Supervisor Excellent, staff not friendly

We were not given the room with a view as I had reserved. The flooring outside the shower is rotted. The man that checked us in was not friendly or helpful upon arrival. His name was Emilio. The female supervisor, Katrina, was extremely friendly and very helpful. She actually took the time to explain to us how to get around.

Rooms are really grand in size (comparing to other European hotels). Rooms marked with Acropolis view, are just a myth, you need binoculars to see Acropolis. Also this hotel is next to a strip club, we got room on 1st floor, there was very noisy music till 1am in the morning, could hardly sleep.
