Great location and easy late check-in
Pros:

The location is really great - the metro is just a minute away, so it’s very easy to get around the city. I had a late flight and checked in at midnight without any issues, which was very convenient.

Breakfast was tasty and had a decent variety. Overall, it’s a good option for a short stay in Athens.

Cons:

The hotel could use some renovation - the furniture is quite old and doesn’t really match the photos.

Pros:

Ο επαγγελματισμός των υπαλλήλων και η τοποθεσία

Cons:

Το δωμάτιο ήταν απίστευτα μικρό, όταν ζητάς 3κλινο δε θεωρώ ότι πετώντας ένα ντιβάνι δίπλα στο ψυγείακι, μπορούν να βολευτούν 3 άνθρωποι. Σαφώς δεν μπορούν ούτε να μετακινηθούν στα ελάχιστα τετραγωνικά του δωματίου.
Ο χώρος δλθα έπρεπε να διατειθεται για 1 άτομο.
Απίστευτα απογοητευτικό να αποφεύγεις να πας στο δωμάτιο σου για ξεκούραση γνωρίζοντας ότι δεν μπορείς ούτε να ανασανεις.

Pros:

Close to bus route, metro station and archeology museum.

Cons:

Its extremely noisy if you want the porch door open. Our shower head broke and our air system only blasted hot air. So we needed the back door open and the street noise was incredibly loud. Breakfast was included with my booking status, but it wasnt good, dont pay for it. But, we got what we paid for. It was ok for a quick one nighter.
