Hotel Boutique Casa Chitic -Hotel and Restaurant STR Johann Gott nr7

Really well positioned hotel in the centre of the old town with historic features and breakfast bar in the arched cellars. Our room had lots of beams and was large and well appointed. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Nice breakfast.

We had a warm welcome and the first receptionist was very good and attentive. Reception closes at 7 pm. The hotel is very close to the market square, ideal for visiting the center. We had a suite with a double bed, single bed and a sofa pull-out bed. The latter was nice looking but the mattress was very thin and the sleeping experience not good. The suite has 2 floors. The lower floor has the bathroom and sofa bed and is illuminated by a skylight- it has shades operated by an electric motor but it didn’t always work so one night ended with the sun, because there is no staff in the hotel in the evening to help. Upstairs under the roof were beds for 3 but only small nightstands, on the floor. If you want to unpack, you first have to carry your suitcase up the spiral stairs and then crawl on the floor to use the nightstand. In the middle of the bed is a window that you cannot obscure. Bring sleeping masks. The safe is in a cupboard with hangers downstairs but so small that even my ipad didn’t fit. I was told it is for passports. Do not bring computers to this hotel. Breakfast is in an unaired cave, and it is a sad affair. The “fresh fruit” were bananas, apples and oranges. In August. In Romania. While the local markets were overflowing with seasonal fruit, no fruit salad sadly. Rolls were out at 9:30? Just eat toast. You need milk with your cereal? You have to ask for some and it comes in very small amounts. The next guest will have to ask, too. But you can profit from canned music by a band that makes saccharine cover versions of everything and manages to make all songs to seem the same. Cleaning ladies sit on the communal terrace and smoke and the smoke fills the staircase. In case you wanted to use the terrace- too bad.
