Not absolutely terrible but also not good. I had business to do very close to this location and other hotels were fully booked. Actually the room was acceptable but technically no amenities. You can’t use the air conditioning because they will not give you the controller. Pillow and blanket are very low quality, bed is fairly old. The reminder in the room says cleaning and towel change only in every 3 days. I clearly stayed more and cleaning / fresh towel never happened. Breakfast was kind of okey. You get eggs some salami well and bread. Don’t expect anything fresh and healthy. Coffee is close to non drinkable you should rather choose filter tea. Altogether for short stays acceptable for long term stay look for some more comfort.

I recently concluded my stay at Hotel Bara Budapest, and regrettably, my experience left much to be desired. Here's an in-depth look at the issues I encountered: 1. **Misleading Room Presentation:** The room I booked didn't align with the enticing photos showcased online, resulting in an unsatisfactory space for three occupants. 2. **Cramped Quarters:** The room's size was disproportionately small, making the bed feel cramped and diminishing the overall comfort of the stay. 3. **Unpleasant Pillows:** The provided pillows were not only uncomfortable but also displayed signs of wear and tear, contributing to a less-than-ideal rest. 4. **Inconvenient Fees Disclosures:** Upon arriving, I noticed a disheartening policy posted at the front desk. Extra fees for room changes, use of the air conditioner, and even replacing a lost access key were prominently listed. This disclosure seemed excessive and raised concerns about the hotel's commitment to guest satisfaction. 5. **Inconvenient Location:** My assigned room on the 5th floor was notably cramped due to architectural constraints, and the lack of an elevator to this floor contradicted the expectations set by the promotional materials. The actual room size deviated significantly from the depiction of the standard triple room. 6. **Service Discrepancies:** Given the hotel's 3-star rating, I expected a certain level of service. However, my requests, such as changing the pillow, were met with limited staff availability. The overall room upkeep did not align with the standards anticipated from a 3-star establishment.

The room was like a guesthouse in a county town in China. It was not good when I was in a hurry. It was difficult to book a hotel, so I was forced to choose this one. I had to pay a deposit of 20 euros to use the air conditioner remote control, which was funny. Ctrip's service is much worse than Booking.

Very basic and quite old hotel. The breakfast was very poor and the receptionist who served us was quite unfriendly. But for quality price quite good.

Reading the reviews, overall I was expecting worse. The room was a little dated but clean, the bathroom ditto. Clean sheets and towels. On the other hand, the pillows offered are really uncomfortable, the mini bar is not working and the breakfast is very poor and without a sweet proposal: I went on for three days on bread, butter and jam. The staff were friendly enough and the location was excellent for getting to the center by public transport.

I am coming from Canada. I'm extremely frustrated with the hotel and feel compelled to share my experience. The hotel consists of three buildings, none of which are any better than the others. The entrance is dark and the connections between the buildings feel like a maze of catacombs. It's a complete nightmare trying to find your room. Now let's talk about the rooms. They are downright filthy, and don't even think about finding any electrical appliances. Each room supposedly has a minimum of three single beds, but forget about any comfort because there are no pillow tops provided. Can you believe it? To make matters worse, we were completely tricked by that Turkish Holiday Website, "tatilbudur.com." They led us to this horrendous place that is worse than any hostel I've ever stayed in. I'm beyond disappointed with this hotel. The lack of cleanliness, basic amenities, and the overall experience is simply unacceptable. They need to seriously step up their game and make significant improvements.

It was and in and out stay, arrive late leave early. It’s undoubtedly tired, dated but it’s as cheap as a hostel but you’ve got an en-suite which is non negotiable. I have to speak as I find, the bedding and towels were immaculate crisp and clean as was the room. You get what you pay for and this was next to free! It did what it said on the tin, wouldn’t stay longer than an overnight; but it did what I needed from it. I’ve stayed in four star hotels for €240/ night and had stained bedding, I’m interested in cleanliness first and foremost. If you are a cheap skate with high expectations it will not fulfill!

Hotel entrance looked close and was dimly lit. No restaurant or refreshment facilities. Very unwelcoming. The room was grim with barred windows. The corridors were in darkness and I had to find the light switch with my phone. No evidence of other guests and felt eerie to stay in. Room was dirty with leaking tap in the bathroom. Mold on walls round the windows. No safe and was asked to hand in key when not in room. Did not feel safe or secure, was offered a second room when complained about the leak in the bathroom. This room was just the same. Checked out within 30 minutes. Avoid at all costs.

What a sh*thole... molds directly on the shower head, shower tiles, heavy molds in the shower window. You come into a room, dirty walls and it all looks all old. Easily could go to hotel hell series.

It finally happened: I can now easily answer to question, what was your worst hotel staying ever. It was, without any doubt, Hotel Bara, Budapest. Bad, but not crucial: - There is no mini bar in the room, nor there is safe, hair dryer, shampoo; - Wireless is creepy; - Location is not the best, considering that you have to use public transportation to reach any point of interest (which means to pay), or to go by your car (and pay for public garage); one way or another, you have to pay 10 eur/day for hotel garage, of which you will be informed at the reception upon arrival; - Very modest breakfast, without any variety, terrible so-called juice and worse coffee; Bad enough to remember for a long time: - There is a conference hall inside of hotel, which was used by a huge group of Japanese as a party hall. Hotel was echoed with terrifying, horrifying, “music” (that sounded similar as Serbian turbo folk). Japanese parties obviously didn’t think that conference hall is big enough, so they bust out in the receptionist hall and start to produce scary noise, screams, or something like that, apparently drunk, of course. And that last until midnight. No use to complaint to a receptionist. Speaking of receptionist, no use to ask him anything. If he was at his work place at all, mostly he was chatting on his mobile, without interest to help you on any topic. The worst (and more than enough to not come back here): - Bed is small, mattress was ready for changing many years ago: experience sleeping on the bed of nails, but be prepared. If you are not fakir from India, you will be in trouble. Let’s get it simple. It was not expensive, but I won’t be back, not even that it is free, not even if they pay me to come back.

Was worried about staying here after reading the reviews. It is a nice cheap and cheerful bed and breakfast, staff are friendly and will help if they can. (Don’t speak much English so therefore has to keep repeating myself) breakfast is the usual eggs.bred,cereal, rooms are a little outdated but serve their purpose. Hotel is situated about a 15 min walk to the centre and its a nice walk, there is also a bus stop just outside for those who don’t wanna walk. Not much around the hotel it’s on a main road (although you don’t hear the traffic) I enjoyed my stay here and would maybe stay again. It’s cheap,cheerful and does what’s it’s intended to do. Provide a place to sleep and fill up on breakfast.
