Staffs are friendly. Nice and clean room. The male staff at the front desk helped me to find taxi at 0230 in the morning. As a solo traveler and as a female, this is such a big help for my safety. Thank you very much Socrates.

Perfect location. This was our second stay. Same price. The first stay we had a 5th floor balcony with a city view. On this second stay, same room type was booked, but this time the room was smaller and the balcony had no view. The view is terrific, so if this is important to you, negotiate accordingly.

The room was not clean. We found ants in the bathroom that were spreading into the room. On colder days, we tried to use the radiator (which was actually an air conditioning unit), but it didn’t work. The next day, we found a dead cockroach in the bathroom, which made us feel that the space wasn’t properly cleaned. Additionally, the place needs improvements as it does not look like the pictures advertised, and there are no photos of the bathroom, which feels misleading. We originally booked for five nights, but due to these issues, we decided to leave early and booked another place for the last two nights. We only stayed three nights instead of the full stay we had planned.

Can't really complain given the cost. Location was good, very close to Larissa station and only a 10 minute metro away from Syntagma square. Surrounding area isn't as bad or sketchy as other reviews suggest imo. Room did smell of smoke initially but I had a balcony so smell went away after having the door open for a while. Had to pay for water out of a vending machine in reception which was slightly obnoxious but only 50 cent a bottle. Also, Expedia led me to believe that the city tax was included in the booking but I was still charged 15 euro on site. Staff were friendly. Room was bare minimum but functional. Would probably use again as a budget option if I wanted to stay in Athens.

Can hear the traffic very loud, can't sleep well at night. Bed is just ok. The shower room is really small that you doesn't know how to sit on the toilet. Location is 35 minutes walk to Athens centre Which is quite good for us A convenient shop of next to the hotel but just another next street is mini supermarket. And on Wednesday has street market .

Checked in, room ready but dirty, they gave me a second room. Less dirty, left for a few hours to see the sights, upon return sat down with my laptop, within a few minutes felt itchy, developed rash on leg, saw cigarette ashes in the floor. Decided to find something else. Should perhaps have complained to front desk, but wrote it off as a lost cause, so checked out by 9:30. Did not want to risk picking up bedbugs, of which I’d also seen possible signs in the first room.

This place itself was nice, however, the area was sketchy at best. It’s not that hotels fault that public transit is absolute garbage, but it should be noted because it is super close to the central train terminal. So you might think that’s helpful for getting around. It’s not. If you’re adventurous enough, I recommend renting a car, using a good maps system, and paying for insurance. The people who ran this hotel were super nice, I need to reiterate this, because it seems like I didn’t like the overall stay. They were great
