    Enjoyed how the reasonably spacious and absolutely perfect double room with large bed was arranged when we arrived. The location was marvellous and magnificent: several stores and a supermarket were within walking distance.

    urban convenience
    excessive noise
    limited hot water

    Near airport convenience, effective air conditioning, strategic location for sightseeing

    Noise from airplanes is excessive!!! Small bathrooms lack comfort and are cramped!!! Cleaning standards could use improvement to enhance hygiene, and hot water availability was inconsistent during peak times!!!

    The hotel was fairly clean and had very welcoming and pleasant staff at the reception desk. Our room was reasonably spacious also with balcony, and we thoroughly enjoyed having access to wake-up service. The location of this extremely convenient and ideal venue was ideal, close to the aiport.

    The bed was extremely squeaky, that's my bad luck.

    good breakfast
    poor mattress
    cramped bathroom

    Location is excellent for a quick stay before an early flight, with convenient airport access. The mattress quality was disappointing and the bathroom felt cramped. Despite these issues, the breakfast selections were quite satisfying and the staff were genuinely friendly and helpful.

    comfortable accommodations
    effective air conditioning
    quality breakfast options
    small bathroom

    The Asterion offers great convenience as it's super close to the airport, just a quick 5-minute bus trip away. My room had a lovely balcony with a nice view, perfect for watching planes take off. The air conditioning worked well, keeping the room cool during the heat. Breakfast stood out with a good variety, especially the fresh fruits and cereals, which gave me a good start to the day. Despite some noise from the airport, my room had soundproofing that helped minimize disturbances. The bathroom was a bit cramped, and the hot water took too long to warm up. A practical choice for a one-night stay.

    Perfect for a Quick Stop Over!

    The location next to the bus station made airport access easy! Enjoyed local meals from nearby cafes delivered right to my room. Although the breakfast lacked variety, the comfortable stay made it all worthwhile. For a one-night stay, it's a practical choice.

    mattress discomfort

    pleasant stay with some room for improvement

    The location is very convenient, especially as it is close to the airport. The staff were genuinely friendly and accommodating, even switching our bed arrangement without issue. I really enjoyed the breakfast with a nice variety of fresh options to start the day off right. The city view from the room.

    The mattress comfort could be improved for better sleep quality.

    helpful staff
    decent breakfast
    loud noise

    We loved the decent breakfast spread and the super helpful staff. It's close to the airport , made our travels smoother, and the nearby taverna was a bonus for dinner. We also visited the city center which was just a short walk away.

    The only downside was the noise from airplanes, pretty loud at times.

    comfy bed
    great wifi
    friendly hosts
    slow hot water
    noise levels

    The single room was cozy with a super comfy bed, perfect for a quick stay after traveling. WiFi worked well, and I was able to chill outside while waiting for friends. The breakfast was tasty, and the hosts were really friendly, even offering coffee after check-out. The water in the sink took a while to warm up, a bit annoying.
