Pros:

There was a 24 hour reception, staff were really friendly and helpful. Our room was a really good size and had air conditioning and a little fridge. Very close to the metro station and a stop for the hop on hop off bus. The cafe downstairs was really nice and handy.

Cons:

The shower in the bathroom is at an odd height. There is a homeless community living in the street across from the hotel but it can easily be avoided.

I definitely enjoyed my stay and would be happy to return.
Pros:

The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful throughout my stay. They were always welcoming, polite, and ready to assist with anything I needed. Their warm attitude and excellent service made my stay much more comfortable and enjoyable.

Cons:

Everything was excellent. The only minor issue I experienced was that, perhaps because of my size, I found the toilet area a bit tight, as the seat is positioned very close to the bathtub.

Confortevole soggiorno ad Atene
Pros:

Personale gentile e disponibile. Camere semplici ma fornite del necessario. Possibilità di fare colazione nel bar adiacente, checkout tardivo e deposito bagaglio.

Cons:

La zona non è molto bella ma io ero da sola e sono andata a piedi in centro città. La sera ho preso il taxi e mi sono spostata a piedi per mangiare lì vicino senza fare troppa strada.

Einer der schlimmsten Orte in Athen
Pros:

Nur Rezensionen Personal

Cons:

Das Hotel lag in einer ungünstigen Lage. Es befand sich in einer belebten und gefährlichen Gegend. Bis spät in die Nacht war es laut von Autos und Motorrädern, und ich konnte nicht schlafen. Sollte ich jemals wieder nach Athen reisen, werde ich dieses Hotel definitiv nicht mehr wählen.

Pros:

Being close to all turistic areas such as Kolonaki, Syntagma, Plaka, Omonia by walking max 15-20 mins and also 2-3 mins away from M2 metro line (3 stops to Syntagma Square). There is a cafe which has a connection to reception, next to the hotel where you can find sandwiches and drinks. Staff is very helpfull and kind.

Cons:

There is always a smell of cigarette in the room. The hotel street was noisy at night.
There were a lot of homeless and drunk people at the opposite street and eastern part of the hotel however they didn't bother anyone and there was a constant police presence in the area.

CUMPLIO SIN MAS.
Pros:

HOTEL BASTANTE ANTIGUO, NECESITA REFORMA, NO HABIA DESAYUNOS PERO TENIA UNA CAFETERIA EL HOTEL QUE ESTABA BASTANTE BIEN. EL PERSONAL MUY AMABLE Y LA ZONA CERCA DEL METRO CON BASTANTE GENTE DURMIENDO EN LA CALLE CERCA AUNQUE SIN PROBLEMAS. ESTO PASA BASTANTE POR EN CENTRO DE ATENAS.

Cons:

EL MEJORAR UN POCO EL ASPECTO DEL HOTEL Y HABITACIONES, SOLO LA CAFETERIA TIENE UN ASPECTO MAS ACTUAL Y CONFORTABLE.
