Categories

Cleanliness
7.6
Mixed reports: some reviewers call the hotel modern and clean, but multiple complaints about rooms not being cleaned, missing restock items, torn sofa/curtain and insect issues lower the score.
Service
9.1
Generally praised: staff described as friendly and helpful and receptionists trying to resolve problems; a few isolated reports of incompetence or poor restaurant attitude but overall service is a strong point.
Location
8
Quiet outskirts location with free parking and convenient for airport; several guests note it is a bit far from city centre/metro which reduces convenience for some stays.
Room Quality
8.8
Many mentions of very spacious, comfortable rooms with balconies and good beds; occasional issues such as broken fridge, missing chair, lack of kitchen utensils or worn furniture are noted but do not dominate overall sentiment.
Amenities
7.9
Strong gym and pool praised by multiple guests, but repeated problems with spa/steam room/sauna/jacuzzi (not operational or paid extra) bring the amenities score down.
Value for Money
7.5
Mixed: some guests say price was great, others find breakfast and some services overpriced or expect lower rates, producing a below-target value perception.
Food and Beverage
8.6
On-site Greek restaurant is frequently praised and several guests report eating very well; there are occasional complaints about restaurant service and staff attitude which temper the rating.
Overall Experience
8.9
Overall positive and often described as comfortable or luxurious with helpful staff and good facilities; isolated negatives (cleaning, some amenities, noise from events) reduce but do not outweigh the positive experience.

Spacious and comfortable
Pros:

Huge and spacious room, very comfortable, good location. Friendly and helpful staff. Free parking was hugely helpful.

Cons:

The room had a kitchen but no kitchen utensils, which was strange. The Sauna is a paid extra service.
