Ubytovanie je veľmi jednoduché nájsť. Izba bola veľmi čistá, priestranná, veľká kúpeľna a personál nesmierne milý a nápomocný. Izby majú samostatný vchod s kartovým prístupom. Ubytovanie ma kvalitné okná na odhlučnenie od hlavnej cesty a dobre postele. Priestor s izbami ma malú spoločnú miestnosť, kde si môžete ohriať jedlo, zaliať čaj, kávu a automat na nápoje a drobnosti na zjedenie. Recepcia nemá obsluhu 24/7, ale nepociťovala som to ako nejaký problém. Hosť je na to upozornený. Cena veľmi príjemná. Ubytovanie je neďaleko parku a dobre pristupné obchody/potraviny na pešo.

we were here to watch the U19 England in Banksta, place was exactly what we was looking for, close the mountains for walking and close to the main town for dining, staff pleasant and for 5 euros breakfast was well worth it.

Excellent staff but too noisy rooms

The main reason why I give up to 4 stars is the friendliness of the owner and the effort to meet every requirement. However, the huge disadvantages for me were the very noisy rooms combined with the creaking of the doors around where every single arrival or departure of another guest woke me up. Moreover, there is a small threshold on the door and light went through it into the room all the night from the corridor. Maybe it's negligible for someone, for me it was quite important for good sleep. The floor was very cold and I was cold all night because the outside temperature was 5C and the room was not yet heated. I would also enjoy the presence of cosmetic wipes in the room or a shampoo that is not foamed which unfortunately was not. Otherwise perfect location close to city center with free parking.

Great location for an overnight stay. Just off the motorway and easy to park. Staff very helpful and friendly. They directed us to the old town where we had a nice meal. Even provided a map. The room was nice and clean. Very quiet. The breakfast was plentiful and tasty. Great value for money. Thank you.
