Excellent Staff and Convenient Location

helpful staffhalal foodinconsistent air conditioning
i found the staff very cooperative and helpful, especially ahmed, diana, elpida, chrysa and andreas the security. the hotel manager, anna, allowed us early entry to the rooms. halal food was provided also.
the air conditioning worked only sometimes, switching off in the middle of the night. this made for uncomfortable sleeping conditions. the hotel could benefit from more consistent climate control.

the breakfast on the rooftop was amazing!!! i liked that the staff was very friendly. the room was also extra large, and that was a big plus for me. i found everything to be very nice.
the bathroom wasn't as clean as it should have been, that was a letdown. the floors in the room were not properly washed, so that's something to consider. water leaked from the shower into the bedroom, which wasn't ideal.
