Excellent Location and Helpful Staff
convenient location helpful staff late check-in
The hotel's location near the metro and train stations was convenient. I found the staff to be helpful. They gave clear directions to local spots. My very late check-in was accommodated without extra charges. They stored my luggage after check-out allowing me to continue exploring until my flight!!!
The decor looks old and needs updating, and the bathroom was quite small. I think a little investment could make a difference.
Service
9/10
The staff provided very helpful directions to the Acropolis and nearby restaurants. They offered free late check-in and held bags after I checked out, quite useful for exploring the area.
Facilities
8/10
The hotel is located next to both the metro and train stations, offering easy access to transportation. They looked after bags enabling me to explore until my departure. These services enhanced my travel experience.
Rooms
9/10
My room was large and clean. It included air conditioning, a TV, and fresh towels. I had a fridge though I didn't use it. The door had a good lock for added security.

I easily found local places to eat and drink, so the lack of food service was not a problem for me.

Excellent Location and Friendly Staff!!!
friendly staff convenient metro nearby coffee shops
I found the staff to be friendly and helpful. The metro station is a short, three-minute walk away, very convenient for getting around. there are two coffee shops just a minute away, great for morning coffee.
The shower was a bit small, made maneuvering a challenge.
Dining

Coffee shops are located around the corner from the hotel, offering quick access to breakfast options, I found these very convenient, as I could easily grab a coffee each morning. A petrol station nearby offers various food and drink choices.
