Great hotel. Close to all the central sites. Freinfly Staff. comfortable beds. Convenient location to Acropolis and Plaka district. Reasonable price including continental breakfast. Most importantly, it was only a few blocks from the metro. I stayed only one night after flying back to Athens from a vaction in Crete the night before my return flight to the US. I wanted I hotel where I could take the metro to/from the airport (6 euros each way) instead of paying cab fares. The staffs were very friendly and helpful. The location is excellent, close to the main tourist attraction areas just 5 to 10 minutes away and next to the metro station. Also some nice restaurants just round the corner. The room is a little bit small but is clean. The toilet facilities is very clean as well. Breakfast is god but can do with some variety during the wee. Inclusive breakfast was very excellent. hotel was quiet, beds comfortable and located in a good area, handy to tourist sites and Acropoli Metro Station. Close to all the main tourist attractions. Convenient location, quiet rooms. Location and accessibility. This hotel was close to Athens city center but at a reasonable price. Basic amenities, not luxury, but clean and nice. Can walk everywhere of a tourist nature. Not on a main street and was quiet. Room and amentities worked as intended and Internet was conveniently available. Great location, decent breakfast, helpful staff.Proximity to the Acropolis and Plaka area. Short disrtance to Akropolis and Plaka. location and good value for money. Nice staff, good breakfast. cleanliness of the room. location. Quiet environment, location. Customer service is, on the whole, great, especially the breakfaststaff. Staff are helpful with sightseeing assistance, with storage ofluggage. Some reception staff go out of their way to be pleasant inspite of enormous pressure at the peak season time of the year. Wealways stay at this hotel and have done so since 1996. staff at reception were very helpful especially especially an elderly gentleman by the name of Constanze. Friendly people.Its position. We have stayed there before. Good quality bed.rooms too small, air conditioner was not worked efficiently and the room was very cold. Not really, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay there. [On some of your statements you probably need to have another statement. Such as the two below this: I never looked at website.Difficulty in checking out. Peolple ahead of us had trouble with their billing which caused us to wait a long time to check out. Taxi was waiting to take us to the airport for 6am flight. The room was really small! There were no dresser drawers to store stuff.But all in all it was more comfortable than we expected.Room and bathroom were quite small. We wish that the room was slightly bigger.room a bit on the small side, only one chair. TV was old and did not have good reception. Not a big deal for my purpose.Not much privacy in the room as we can hear next room occupants' conversation. Air conditioning unit was erratic. Breakfast was not very exciting!. Hard to get ice - an American thing, true of all Europe I believe but some was available.Would have liked a cafe or restaurant, although guests can use those of the sister hotel on a nearby street. We were not told that the hotel was undergoing renovations. We navigated around construction workers and the associated noises. The staff made it bearable and we probably wouldn't have stayed there had we known. The rooms are very small, but we've come to expect this in Europe.Double room for two is very small. Air con in some rooms were not maintained well, this is a problem inAthens Summer. Maintenance person did not repair it and we sweltered,especially the baby in our party. We stayed here several times this tripto Greece and on subsequent stays there was no problem with air con. Wealso found that our special requests for the baby (cot or Dble bed/nonsmoking) were not taken into account.Room size could have been bigger. The room was too small.The front of house staff were rude and not at all friendly.Our friends who we recommended to stay also thought the same.Shame as it spoilt the experience... No admosphere - hotel and neighbourhood, outdated, small room, we made non-smoking reservation but still had to ask for it (was luckely available), trouble with pay per credit card, etc.
