Just right- location, price, room, breakfast
Can’t believe how great the location is. Some hotels are on an excessively busy street. This one is just right- it’s on a tree and cafe lined street. Perfect combination. Staff are amazing- helpful and friendly. After so much research I’m so very glad I chose AthensWas

A very nice small touristy hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms are small. we had a deluxe. Bathroom is right by bed and did not have a decent mirror in room. Our room was on a lower floor (2d) so basically looked out to the front of the hotel - not great. McDonalds right next door so kind of seedy and lots of kids, etc. My son’s room was in back of hotel. cute balcony but kind of dark. Reviews made me think the front of hotel (“bistro”) would be nicer & more inviting, but I would never think of sitting out there, way too busy with foot traffic and McD’s, etc. Unfortunately we could not keep the balcony doors open at night in our to keep air circulating because of the noise from McD’s and traffic, and fan system was not very useful. It is great location if this is your first time exploring Athens though. They serve an inordinate amount of food at breakfast. Very nicely prepared & I guess having really big individually prepared breakfasts is a real plus for some travelers. Note: They packed breakfast boxes for us one morning and they were really pathetic; not worth the 15€ they charge for breakfasts. (We had 2 rooms, one of us arrived on 3d day & hotel told us they charged €15 a day for extra person in room. One of those days was for the ridiculous hard fruit and hard mini ham & cheese white bread sandwich.)
