The hotel has pretty old rooms, a bit expensive for their condition and without a view, but they do provide air conditioning and a good bed which they gave me upon arrival. The service is very friendly, prepared breakfast even for our early morning departure, and made us feel comfortable throughout the stay with helpful advice. The location is very central, close to major tourist areas but with some dodgy aspects in the surrounding area. The dining could be better, though generally okay.

The hotel had a clean and comfortable room with a double bed, which was well-equipped until my friends left. The service was exceptionally helpful and provided kind advice not only about the accommodation but also about the city. The location was situated at the base of the Acropolis, close to local areas such as the Acropolis and centrally located near main streets. The dining experience was delicious, offering Indonesian dishes. Overall, the hotel offers excellent service in a centric area with some minor inconveniences regarding power points in the rooms.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were pretty good in size and comfortable, though not exactly as depicted in the booking photos initially provided. The service was more than friendly, especially appreciated when they prepared breakfast in advance for our early departure. The location was convenient, being close to the city center and public transport. The dining options were okay, offering the essentials but lacking variety. However, the nearby market area looked a bit dirty in some places.

I cannot get over how amazing the location of this hotel is! Right by all the important spots in Athens, and I adore the view of the Acropolis from the balcony. The rooms were cozy, but I just wish there was a bit more space for two people. The service was incredibly helpful, no matter what time it was. I must say, the dining was just alright, but it did the job. Overall, a great experience for a fair price.
