Pros:

The good-
The location of this hotel was great, a short walk to the Acropolis, shopping, and Syntagma square. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Room was clean, shower had a good amount of pressure.
The bad-
Room 103 faces the street and a noisy cafe, one night the noise didn’t stop until after 1 am. Beds were uncomfortable. No USB charging ports in the room.
The ugly-
I hate to make accusations but I’m pretty sure $80 was stolen out of one of our bags here when we dropped them off. Our room wasn’t ready yet so they put them in a common room until it was (this room was not secured). Just be careful when storing bags. Elevator is tiny, just be forewarned if you are claustrophobic.

Pros:

I loved this hotel, especially the location. It was close to the Piazzale Roma which is the drop off for the bus from the airport and close to the people mover if taking that to a cruise. It was also not a bad walk to St Mark's Basilica. I actually preferred being outside the crowds. The hotel staff was amazing and very helpful. I highly recommend this hotel if in Venice!

The staff were amazing. Only thing negative was it was a bit small and the marble tiles were a death trap when wet from shower.

Pros:

The location was excellent, in the Plaka area. Very safe to walk in the area. Good air conditioning, comfortably beds, rooms are kind of small. Got a room with two twin beds. Shower was small too. The people in the reception area were nice and helpful. Didn’t like the fact that you have to leave the key of your room every time you leave the hotel. The view of the Acropolis at the roof top was gorgeous.

Couple's stay in Plaka
Pros:

This hotel generally had all the necessities we required, with reasonably friendly reception staff, but it was not spectacular.
They were not able to accommodate our double-bed request, instead ending up with two single beds, despite booking well in advance.

We did not try the breakfast option, instead using the artisinal bakery down the road which was very yum.

The hotel's system of handing your room key to the reception when you leave the building, so it can't get lost outside, worked well with the 24h reception.

The hotel's location is superb, right in the heart of Plaka, with everything in walking distance.

Pros:

I would happily stay in this little hotel again, but I can’t give it 5 stars because our balcony was really quite small and right next to a building under construction. However, we could see the Acropolis nicely if we angled the chairs away from the construction.
The breakfast buffet was small but very convenient.
The hotel is in a great location for shopping and restaurants.
The staff were very nice.

Pros:

The hotel was clean with an ideal location and friendly staff. The hotel offers a patio on the upper level where you have an amazing view of the Acropolis at night.

The room we had was very small, hard for two people to move around. I am sure they offer different size rooms if you would like more space. Something to be aware of when booking.

We would definitely stay again but in a different room.

Pros:

The staffs are so kind and friendly. One thing that you know is the room size is not correct. Hotels.com tells the room size for the double bed room is 194sqft, but it is not. There is not enough space to open 2x large size carrier.
