The hotel is in a prime location, offering breathtaking views of May 4th Square by the seaside. The rooms are spacious, clean, and provide a great vantage point of the city and the yachting center. The temperature was comfortable, and the beach was a nice feature. However, the hotel shows signs of age, which can be a drawback.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The room I got was even better than the one I booked, with a lovely view of the 4th May Monument and the Olympic port/sea. It was huge and equipped with a washing machine, huge fridge, and a full set kitchen with all the necessary utensils. The service I received was excellent; even though I couldn't understand English well, the staff was very helpful, especially when I encountered a problem on the day I checked out. The location couldn't have been better as it was close to famous attractions like the May 4th Square, a short walk from the bus stop to/from the airport, subway station, 7-11, a big shopping mall, and the seaside. Plus, there were taxis easily available either from reception or just at the end of the road. The dining experience was good overall, with diverse options that were constantly refilled, although a bit more variety could have made it better. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay even more enjoyable.

The hotel offers spacious rooms with a nice view onto the 4th May monument and Olympic port/sea, featuring free Wi-Fi ideal for both business and leisure travelers. The staff responded well to requests, although a fan was provided after a few days due to room temperature. The location is reasonably central with beautiful sea views, and the dining options, while not extensive, are available on the 24th floor.

The hotel offered amazing views over the Bay Area from the clean and comfortable rooms. However, the rooms were a bit small for the number of guests, and the floors needed to be recleaned upon our arrival. The location was very convenient, near the business district, shopping areas, and the bayfront. The dining options were below average with limited choices available.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were very spacious and had large, comfortable beds, but some amenities like the couch looked a bit worn out. The service was a bit of a letdown with an unfriendly kitchen staff charging a high deposit and causing arguments at check-out, although the rooms were kept very clean. The location was good, close to the sea and a short drive to city attractions, but lacked some basic kitchen supplies. The dining options were below average, but the serviced apartment did offer a decent selection of Chinese and Western food. The facilities were somewhat lacking considering the price paid.
