Piazzetta Bacau

This is NOT a boutique hotel by any standards. The hotel is very modest and plain lacking lots of amenities. The rooms are on the first and second floors (2nd and 3rd for Americans) and there are no lifts, so if you have heavy luggage, you’ll have to carry them 1 of 2 flights of stairs. The stairs are steep with narrow steps and a narrow door to go through. Some of the rooms face a busy street, so they are noisy. The ones that don’t face the street, get noise from loud music playing in the restaurant downstairs from early morning till late night. Our room had light window curtains with no shades so the light from the light poles outside made the room very light at night. There is no electronic access control to the rooms or hotel area and just a door key to the room. Our room did not have a safe, a phone, an iron and ironing board, and the Wi-Fi was very slow and unreliable. The bed was uncomfortable and the mattress support fell apart often when we moved during sleep. The room and bathroom were very clean, and the heater and hot water worked very well. The restaurant is very nice to look at with lots of space and tables, and the service is poor (not friendly, not helpful, not attentive). The food is average with nothing special, and the prices are high for Romanian standards. There is free parking available, but it is crowded on the weekends. This place is not recommended for people with limited mobility. We were a bit disappointed with our stay, so we cannot recommend this place. We will not stay here again.
