This property was in a great location - very walkable to restaurants, shopping and the Acropolis. While there is a lot of graffiti in and around the buildings, the area felt very safe. The room is very small so you need to get creative if you have two suitcases. We stayed for 2 nights so it was not an issue. It could be if you are stYing for longer. Fabulous roof top bar!

The hotel location was great, very central, closed to the one of main shopping area with lots of eateries. Bar at the top of the hotel is good. Rooms despite having a deluxe room, it was on the small side. Staff was very friendly and the breakfast wasn’t all that great, very basic.

Excellent location, easy walk to the Acropolis entry point. Botanic gardens and the Panatheon not far either. Lots of places to eat nearby, mixed in amongst some local shops. Area felt safe. Staff were nice and very helpful in booking a taxi to the airport for a fixed charge of 40€. Room was compact but was ok, typical of Europe.

This place is run down. The rooms are so small. If you are coming with any large luggage, you'll barely be able to open it in the room. Additionally, the elevators are only large enough to accommodate two people, so you'll likely wait all day for them. I thoroughly inspected the beds for bedbugs but did not find any. Upon waking, we noticed what appeared to be a bed bug in one of the beds. The shower was filthy with mold on the side. If you're staying here, pack light. And be on the lookout for bedbugs, which may be in some of the beds. Inspect your luggage when you get home to make sure you didn't take any home with you.
