The hotel is nestled in the noisy old town, offering a convenient stay but with some noise. The rooms come with breakfast and good facilities, yet the quality is somewhat lacking. The service was remarkable, creating a pleasant atmosphere despite some minor issues. The central location is a plus for exploring the city, although there might be noise from the surroundings. The dining experience with traditional Greek products was a highlight, but with limited choices. Overall, a mixed experience that balances convenience and ambiance.
