Pros:

. The location is very close to the central streets. Walking distance to major attractions. Even at night there are a lot of passers-by.
The breakfast was good and tasty. Lots of juices.
I would like to note the cleanliness and tidying of the room. Excellent staff who are responsive to all requests
And a small note: there is no wardrobe in the room, but there is a rail with the necessary number of hangers for two people.

Cons:

The elevator is very cramped, even though it is new. It barely fits two people. Traveling with a suitcase is practically impossible for two people. However, it is almost always free and the wait is minimal.

מלון בוטיק קטן ומשופץ במיקום מושלם
Pros:

פעם שניה שאני במלון הזה ונראה לי שזה הפך למלון הקבוע שלי באתונה. ניקי בקבלה מקסימה עזרה לי ביום הראשון שהגעתי עם איזו בעיה שהייתה לי ומצאה לי פתרון מהר, באדיבות ובחיוך! החדר מצוין, הכל נקי בצורה יוצאת דופן

Cons:

הדוש במקלחת דרוש תיקון או החלפה לחדש

Convenient location
Pros:

Very convenient location: good access to most of the important tourist attractions in Athens. There are restaurants all around. Although the Plaka neighborhood receives all the praise, and the hotel is located there, don't forget to also visit Kolonaki, which is less touristy, has excellent restaurants, and is within walking distance.

Cons:

The rooms we stayed in were the family version: two connected rooms for privacy (excellent), but there was no option for separate beds for my two teenage children. I think this is a point that the hotel should reconsider. I have a boy and a girl, and this situation becomes somewhat unsettling after a few nights. They were not uncomfortable, but would be better to have a choice between single or double beds for the children.

Moderno, limpio y muy bien ubicado
Pros:

El hotel era moderno, muy limpio y contaba con una zona para desayunar. Llegamos antes de la hora del check-in y, muy amablemente, nos permitieron esperar en una sala de estar situada en la primera planta. Además, tuvieron el detalle de dejarnos desayunar mientras esperábamos.

El personal fue muy atento y amable durante toda la estancia. Desde el hotel hay muy buenas vistas, incluso se puede ver la Acrópolis, y el aire acondicionado funciona de maravilla, algo que se agradece especialmente en verano.

Cons:

Ascensor un poco pequeño.

Excellent location , balcony room 100%
Pros:

The location was perfect. A short walk to the Manohla area, but just far enough to be quiet in the evening. We had the top room with a huge balcony with an amazing view of the Acropolis.

Cons:

The room itself is beautiful and modern and clean, but it is a bit tight. However, the balcony area more than makes up for it! We spent all of our evening on the balcony.
