The hotel is a series of separate appartments - mine was brilliantly located in the tourist heart of the city. The appartment was clean, warm and comfortable - although the decor was dated and tired and the place needed a new carpet - there was also a lot of noise from the overhead flat. However, the manageress, driver and assistant who dealt with me could not have been more helpful and kind. I had a really excellent time in Odessa, which is a beautiful, well developed city.
