It's old, small and absolutely not a 4 star hotel. The pool is not a pool, the hotel is old and decrepid. Needs updating. Area around it is dirty and felt unsafe. Checked out after 1 night.

Great hotel, amazing rooftop pool with an amazing views.
The buffet breakfast was perfect, lots of choice and very tasty, likewise the pool bar.
Room was clean and serviced daily.
The area isn't great but location is good, being very close to to the tube, a cheap taxi into town or a short walk to the start of the hop on hop off bus. We didn't have any concerns walking around the area.

The front desk clerk has an abrasive demeanor but quickly provided me with the room. Beds were very hard not comfortable at all. I was on the phone TALKING and the walls are so thin the guest in the next room started banging on the wall. The price was good and the view From roof beautiful. 1 1/2 star. Q1

Great stay at the Candia hotel, close enough to qalk to the city centre ~40 minutes. The rooftop patio and pool are gorgeous with amazing views of the city. Room had been recently updated with a large shower. Laundry is expensive, however they provide additional information on laundromats nearby as needed.

Nice renovated hotel in a very shady side of town but close to the metro/bus and train station. The mattresses were super hard. Ouch! Nice pool and rest area on the roof top with great view of the city,
