Çalışanlar güler yüzlü otel gayet temiz mahalle biraz kötü ama merkeze yakın
Pros:

Çalışanlar her konuda çok yardımcı oldular. Odalar daima temizdi.

Cons:

Duşakabinin perdesinde bir sorun vardı ancak çok büyük bir dorun değil. Mahalle biraz sıkıntılı hissi verdi gelip giderken çok tedirgin oldum

Pros:

Obiekt oddaje wrażenie znacznie lepsze niż dwie gwiazdki, pokój codziennie sprzątany z wymianą ręczników, kurzu nie ma nawet na szafie

Cons:

Ciągły wieczorny posmród fajek z korytarza, niezbędne zasłanianie ręcznikiem drzwi, ale Grecy tak mają że fajcą wszędzie i w kółko...

Pros:

Omonia metro durağına yürüyerek 1dk mesafede bile değil. Otelin sokağı tekinsiz olsa da rahatsız eden kimse olmadı. Sokağın başında fırın var. Orada sabah öğle akşam her öğün yiyecek harika şeyler var. Otelin konumu mükemmel. Personel güleryüzlü ve yardımseverdi. Valizleri girişte ve çıkışta otelde bıraktık kabul ettiler. Checkout sonrası tuvalet kullanmamıza da izin verdiler. Personelden yana sıkıntı olmadı. Memnun kaldık.

Cons:

Sokakta gece sarhoş insanlar bağırıyordu. Otelin önünde ve civarında sokaklarda uyuşturucu içen insanlar var. Bu otelin eksikliği değil elbette. Biz 2 kadın ve bir çocuk olarak seyahat ettik. Tehlikeli bir durum yaşamadık. 5 numaralı odada kalmıştık tuvalet çoooook küçük. Klozete oturunca bacakları sağa sola hareket ettirmek mümkün değil. Taharet konusu bu yüzden çok sıkıntı oldu. Özellikle su ile taharet almak isteyenler için hareket alanı sıfır.
