Kyllä ysi + pitää nyt antaa!
Pros:

Olen ollut hotellissa vuosien kuluessa useita kertoja. Hinta on nyt vähän noussut, mutta jos parvekkeellinen huoneen saa, eikä kuilunäkymää vastapäätä olevaan huoneeseen, hinta on ihan ok. Koska sijainti ei voisi olla parempi. Henkilökunta jo jopa hymyilee. Siivous, joka ennen oli olematonta, toimii nyt ja pyyhkeetkin vaihdettiin lähes joka päivä. Edullinen, tosin tietysti vaatimaton aamupala toimii erinomaisesti silloin kun tarvii. Suihkun veden tsekkaaja oli ennen jopa vaarallinen, kun yhtäkkiä saattoi tulla tulikuumaa vettä, nyt se toimi moitteettomasti.

Cons:

Ainut miinus edelleenkin on nariseva sänky.

Pros:

Hôtel très bien situé dans le centre.

Cons:

La salle de bain est trop petite. Les parties communes ont une odeur de tabac. La clim est bruyante.

η πιο βολική που κάνω στο Ηράκλειο
Pros:

η τοποθεσία !!! το χαμόγελο των εργαζομένων εκεί και η αίσθηση ασφάλειας !

Cons:

θα ήθελα λιγο πιο καινούρια έπιπλα και πιστολάκι μαλλιών στα δωματια! ισως χρειάζεται καλύτερη μόνωση γιατί κάποιοι πελάτες δεν μπορούν να σεβαστούν τη στοιχειώδη ανάγκη των άλλων για κάποιες ωρες ησυχίας

For a last minute booking and a short stay is more than satisfying!
Pros:

The location is excellent, couldn't be better - right in the heart of the city. The hotel is not modern, but clean and cozy enough for a short stay. The room was spacious enough, I booked one with a double bed for more comfort. The staff was kind, polite and efficient, I was also able to leave my luggage after check out to explore the city. Very good connection to the airport and I made the most of my time for one night.

Cons:

The shower cabin was a bit too small for me, so I didn't close the door while showering. Also, I remember in the booking saying there is a small balcony, but there was not. The main challenge was the walls were too thin - I could hear both the neighbours chatting in the evening and the cleaning lady moving chairs way too early, so I couldn't catch up with the sleep.

Pros:

Πολυ κεντρικό σημείο

Cons:

Ηταν λίγο στενό το δωμάτιο και ειχε λιγο φασαρία το πρωί, γιατί προφανώς ημουν στον πρώτο όροφο ακριβώς απο πανω απο τη σάλα του πρωινού

Pros:

J'ai apprécié l'endroit par rapport à la proximité de la ville.

Cons:

En arrivant dans la chambre, il y avait une odeur particulière. Deux lits individuels, les matelas ne sont pas confortables.
La décoration serait à revoir, un peu vieillot.
La climatisation ne fonctionné pas.
Les draps et serviettes de toilette ne sont pas changés tous les jours.
Pour les petits dejeuners, il faut vraiment être à l'heure et c'est très basique . Café , jus fruits bas de gamme.
Certains personnels agréables et d'autres moins
Le seul plus est la proximité du centre ville.
