does the job. price per night was fair
Pros:

the hotel is just ok on all fronts: the room is just a little bit too small, the bed could have been a bit more comfortable, the shower water temperature could have been a little bit more predictable, the cleaning could have been a little bit more diligent, the AC could have worked a bit better, etc, etc. The location was great and wi-fi was very reliable. Didn't have breakfast there so cant comment on that.

Cons:

nothing really, just don't expect much

Καλή τοποθεσία
Pros:

Έμεινα πολύ ικανοποιημένη από τη διαμονή μου! Η τοποθεσία του ξενοδοχείου ήταν εξαιρετική και πολύ βολική για μετακινήσεις. Το κρεβάτι ήταν άνετο και προσέφερε ξεκούραστο ύπνο, ενώ το δωμάτιο είχε πολλά παράθυρα που το έκαναν φωτεινό και ευχάριστο. Τα φωτιστικά έδιναν μια όμορφη ατμόσφαιρα στον χώρο και το προσωπικό ήταν ευγενικό και εξυπηρετικό σε ό,τι χρειάστηκα.

Cons:

Δυστυχώς η εμπειρία μου στο ξενοδοχείο δεν ήταν καθόλου καλή. Υπήρχε έντονη μυρωδιά αποχέτευσης στις τουαλέτες σχεδόν κάθε φορά, κάτι που ήταν πολύ ενοχλητικό. Επίσης δεν υπήρχε ούτε βούρτσα τουαλέτας, κάτι βασικό για την καθαριότητα.

Στο μπαρ διαπιστώσαμε ότι οι μπύρες ήταν ληγμένες, κάτι που θεωρώ απαράδεκτο. Το παράθυρο του δωματίου δεν ήταν καθαρό, δίνοντας γενικά την αίσθηση έλλειψης φροντίδας.
Το πρωινό ήταν απογοητευτικό, με πολύ λίγες επιλογές και καθόλου νόστιμες. Σε καμία περίπτωση δεν είναι αυτό που θα έλεγε κανείς «πλούσιο πρωινό». Κατεβήκαμε μόνο δύο φορές και ουσιαστικά μόνο για καφέ, καθώς προτιμήσαμε να τρώμε έξω σε άλλα καταστήματα.
