Art Hotel Palma

For $10 a night, it's a fine place if you're after something cheap. The price for a two-star hotel is ridiculously low, and my room was clean and spacious. The bed had a weird round shape, but it was big enough for me and my girlfriend and quite comfortable. The bathroom fittings were clean, though worn, and I didn't get a chance to try breakfast. The design looks cheap and isn't appealing, and that Eiffel Tower picture on the wall is hideous. There are five floors and no elevator.

For the price, the hotel is clean and quiet, which was good. Getting into central Lviv is the downside: public transport is limited to one minibus, and it comes roughly every 30 minutes. Taxis are expensive, so factor that in before booking.

The deluxe rooms have these really cool, oversized round beds. The interior is pretty nice, and the prices feel fair. I’d recommend staying here.

I enjoyed my two-night stay, though getting to the center takes a bit of effort. There’s no elevator, and visitors can’t come in after 10.
