somewhat disappointing Experience

small room size weird smell

the breakfast was okay. There were Enough options for Everyone.

i must say, THE room size was way smaller than i expected for a supposed five-star hotel. the soundproofing seemed non-existent. I could hear everything from the street below, and it made it hard to get a good night's sleep. the bathroom had this weird smell, almost like sewage, quite UNPLEASANT.

adequate central stay

rooftop restaurant acropolis views wide selection breakfast options free parking constant traffic traffic noise leaking shower shower door slow elevators

the rooftop restaurant provided amazing views of the acropolis. the breakfast was good with a wide selection of options. the hotel offered free parking, it was very convenient.

my room was on a lower floor so the noise from traffic was constant. the shower door did not prevent water from leaking onto the floor. the elevators seemed slow for the number of guests.

uncomfortable sleep loud noise

The location was good enough.

I was not happy with the room. The air conditioner blew directly onto the bed, so sleeping was not comfortable. The noise outside in the morning was audible inside the room and affected my rest.
