My stay at East City Budapest was a mixed bag. The location was fantastic, right across from Keleti Station, making travel easy. However, the room was on the smaller side and not thoroughly cleaned during my stay. The breakfast was decent but not particularly nice. Overall, it met my basic needs but left a lot to be desired.
