Good: Room was clean, all the necessary facilities for us (fridge, hairdryer, air conditioning, dark curtains), very good location at 300m from Keleti train and metro station, bus station in the front of the hotel (30m), shops, pubs. The furniture in the room is let's say just a little old fashioned year 2005-style in my opinion, but very well maintained. Superior rooms are indeed nicer and modern equipped as can be seen in the pictures, maybe it worth the price if you need more luxury. They gave us a standard room at the last floor, if it is very hot in the summer you must keep AC on all the day & night, but the central AC system works silently. We were lucky, it rained last 2 days from our accommodation period and the temperature was around 18-20 Celsius, but in the first two days it was 32-34. I must admit though they tried to offer us at check in a double room as a free upgrade (we had a twin and we are a couple), I refused I don't know why, but I don't know if the offer would be at a different floor; it's possible that standard rooms to be only at the last floor, you must pay attention and to ask at the reception if you don't want last floor). The good part for us was - because every time you must see also the good parts even in the bad ones :) - at the last floor the window is a large attic window which gave you the opportunity to see the sky from the bed and is more romantic :). Soundproofing of the room is not perfect, but definitely over average, keeping in mind how much traffic is on the large boulevard near the hotel all the time, but hotel atmosphere was quiet. Breakfast is fabulous for all the preferences (from English breakfast to continental, French, Italian, Chinese - yes, they have even noodles with vegetables, some Chinese soup at breakfast ). The coffee could be better though, even they have serious espresso machines, probably the quality of the coffee beans is below average. Bad: Shower curtain was too long :) - if you don't want water leaks on the floor you must keep the curtain inside the tube in the shower time and is too long, it was designed outside the tube to hang exactly to the floor. I must warned you not to be surprised, as in many other large cities at night you can see some homeless sleeping in the center on the streets, same here. Another idea: Budapest is transforming year by year, more and more beautiful, you must consider many days to see all that the city has to offer or plan several trips. Three or four days is not enough - as this can be considered a negative point I had no place to write at positives :). I am in love with Budapest and its people!
