"It's more of 3 star hotel, I took a room with river view and without breakfast. Excellent location and service by staff (8/10). Not very welcoming staff but thermometer service are excellent. Room standard and bed quality is OK but for me not comfortable. The room standard is OK but not 4 or 5 star. Breakfast buffet is not Worthing at all. Better get your own breakfast from the restaurant near by . Parking per day is 500 rub . Overall experience i would rather pay extra and stay in the radisson blue hotel nearby."
