I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms had a strong cigarette smell, but having a balcony made a big difference despite their tired appearance. The service was top-notch with very polite and friendly staff, especially Kleopatra at breakfast. The location was much closer to the center than expected but suffered from noise issues. The dining options were average, with repetitive offerings, and some items were not served at the right temperature. The facilities of the hotel were satisfactory.
