The good: decent clean property with a few standard amenities. Staff is friendly and the shower had great water pressure.
The bad: unsafe area. We saw multiple prostitution and hard drug usage just 2-3 blocks away from the property on our walk back to the hotel. Also, the mattresses provided no support and hardly any padding with several spring bumps on the surface.
I had a wonderful experience during my stay. The staff was excellent — incredibly helpful, kind, and always ready to assist. They went above and beyond to make my visit comfortable and enjoyable. I especially appreciated their support in helping me navigate through Athens, offering guidance and recommendations that made a big difference. Thank you for the outstanding service!
Friendly receptionists. Clean room and nice breakfast.
But shower was not useful.

Wir waren insgesamt zufrieden mit unserem Aufenthalt. Das Personal war freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Zimmer sowie die Unterkunft allgemein waren sauber und ordentlich.
Das Frühstück war in Ordnung, könnte aber etwas abwechslungsreicher und qualitativ besser sein.
Wir hatten ein Promo-Zimmer gebucht. Es war in Ordnung, allerdings wäre mehr Tageslicht schön gewesen – baulich ist das jedoch vermutlich nicht anders möglich.
Insgesamt ein guter Aufenthalt mit kleineren Abstrichen.
