Categories

Cleanliness
7.8
Mixed signals: several reviews praise the rooms, but multiple guests reported unclean conditions on arrival (hair in bathroom, dusty floors, dirty cups) and an initial warm-water outage; lowered score to reflect these concrete cleanliness complaints.
Service
9.6
Generally very positive: staff described as friendly, helpful and professional; staff handled a plumbing issue courteously and provided a complimentary upgrade in at least one case. A few mentions of impersonal contact but overall service is a strong point.
Location
9.9
Consistently praised: excellent central location, quiet neighbourhood yet within easy walking distance of sights, restaurants and shops across multiple reviews.
Room Quality
9.7
Rooms are frequently described as comfortable, modern and spacious with good beds and fittings; some negatives like missing advertised jacuzzi in a premium room and occasional thin walls/bright rooms noted but overall room quality is high.
Amenities
8.6
Good amenities such as excellent wi‑fi and modern furnishings reported, but shortcomings include limited parking, small/steep lift, some broken bedside lights and a missing jacuzzi for a premium room.
Value for Money
9.2
Perceived as good value: guests report complimentary upgrades and recommend the hotel; parking costs/availability and lack of 24h reception noted as minor drawbacks.
Food and Beverage
8.8
Mixed breakfast feedback: several guests enjoyed a nice breakfast with sufficient choices, while others found the breakfast minimal or with limited selection; inconsistency across stays lowers the score slightly.
Overall Experience
10
Strong overall impressions and multiple recommendations: excellent location, polite and effective staff, comfortable modern rooms; isolated operational issues (cleanliness on arrival, brief water outage, parking) were typically resolved and did not prevent highly positive overall experiences.

Τέλεια
Pros:

Καταπληκτικό κατάλυμα, σε πολύ καλό μέρος, μέσα στο κέντρο της πόλης. Όλα βρίσκονται σε πολύ μικρή απόσταση με τα πόδια. Το προσωπικό ήταν παραπάνω από ευγενικό, και αντιμετωπίσανε κάποια μικρά προβληματάκια με πολύ θετική διάθεση, με αποτέλεσμα τελικά να μην αισθάνομαι ότι δημιουργήθηκαν προβλήματα. Το συστήνω ανεπιφύλακτα.

Cons:

Υπήρξε ένα μικρό πρόβλημα με την υδραυλική εγκατάσταση του ξενοδοχείου την πρώτη ημέρα της επίσκεψης μου, με αποτέλεσμα να μην έχουμε για κάποιες ώρες νερό. Αυτό έγινε Παρασκευή βράδι και το Σάββατο το πρωί αποκατέστησαν την βλάβη, ενώ ταυτόχρονα ήταν πολύ ευγενικοί μαζί μας. Τέτοια προβλήματα κατά τη γνώμη μου είναι φυσικό να συμβαίνουν και ο υποδειγματικός τρόπος που το αντιμετώπισε το προσωπικό δείχνει το υψηλό επίπεδο εξυπηρέτησης που προσφέρει η επιχείρηση. Μπράβο τους.

Pros:

Schöne Lage. Moderne Einrichtung

Cons:

Gebäude und Zimmer bereits bei Ankunft sehr schmutzig. Der Boden im Bad war voller Haare von den vorherigen Gästen. Der Boden im Zimmer war voller Staubflusen. Die Kaffeetassen waren dreckig. Am ersten Morgen gab es kein warmes Wasser. Das Schließsystem funktionierte nicht, sodass wir vor einem verschlossenen Haus standen. Frühstück war schlecht, wenig Auswahl.
