Easy for a business traveller. Simple but good.
Parking a bit of a problem. Better have a clear idea of where you are going to park before you get there. There is parkign but you have to know where to find it and how to pay it.

Well below my expectation, the hotel room was austere & very spartan. Not spacious, and felt cramped. Very dated - reminiscent of the Yugoslavian bygone eras. No small ref - that’s OK, but no ice bucket nor ice dispensers. We had to very inconveniently ask for ice from restaurant.
The front desk clerk staff was so-so, especially morning desk staff. Not friendly, not receptive, but not too unpleasant. Again, like a Yugoslavian bygone era, the demeanor was rather cold & unwelcoming. Spartan engagement from the morning desk staff. (Some hospitality training would do).
The restaurant-breakfast staff was night & day to the desk staff… the restaurant staff was accomodating, friendly & courteous.
The housekeeping staff was above expectation, and as a guest, I felt they had pride in their work. Friendly & efficient too.
Parking amenities are quite austere. You ae essentially on your own. And if you’re new in town, to reduce stress… just park in parking garage or parking lot away from the hotel (Use Google Map for hints).
In relation to parking, since there is not entry way into the hotel… no opening reception to unload & load. Car, van or bus have to double park with hazard-lights on, which gave the guest an unsafe & rather dangerous setting, as other cars wheeze by.
There were some loud jackhammer noices reverberating through the area at 4:30 AM. But in fairness, it’s all over the downtown Rijeka area - as there was massive street construction & renovation going on.

The rooms are clean
However I didn't like to stay in a room which was given to a smoker before me
Although I needed a kettle for my medical requirements the hotel couldn't provide me a kettle
Such hotels such also provide a single use slippers

Furniture from 1980s. Very small shower. No parking. Coffee quality is like during communist times. Smashed mosquito remains with blood stains on the wall. The last time the breakfast area was painted must have been 10-15 years ago.

The hotel is just off of the Main Street so it is quiet, however the hotel itself was a little disappointing. The bed was very uncomfortable and we had one flat pillow. The curtains would not shut all the way due to the net curtain being attached to the actual curtains. The WiFi would only reach certain areas of the room making it very inconsistent. The breakfast was ok, the hot food was better than the continental. The staff were friendly and helpful but we probably wouldn’t stay again.
