Hotel rooms are nice, but basic, with very comfortable beds - which is the most important thing (next to location) in my opinion. As far as location goes, it’s in an area that makes most everything accessible by walking, however the immediate 2-3 blocks around the hotel are currently looking very rough. I don’t think it’s unsafe, just unsightly and the streets are a mix of dirt and cement filled with potholes. But just walk a couple blocks south and you’re in a much nicer area. Overall a comfortable stay though, and the rooftop bar view is amazing, private and quiet, with a great, friendly bartender, Nikos.

The staff here couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful! We would stay here again, but not in the middle of summer, without a pool the heat was unbearable and we had pay to use the pool at another hotel nearby. Just a plunge pool would have been great (but the plunge pool is now unused).

The service here was phenomenal! The front desk staff was prompt to answer questions and arrange transportation whenever we needed. The room was spacious, modern and clean. Location was walking distance to nearly everything that we wanted to explore in Athens and only a short metro ride if we didn’t want to walk as far. Our room had multiple balconies with amazing views! Also, really enjoyed the restaurant located beside the hotel.

The room was very nice, spacious, clean and overall great value for what I paid. Check in was smooth. One highlight was the restaurant just outside the hotel serving delicious, authentic Greek food. While the immediate area around the hotel feels a bit gritty, you are just a 5 minute walk from several nice spots and major attractions, which makes the location very convenient overall.
