    Location: the hotel was just next door to Arena Armeets, and SOF airport. I really enjoyed convenient placing of a safe, a mini-bar and central heating in the double room. The staff were welcoming and accommodating, helped with any issues.

    There was very hard bed in my room.

    We recently stayed at a hotel near the airport, and Rai was perfect for our needs. the accommodations were impressive for the price range, and the staff at reception were friendly and helpful even at 3 am. the room was spacious with a large desk and wardrobe, and the bathroom was also spacious. a convenient location with great facilities and friendly staff. Cons: Everything was fantastic! 😊.

The location was great, with restaurants and public transport nearby. The room was spacious and clean, and the bathroom was impressive. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast had a good variety of options. Hotel Rai offers good value for money.

    The hotel's location close to the airport is extremely convenient for budget travellers. Additionally, the nearby taxi rank provides easy access to transportation. The rooms are spacious and well-maintained, with clean bathrooms and comfortable beds. The receptionists are attentive and polite, providing excellent service. The hotel offers facilities such as a kettle, fridge, and a safe in the room, ensuring a comfortable stay.

    Like any budget hotel, there may be issues with the enforcement of non-smoking policies, resulting in an unpleasant smell in some rooms.
