This hotel was very musty and our room smelled like cigarettes. I know it is a low cost hotel but if I could go back I would spend a little more money to stay elsewhere. The only pro is that the shower water gets warm and the staff is very nice.

No breakfast

An absolutely fantastic stay! The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful, the room was spotlessly clean and very comfortable for the value and the location was perfect for exploring the city. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back!

Riions are clean and staff is helpful and responsive. Our taxi driver told us this is not a safe neighborhood after dark.

The staff smoked cigarettes in the hallways and it seeped into my non-smoking room. You can hear the people having sex five rooms away. It was very uncomfortable and so I checked out after only one night because of the conditions and didn't even get any thing refunded.

Complementary breakfast was not provided. The room was always spotless, clean and fresh. Although this is in a local, residential neighborhood that may seem gritty initially, it is actually a thriving, pulsating area of the city with plenty of clothing, cafe, supermarket and dining options. The staff at the hotel were all lovely and pleasant.

THE CLEANLINESS OF THE BATHROOM AND AND THE OVERALL COMFORTNESS OF THE BED AND ROOM . THE FRIENDLINESS OF THE FRONT STAFF AND MAID. THE CLOSENESS OF THE LOCATION TO RESTAURANTS AND SHOPPING .

Hotel is family run and everyone was very very helpful from travel tips to where to eat. The whole of Athens is full of tired buildings and graffiti, it’s not limited to this area. I’d read earlier reviews about safety however it’s opposite a police station and the biggest reviews tell you not to go to places that are unlit etc we didn’t feel unsafe at all as we kept to the main streets. I travelled back alone from a concert and felt fine. Tip download the Freenow taxi app you see what the trip will cost and can book in advance for local trips. It’s also worth using the hotels pick up airport service because despite what it says on general sites about a flat rate from the airport that’s not the case and many people from the airport had a different experience and different rates that you felt you didn’t have a choice but to pay so use the hotels service we used it going back and it’s an agreed rate arrived in plenty of time and was great. It’s a budget hotel however for somewhere in Athens out of the main city I think it’s a good option for those on a city break. You couldn’t ask for more helpful staff. The local restaurants are local! Meaning that they don’t display menus and hassle you inside and all the locals eat there which is always a good sign. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. Must try is the cake shop nearby Max Perry unbelievable cakes and ice cream and for small cakes literally a few euros for cake heaven! Great few days thank you.

The staff was very friendly. There was no breakfast, but it is two short blocks away from the upscale Kipselis restaurant area. I always walked the km from the metro station, but there is also a bus stop a block away. Not a noisy area.
