Great location with seamless check in process. Rooms and toilets were considered dark for us, could do more with better lightings. There were also many stairs for this accommodation might be challenging if you’re coming with suitcases.

Clean modern rooms in a great area in old town. Everything worked well. We loved the layout, almost felt designed by escher with the up and down hallways. Bed was huge and comfortable, kitchenette and bathroom/shower worked great. We're glad we stayed at the LUBO.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I recently stayed at this hotel and there were definitely some strong positives. The location was fantastic, making it super convenient to get around. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and there was a really nice café on the bottom floor that added a great touch to the overall experience. The only downside was the room size. The rooms were very, very small, to the point where there wasn’t really anywhere to put luggage comfortably. So while it's a great spot with wonderful staff, just be aware that the space is a bit tight.

Overall: 9/10; Location: 10/10; Amenities: 7/10; Communication: 10/10 Great location within old town – close to the station, Chapel Bridge, and shopping areas, but also got very loud at night with outside noises. The kitchen supplies could have been better but it was helpful to have that facility. There is a check in/reservation code that was to be provided. This was booked through Expedia and the hotel was not able to provide this by email. This process needs to be improved. Hotel call support was able to walk us through it. For the first time, you will need to go up a flight of stairs (with luggage) - after that you can get to the elevator. Once checkin is done, you can enter/exit from the other side without needing to go up the stairs.
