The hotel was clean and immediately in the flee market area. Staff were incredibly nice and helpful. The elevator is a small, but wasn’t an issue. There was some music noise, but wasn’t as bad as reviews from area hotels report. I would stay is this hotel again

There were lots of positives about this hotel, but for us we were really disappointed that the balcony was looking across another units balcony and the 2 roof top restaurants were right underneath (e.g don’t wear a skirt if sitting out there) meaning we had to keep our curtains closed the whole time to not have people at their tables looking straight into our room. The express check in was also confusing, we received all the details to check ourselves in and then got a phone call asking when we would be arriving. I think if we had of been on a higher floor and on the corner this would have been closer to what we were expecting.

Great location to a nice apartment hotel

Location is very good. At the heart of Flea market of Athens for those who like the mess... My company reserved rooms with breakfast however breakfast is served very late (0800) and I was unable to attend any breakfast. When asking what can be done I got a very disappointing reply - it's your problem. Not what I expected.

Sweet little hotel in downtown Athens

Lovely view of Acropolis and other ancient sites. Lots of little openair restaurants eatin/takeout in relaxed neighborhood. Beautiful walkin shower. Drawback is stairs without handrail at entrance. Immaculate, complimentary rose to drink on balcony while contemplating Acropolis.

Great location

This hotel was in an excellent location for our purposes. Easy M3 train from the airport to Monastiraki neighborhood. From here it's a 5 minute walk to the hotel. The room is small but comfortable. The bed was extremely comfortable. The street in front was busy so bring high quality earplugs. The restaurant next door blasted music most nights until 3 am and the street in front is busy with people. There are hundreds of restaurants in the area. We walked everywhere. The Acropolis and other major and minor attractions are within easy walking distance. Easy access by train to the ferry port, as well.

This is the place to stay when in Athens

The hotel staff was very easy to communicate with before and during our stay. I had several questions before we arrived and they were quick to respond and extremely helpful. The staff is amazing, they always greeted us with a smile, and were always available to assist when needed. The hotel is clean and always smells great. The attendants who cleaned our room did a great job. The hotel is very clean and well kept. The property is within walking distance to the metro station and the area, although busy and can be noisy, is safe and does not interfere with a peaceful rest and comfort of the room. The staff makes all the difference and you will enjoy your stay here. The hotel is central to all of the sites you want ot visit.

Great location, friendly staff

Hotel was perfect, from location, to our welcome. We were just going to drop bags at 0900 after our cruise, instead we were escorted to our room; Room had a nice balcony with a Parthenon view along with included bottle of wine. Comfortable bed, and nice size room. Hotel arranged transportation both from the port and to the airport. Both were at a good price.
