We stayed at the hotel for 2 nights. We booked on Hotels.com. We wanted a place that was close to a Metro station and that was inexpensive. The hotel ticks both of the checks. Everything else about the hotel was horrible.
The shower did not have a proper surround at its bottom so you end up getting water all over the bathroom floor. The towels must be air drying and washed without using softener as they were “crusty.” There were stains on the walls and floors from previous guests that had not been properly cleaned. There were broken handles on doors. The bed was very uncomfortable and the pillows were horrible. The hotel tried to do some updating in the room by adding some bed lights. However in doing so they used exposed screws so if you had an adapter you could not use the electrical socket (see my picture of this). There was no safe. And it was loud - not just from the traffic outside but from stuff going on inside the hotel - and I’m talking late at night (2:00am). Thankfully we did not get bedbugs, mostly due to the fact that we slept above the covers in full sweat pants and tops.
It is in a sketchy part of town with lots of graffiti. However, it is a short 10 minute walk to the Plaka. We did not feel unsafe when we walked there.

Good hotel for the price - shower-head isn’t mounted properly, beds are very firm, but overall a decent place to stay. Air conditioning was great. Located a 10 minute walk from touristy areas, decent neighborhood.
Any business that cannot even spell its name properly is not ready for business. They hotel was stuffy. We booked 3 nights and stayed 2. We spent the entire day out, and came back to no lights in the corridor and no lights in our room. We were provided other accomadations, however the following morning attendant accussed us of causing the outage. The Audacity.

Not bad for the price, water pressure in the shower needs help
The hotel is good located just 20 minutes walking for the Acropolis, the problem were the towels, stiff and old towels, no even a bottle of water in the room,
For the money! Just AWESOME... Main reason why we picked this hotel is because of the front desk 24/7.
Super close to the train. Short walk. We weren't expecting much for the price but this was really a welcome treat. The room even had a mini fridge! We will stay again !
When closed bathroom door it locked. Had to go at reception 2am to pick up bathroom keys. They have no service phone to call reception and the lift takes ages to go up & down. Area around it’s dirty & unsafe.

The staff at the reception was not very friendly.
The hotel and room were old looking and not very nice.
