No issues! We stayed at Hotel Unicorn for 3 nights, and the rooms are basic, but everything was clean, the breakfast was good and it's close to lots of attractions.
Angus, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

There was an issue upon check-in with a friend and her room being already taken by another person. The staff member wasn’t too kind or friendly to her when trying to fix a mistake he had made while checking her in. But it was rectified in the end. Otherwise, my stay was lovely.
