Beside two strip joint, street was noisy, Mattress was very dirty, they swapped me to a different room, the mattress was still dirty but less dirty than first one. The bathroom of the second room, smelled like sewer, and was very damp. As a result I noticed the bathroom door wouldn’t close and it was due to the fact that water would not drain and rotten the wooden door. This is a 3 star hotel. Staff were decent

Rooms are really grand in size (comparing to other European hotels). Rooms marked with Acropolis view, are just a myth, you need binoculars to see Acropolis. Also this hotel is next to a strip club, we got room on 1st floor, there was very noisy music till 1am in the morning, could hardly sleep.
