Pros:

Breakfast

Cons:

Coffee machines kept breaking down. A man must have designed the bedroom.Cupboards on top of the wardrobe accessible by 6ft gals but not us 5ft 2 ladies.
Hairdryer cord very short.
Should have put it over the dresser with a mirror and drawers underneath.

Not enough sun loungers for amount of guest. Plus people putting towels on them, then going downstairs for breakfast.

Horrible location and dirty
Pros:

Breakfast was wonderful.

Cons:

In a horrible part of athens, feels like you are in a third world country that has just been bombed. The pool is small, the carpets were filthy in the rooms, the rooftop area closes at 6 pm so you can't make use of it when you want to.

The carpets in the room were so filthy that our crawling baby's legs became filthy. Pool chair covers were torn and old.

We ordered Wolt food delivery (like Uber eats) and the receptionist told us it wasn't our food when I went to collect because he couldn't read numbers. Food was very cold when he finally relented and gave us our food.

Pros:

L'hôtel est propre, la chambre était bien un peu vieillissante, la moquette avait des tâches mais sinon c'était très propre.

Cons:

Le quartier fait très guetto, pauvre, beaucoup de sans abri et de drogué, le trajet vers le métro peut faire un peu peur surtout la nuit avec des enfants. Nous n'avons eu aucun problème en prenant des Uber et la navette gratuite de l'hôtel. Je recommande quand même pour une nuit ou deux
