Pros:

Lokalita skvělá kousek od metra/tramvaje, v ulici naprostý klid.
Perfektní snídaně i v hezké zahrádce, personál velice příjemný a vstřícný. Malý bar otevřený do půlnoci.

Cons:

Pokud by hotel měl malý dětský kout a posilovnu byl by perfektní.
Vybavení hotelu není nejnovější, ale v dobrém stavu.

Pros:

Όμορφο και προσεγμένο ξενοδοχείο με αριστοκρατικό στυλ και φινέτσα. Καθαρά και άνετα δωμάτια. Μια όμορφη αυλή που μπορούσες καθίσεις όλες τις ώρες της ημέρας. Η τοποθεσία ήταν εξαιρετική, καθώς ήταν σε κεντρική αλλά και ήσυχη περιοχή. Το προσωπικό ευγενέστατο και ιδιαίτερα η Αννα στη reception. Το προτείνω ανεπιφύλακτα!

Cons:

Λίγη φασαρία στο δωμάτιο από τον κήπο και από διαδρόμους.
