Wonderful Experience
quiet area bus connection
The hotel is close to the main train station, a convenient point if you want to travel by rail. I found many bus connections nearby. Access to the Acropolis took me just thirty minutes by foot. The location is surprisingly quiet for a city center.
The beds felt quite firm, which I did not find to be optimal for my personal comfort.
Dining
9/10
The restaurant on the sixth floor provided a meal. I remember it was enjoyable and the view over the city and distant mountains enhanced the dining experience. Breakfast was also in the restaurant.
Rooms
8/10
The room had air conditioning, which maintained a very regulated temperature throughout my stay. The bed was comfortable. It ensured restful sleep after a long day. The compact size of the room.
Facilities
9/10
The hotel is located across the street from the train station. This makes it accessible. The metro station is also nearby. It offers quick transport to key locations. That was very convenient.
Service
10/10
The service provided by the staff was very amazing. I was checked in early by a very kind person. The restaurant staff matched this level of quality. I was impressed.
