This is our second time staying the Walper Hotel. We came back because we had a great first stay. Unfortunately, we weren't as lucky this time. The room we were given was quite small, the bathroom was rusty and the blinds did not cover the entire windows so it was extremely bight so we were unable to sleep. Also, the image on the tv kept glitching so we couldn't even watch anything. For the price, it differently was not worth it this time around.
