Great hotel, staff and location, recommend!
Pros:

Fantastic staff and location. You can literally go everywhere from here and it is close by two metro stations. The place is quiet and the AC was amazing. Breakfast is also included in the price which is nice. Also there is a cute store cat next door.

Cons:

It is a bit old-fashioned in the style, but this is really not a problem for us. One last small thing is that you get served a full breakfast, and we felt a bit bad for not eating it all, but we could have probably asked to get a bit less.

Pros:

Localização perfeita , perto dos principais pontos turísticos, funcionários solícitos, excelente café da manha. As instalações que são antigas e pequenas. Mas vale muito a pena levando em consideração que hotel é só para dormir

Localização excelente, mas pode melhorar
Pros:

O melhor do hotel é sua localização, fizemos todos os passeios a pé. Perto do hotel, há várias locadoras de veículos (cerca de 10min a pé) e estacionamentos muito próximos, o que facilita para quem irá alugar carro. O quarto, apesar de não ser grande, tem cama e travesseiro muito confortáveis.

Cons:

O chuveiro é muito desconfortável, pequeno e com cortina de plástico. O café da manhã também deixou a desejar, com poucas opções, sem qualquer variação nos dias da semana e café morno.

Bien ubicado, ubicación y servicios correctos a un precio razonable.
Pros:

La ubicación es buena, en la zona de Placa. Fuimos a hacer la excursión de la Acrópolis y el Partenón y estábamos a menos de 10 minutos caminando y muy cerca también de las zonas comerciales y gastronómicas.
El desayuno y la habitación correctas.

Cons:

Nada que resaltar.

A localização é muito boa.
Pros:

Localização é realmente muito boa. Da pra fazer toda a parte central a pé. Atendimento bom.

Cons:

A estrutura não é muito boa. Prédio antigo, barulho alto ao mexer nas portas, cortina ruim pra isolar o chuveiro (sem box). Preço relativamente alto.

Worth considering if you want a great location.
Pros:

Neat, clean and tidy.
Great location.
Breakfast is Greek style but quite good.

Cons:

If I was being super critical the shower is quite small so it might be difficult for larger people.

Pros:

L’hospitalité du personnel, leur humour et leur gentillesse. Tous les personnels nous ont aidé chaque fois et nous ont donné des conseils.
L’hôtel est très bien placé.

Cons:

Pas grand-chose, peut-être la taille de la douche; mais c’est ok pour le séjour.
