Pokoj byl malý, ale na přespání naprosto dostačující, Na pokoji bylo i malé umyvadlo. Na patře byly 2 sprchy a 2 záchody. Vše bylo čisté. V ceně byla i dobrá bufetová snídaně. Kladně hodnotím instrukce k ubytování, které proběhlo bez problémů.

− Ve sprše nefungoval přepínač horní a ruční sprchy. Počítaly jsme s uložením zavazadel, ale v ten den to nebylo bohužel možné, což nám trochu zkomplikovalo celodenní program v Athenách.

− Mes 2 soeurs et moi même avons dormi dans des petits lits superposés et les sanitaires (douches et toilettes) étaient à l'extérieur. Nous n'avons vu aucun personnel , aussi bien à l'aller qu'au départ. La chambrette était sombre puisque petite fenêtre.

L'accueil très sympathique, les conseils pour les visites. L'emplacement un peu en retrait de l'effervescence de la ville est super appréciable
