A great help from Ellie. She really was very careful with our trip. The hotel is more a guest house that a hotel, but for our needs was perfect - in a quiet area, near to the tram station, near to a good restaurant. We got the boarding pass in time and everything was ok. Thank you!
Valérie PETIT
Enjoy Hotel well located and easy to join through the public transports. A little cold the 2 first nights according to our collegues but th problem has been solved with the heating. Great thanks to George and T2F for their help and kindness

Dear Ellie,
Indeed, our overall satisfaction was great as it was very close to the fair (walking distance 10 min max), with a decent breakfast and 24-h available reception.
The room was very clean and the bed was super comfy although it would be perfect if there was a table and chair. We got a free room cleaning service for staying every 4 nights.
The hotel was very close to the train station, and to a very big mall which has Carrefour and a food court. Easy check out as well.
Have a great day ahead,
Best regards,
Dimos Maligiannis
