The hotel was 2 min away from the train station which coast 1.20 euro and 15 minutes from the city (both by train and Uber) were all the stores and attractions are. An Uber coast between 4 and 6 euros. The reason I gave the hotel a 3 star review was because of the smell of the room and how uncomfortable the bed was. It smelled like old cigarettes and bad breath. The bed was basically on the floor with 2 pillows total and the bed was so hard my back and head hurt every day. If your in Athens for a day and your going to be exploring the city all day then this would be an ok option, but I feel there could be better options near by.

For 2 young boys from Canada traveling around Europe this place had everything we needed. Bathroom wasn’t anything special but worked. The two twin beds were perfect for the two of us and it was nice being able to walk everywhere. There’s no where in Athens you can’t walk in less then 30 minutes. Overall it was a good stay for the money

The property was great but the receptionist, Sydney, made us feel so welcomed and gave great recommendations! In addition, she was helpful in answering our questions, reserving taxis, and providing great customer service.

All staff were friendly and helpful. I stayed at fifth floor and I had water pressure problem for showering after complaining. They immediately change my room. New room was much bigger and better shower size wear super tiny Internet speed was OK but choppy shower water just was warm and the size of TV was so small.

Selected for proximity to Larissa Station - therefore airport - and didn’t disappoint. Economical option four metro stops from Syntagma. Clean room, comfortable and helpful staff. Extended stay by a night and would book there again when back in Athens.

Outdate and uncomfortable
The two beds were pushed together to make a double but there was no layer on top so it was very uncomfortable, the mattress was super thin and so were the pillows. The place was very outdated. staff were friendly though
