The hotel offered spacious rooms with comfortable double beds and convenient amenities like a working desk, fast WiFi, and two cozy armchairs. However, there were issues with plugs not working, the safe being malfunctioning, and ineffective air conditioning at peak times. Despite some faults, the room was generally okay, although there were traces of moisture on the walls and the terrace needed better cleaning.

The hotel is centrally located, just a few minutes' walk from Ledras Street, making it convenient for exploring the city. The rooms are comfortable despite some marks on the walls and the need to climb stairs, which may not be ideal for everyone. The service was exceptionally kind and attentive, offering assistance with navigating the hotel and the city. The dining experience provides an okay selection, but lacks warmth and attentiveness from the staff. Overall, a great value for the location, especially for those interested in being close to the main attractions.

The hotel's location is convenient next to Ledra street and many shops, but the rooms were rather small and not particularly clean, with maintenance issues like burned out lights and a dripping sink. The service was friendly and helpful, providing great assistance with touring and transportation. The dining experience was described as very meagre, lacking variety. However, the hotel is situated close to the bus station and main shopping area, making it easy to explore the city.
