It is not bad value for money.
Pros:

The room is big and clean, the AC is working, and the blankets are inside a bag, which makes it feel more hygienic. They have reception for 24 hours.

Cons:

Even if the room is ready before the check-in time, we feel that we cannot check in early for free. Furthermore, there is no phone signal inside the hotel, especially around the reception desk. When we asked for the Wi-Fi password, we were told it could only be provided after check-in because the password becomes active for each room only after the official check-in process.

Yes, I would stay again, because it was very clean and friendly.
Pros:

No breakfast.
The lights were very dim.
The staff were helpful.

Cons:

Would have liked a bottle of drinking water in room on arrival.
There was a homeless person sleeping outside the door on the street one day.
A lot of graffiti in the area around.

Fantastisk personal, nära till allt på gångavstånd och mycket bra för det priset.
Pros:

Fantastisk personal, kyl på rummet och läget på hotellet var tipp topp (gångavstånd till det mesta).

Cons:

Området var inte tryggt sent på kvällen, och byggnaden bredvid var helt öde.

Great location. Great staff.
Pros:

I stayed at this hotel for 5 days, then went away and then back for one night, then away again and then back for another night. The staff was so helpful, kind and knowledgeable. They all spoke perfect English.

I loved the location. I stayed at this hotel initially because someone who organized part of our trip had selected it for her one night layover in Athens. But I ended up loving it and would definitely stay there again.

As a solo 68 year old female, I trusted the reviews that then neighborhood was safe despite graffiti, my taxi Driver from airport who dropped me off at 9:30 pm, verified that the neighborhood is perfectly fine—he said just avoid omemia square at night. I did feel perfectly safe walking around at night.

They have an arrangement with a nearby hotel for breakfast for a small fee. I opted not to do because I’d rather pick my own place to experience different types of restaurants.

Cons:

The top sheet was not put on the bed any of the 3 times I checked in—-felt that was a bit “basic.”

Hotel centralissimo e conveniente
Pros:

Era la seconda volta, per la seconda estate di seguito, che sceglievo questo hotel per una sosta ad Atene prima di spostarmi verso le isole. L'hotel è spartano ma pulitissimo, le camere sono spaziose e i letti sono molto comodi. La posizione è centralissima, a una decina di minuti a piedi da piazza Monastiraki. Non c'è colazione ma ci sono dei distributori molto forniti a prezzi onesti e tanti bar nelle vicinanze.

Cons:

La sera, per una donna sola, tornare verso quella zona a piedi fa un po' paura. Non riguarda direttamente l'hotel ma più che altro la zona in sè.
