Questionable security
Europa is a mid-range hotel in the newer section of the city. The accommodations are basic, but ok. The breakfast is basic, but ok. Prior to the arrival, the hotel repeatedly sent us messages regarding its restictive check-in times and payment policy. On several occasions we tried to call them with payment, but the phone wasn't answered.
The main issue we have with this property is regarding security. We were given one electronic cardkey, which had both the hotel name and the room number on it. That's a huge risk, if the key gets lost.
A light outside the room door illuminates red or green, depending on whether the electronic cardkey is in the slot inside the room. That clearly shows if the guests are in or out. So, if you dropped the key on the street, there's now a clear security risk.
The safe inside the room was apparently attached to a thin backing on the back wall of the wardrobe. "Apparently", because in our room it was thorn out of the wall, revealing a big hole in the backing of the wardrobe -- and being completely loose. Not terribly effective for a small safe.
