-	The bathroom cooler was on the same button like the bathroom light. It was noisy. The cofee was cold at 9.30 in the late morning. It was a little noisy when people where walking in the hallway and they where slamming doors.

+	Helpfulness and professionalism of staff. Living as we do in a country village it is useful to have somewhere in the capital where we can spend a few days in order to enjoy the life of the city. The Hotel Platanus will now be our base for such trips.

+	Price, choice of food at breakfast.
-	No internet facilities at the hotel, unless you have a laptop which you don't when on holidays. I like to be able to check my email at night or first thing in the morning. There are no alternative Internet Cafes near the hotel, so it is important that the hotel has these facilities available 24 hours per day. Breakfast finishes too early, and the bar closes too early. Given the isolated location, there are no other alternative bar facilities nearby. No double bed.

+	The breakfasts were brilliant. I loved the healthy alternatives: muesli, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, linseeds, tofu, soya milk, beansprouts, or you could go for the full Budapest breakfast of fried bread, scrambled eggs, sausage ect.
-	It was several metro stops out of the town centre on a very busy road. This wasn't a problem really as we spent most of the day out in the town.
