The breakfast was really good, the coffee was good and they actually let you drink all you want!. The older guy with the white hair was very friendly and helpful. Management needs to be more professional. Location is not good, even a couple of taxi drivers I asked wouldn't go there after dark! This is a big hotel, with no guests! I never saw anyone in the hotel except at breakfast, then there were only 4 people total. It was like a scary movie.

The hotel lobby was pretty and the outside was idealistic. The manager was a bit coarse and did not have a professional manner, however he was helpful. Our room was dirty and the bathroom had a hole in the ceiling. I also believe that the hotel has some sort of plumbing issue as our room was dank and a bit smelly. I wish they would have put more money into the rooms and less into the facade of the building.

Proximité du métro Aucun effort fait pour agrémenter cet hôtel malgré les possibilités. Le hall d'entré est triste sans aucune sorte de décoration, mobilier vieillot, et rien n'est fait pour donner l'envie de rester là. Les chambres,(petites), sont meublées dans un style récupération plus que celui d'un hôtel d'aujourd'hui ( tabouret en plastique blanc fatigué pour poser les affaires dans la douche par exemple). Bruit des voitures suivant les chambres assez prononcé. Si vous y allez, visitez les toilettes de la réception, munis de portes kz en plastique et pour améliorer le tout, elles ne ferment pas !

Hotel looks inviting and clean from outside. In quiet area with greenery around. Good place to sit outside, have a drink and enjoy the air. Good value for money. Easy reach of Tube Station and also Kiffisou Bus Depot for coaches to Peloponnese. Our room was a bit dated e.g. bathroom could do with a refurbishment. Stale tobacco smells throughout.

die Lage WIFI ist schon etwas nervig ... Frühstück insgesamt o.k. aber: schade. es gibt in der Nähe genug Bäcker, die frisch gebackenes Brot anbieten. Im Hotel gab es leider nur ausgetrocknetes Brot vom Vortag!!!

Apart from the location everything else was awful! We arrived late at night, the hotel staff were very slow to find our reservation, got rooms on different levels. Keys weren't working properly! Air-condition throughout all rooms was not working hardly any cool air! Breakfast was from 8-10am can't even think of asking for anything once it's past 10am. Breakfast is not much to be honest. Not a good experience at all!
