friendly staff acropolis view breakfast selection

i appreciate the friendly staff. the room offered a great view, i could see the acropolis from there. i thought the breakfast selection was good and had warm eggs, ham, and pastries. nespresso in the room was another good plus.

the noise from a bar on the sixth floor continued late. the disco music went on until 3:30 in the morning. this music really disturbed me.

the location was acceptable.

the room had wiring issues. i could not turn off the lights without turning off the power, also impacting the air conditioning. the receptionist did not seem to care when i complained the next day. i expected better service for the price.
