The total stay was pleasant for a short visit in athens at the end of our Greece vacation. That hotel was in an ideal location, close to subway. After long day we visited La Grande Piatsa for a couple of drinks.

The location was decent because it was short walk to a shaded plaza, also metro station and a metro station and 2 from Acropolis. The breakfast had variety of gorgeous food and drinks.

The double room is cool with international channels, a bathroom, air conditioning. The hotel boasts central location close to the center. Stuff are responsive and don't miss their shuttle from the airport.
The bathrooms are very small.

All good - we really enjoyed this very good budget hotel - the food was lovely and the staff were very amiable. The room was nicely decorated, with a personal bathroom. The outdoor restaurant was outdoor with a wide array of meals in the menu.

The rooms well-maintained and new-fashioned with a bathroom, edible breakfast, the internet. Marvellous location with private parking available right by all the main attractions, and the metro station and the Rio.

I greatly enjoyed the hotel, everything was great here. The room was new-fashioned with a comfy bed and the staff were courteous. The location was marvellous, just a pleasant stroll away from Omonia Square. Further, it was really close to the National Archaeological Museum, and metro, which was handy for early morning trip to the airport.
