The onsite restaurant proved convenient. It offered decent meals at a fair price.
The room was rather dated. Furniture showed definite wear, and the walls seemed thin as I easily heard noises from other rooms. I found no tea or coffee facilities in my room.

The hotel has a bus stop for the 6A bus right outside! This made getting to the city center very simple. My room had a 'pilgrims vibe', which I found quite charming. The restaurant served good food at a good price. I really enjoyed it.
I found the staff to be quite unfriendly . I asked for breakfast three times and never got what I requested. There were no smiles or positive attitudes from the staff. This really impacted my stay negatively.

the hotel is located on bus route 6a, just a short ride from the airport. my room felt clean, and it did have a cosy, pilgrims vibe. the staff in the restaurant are friendly, i found this nice.
I discovered the furniture is super old, and does not seem maintained. walls are thin. I heard noise from other rooms. i noticed the location is not ideal, as it felt far from town.
