Perfect location, breakfast, views, pool, staff

The hotel is perfect for a trip to Athens. I was alone with my 2 year old and we had a wonderful stay. The location and pool and rooftop restaurant are the absolute best. Only thing; we had a king room and it was really small, and the beds were 2 singles not joined together so they kept rolling apart. Other than that, great!

The staff and the location are perfect. We were supposed to stay two nights but we had a cancelation in our ferry because of the winds. We arrived one day later and, even if we were not allowed to change or cancel our reservation, either not refundable, the hotel accepted to refund the first night. For sure we will stay there next time.
