Hotel was located in a very convenient area and a good value for price. check in was done completely virtually so I did not see a member of staff at any point. Room was small - almost no room to open my suitcase, but bed was comfortable.

Did not like this hotel

Check in was from 16:00 oclock (self check-in on a machin so not flexible) but check out from 11am which is super greedy. Usually no one at the reception wich is not comfortable at all. Luggage storage is not locked. The room was so tiny wich the shower above the sink and not adjustable for hight or angle so in totally random direction so you have to hold it when you stand infront of the sink. Then all of the toilet and shower room is flodded by water. Overall worst room I ever slept in even if compared to hostels. Good things: location is excellent, proximity to metro, CU store next door, room was clean and quiet.

My sister and I recently stayed at Hotel Dada and had a wonderful experience. The location is absolutely excellent—close to top attractions, restaurants, and public transportation. It made getting around super convenient. What really stood out beyond the location was the friendly and professional staff. Everyone we encountered was welcoming and eager to help, which made the stay even more enjoyable. Another great perk was the complimentary breakfast, which was a perfect way to start the day. Overall, a great value for the service. We’d definitely stay here again!

Good for a short stay

It’s a small room but fine for my short stay. It was clean and comfortable. I thought it was a bit expensive but it might be because of the date and last minute booking.
