I had difficulty getting a taxi. The room was good but the bathroom had no hot water or shampoo. Overall it was good but needs improvement. ##### Sergio Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Konstantinos Nov 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I chose it for having a restaurant and a roof top bar with a pool. It turns out the restaurant had only two options (rice or pasta) and the bar was closed. The pool is so small it has no use. The room was ok but many things were missing, like hand soap or even some water to drink. The staff barely speaks any English, hard to communicate. The breakfast was pathetic.

Lidt slidt og beskidt ud over værelset som var i fin stand. Derudover ligger hotellet direkte op af en byggeplads dører og det larmede fra kl 8 om morgenen til 8 om aftenen alt i alt ikke en så god oplevelse ##### Emma Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Denis Jan 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Le personnel (réception) pas très sympathique et pas très honnête. ##### Denis Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Neusa l.
