Overall I'd say this is an OK place to stay for one person or possibly a couple. I got a standard room with a double bed so it was a bit small, and the bathroom was small as well. Some of the furniture looked a bit worn and daamged (mainly the desk) but the bed was comfortable and the rooftop area was a plus (with view of the Acropolis). I would probably stay here again if I'm in the area again, and I guess the price reflected what I got, which is pretty good considering this hotel is within walking distance of most key areas of Athens (Acropolis, Monistraki, Plaka, Syntagma Square, etc). It's just the condition and size of the room are the only "issues" for me (there was stuff left under the bed so it doesn't look like it was swept very well for example, and the desk was damaged a bit but other than that, the room was fine. Elevator is very small so if you have a lot of bags or large bags, this can be a challenge as it's kind of like an industrial elevator than a regular elevator you might find elsewhere (it's narrow and small). The stairs are also narrow and small compared to other place I've stayed in Europe. But the breakfast and the Acropolis views did make it more worth it (plus it's location within Athens).

Staff was great. Location was good for shopping and restaurants. Parking can be an issue unless you’re lucky. Cleanliness wasn’t the best. The bathroom had a lot of issues. It’s in the middle of a shopping center so we expected noise. We don’t realize the church next to it rang a bell for each hour and on the half hour all day and all night. We were fortunate and had the 5th floor apartment facing the acropolis so that was a win. Overall I would probably look elsewhere next time although the staff was wonderful.

One thing was the shower. It was too much for that small area so there wasn't a curtain that was adequate to keep the water in the shower. there was water everywhere! It was unavoidable! the breakfast was a good price as it included coffee and juice. The room was small but I expected that for the price I paid and being in Europe

The budget room is small but , clean and comfortable. The Acropolis view from the room deck was unreal! The breakfast on the deck was great with a fresh omelet and toast. You are in the middle of Monistriaki with restaurants everywhere. The metro to the Airport is a 5 minute walk away. Great staff and very quiet considering where you are. Highly recommend.

I have never been led astray when relying on Trip Advisor and Expedia reviews until now. I know the cheap rate is tempting, but don’t do it. The pictures are not even remotely close to what the room looked like. The room was absurdly small, but that’s not the worst part. It was so incredibly loud all night, it sounded like our window was open (it wasn’t, it was just poor sound proofing or bad window/door seals). There’s absolutely no sound proofing or insulation between rooms, you can hear it all! There were no advertised pictures of the bathroom for the double room and for good reason. The shower was so small that you could not turn the water on all the way or the floor would get wet. The bathroom smelled like sewage constantly, not sure if it was the dirty shower curtain or a sewage pipe issue. We hated going back to the hotel room. That’s one of the only times I’ve felt that way and I’ve travelled on a budget many times. It was a good location, but there are other options in that location, check those out, I wish I had.

Busy area full of businesses nearby including one of the most important Churches within the city. Hotel was surrounded by restaurants , ice cream shops, stores , and less than 10 min walk to the acropolis area.
