Great location, very friendly and helpful staff
Great 9 night stay. The great central location next to Syntagma Square, Metro and Ermou is a major positive. The staff were friendly and helpful at all times. Room and bathroom very clean. The room was a good size at 22m2, though the bathroom is a little cramped, though functional. Small balcony. Lots of shopping restaurant and bars very close. Good heating and air conditioning. Walls are a bit thin though. For a couple of nights there was a group who were non stop banging and slamming next door, at all hours. Rest of the time was ok, just unlucky I guess with a ridiculously unruly family. Very good breakfast, and stunning views of the Acropolis from the rooftop restaurant. Will definitely stay again.
