The hotel offers a fantastic mix of city views from the roof balcony, surrounded by lively streets below. The rooms provide all necessary facilities, although some creativity is required for luggage placement. The wrap-around balcony was a lovely touch, but there was a slight odor from the bathroom drains.

The staff were friendly and helpful during our stay. However, they did not offer assistance with carrying our bags, which would have been a nice gesture considering the room price. The presence of smoke from the adjacent office affected the breakfast area ambiance.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The room was really spacious with an incredible price, featuring a new comfortable bed and pillow. I even had a great view of the Acropolis from my small balcony, allowing me to enjoy the changing colors of the scenery. The hotel's location added to the charm of my stay.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The room, although small as expected for an economy option in central Athens, was clean with a nice view over the traditional downtown. The service was overall helpful, but there were times when it lacked consistency. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of Athens, close to major attractions. The dining provided a variety of options but was not exceptional. The facilities were adequate, offering the essentials for a comfortable stay.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clear and had everything I needed, but the cigarette smell was off-putting initially. The location was convenient with great access to restaurants and the metro station. However, the noise from the restaurant downstairs could get bothersome at times.

The hotel's rooms were in need of repairs and lacked adequate light-blocking curtains, giving a sterile and stark feel. Major upgrades are necessary or a significant price reduction should be considered. The service provided was kind, effective, and timely with very friendly and helpful staff. The location was excellent, close to various bars and restaurants as well as major attractions. Although the meals were normal fare, the breakfast was satisfactory.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room, though small like many others in Athens, was clean with a nice balcony providing a great view of the Acropolis, but it was older and smaller than expected. The service was helpful and friendly, though there was occasional smoking near the breakfast area. The location was very convenient, close to major sights and restaurants but on a noisy street. The dining was satisfactory although not outstanding. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.

The dining experience met my expectations with a basic selection including eggs, meat, cheeses, and fruits. However, the fried eggs, scrambled eggs, and hot dogs were mediocre, and the area could have been fresher without the smoke.
