The hotel is located very close to the metro and the train station, and it is very convenient to get to and from the airport, and to the city center. Very good value for money.

They say it’s buffet but I got only eggs, youghurt, 5 slices of ham, 6
6 slices of cheese, honey & bread same. My room aircon is not working glad that it’s not summer. Staff is helpfully especially the big guy at night. He help me book taxi going to station. Walkable to Karissa Station going to the airport but if your flight is early like mine the you use the X95 at Stagarma Square

Walking distance from Athens Central Train Station
I reserved this hotel for the location. I will say the walk after dark was a bit sketchy, but the photos looked good.
The buildings outside looked very nice and I was greeted Greekly. Paid for my room and she then noticed I had a dog. I travel with a service dog. I was charged extra for that, handed my key and AC controller.
The room was unique along with the common areas. It was small and needed some upkeep. Bed was Okay and the AC worked. There was WiFi that was good and the shower, unusual as it was, had good hot water.
It has a tiny lift and a lot of common areas. Neighborhood is more industrial, with homeless people and a lot of graffiti. For one night by the train station, it works. There are much better options close to attractions for the same or less money.

I’ll start by naming the positive things: two of the personnel spoke English. The room had a balcony, and the TV worked well (it was during the Olympics so even if all the programs had Greek commentators, it was possible to watch).
The negative things: We had paid a rather high price for breakfast but it was very poor. No vegetables, sometimes no egg, only white toast bread. One morning we had to call on the personnel since there wasn’t any bread and cheese. She was also very rude. A couple of days they served old fruit and other days, no fruit at all.
One of the personnel was very kind and spoke good English. She also let us stay one more hour.
We don’t recommend this hotel.

Nice and helpful staff, clean room with confort beds. Nice view from balcony.
Kind of old furniture, but functional.
Maybe more towels for 3 guests would be nice (we got 2 face + 1 bath towels).
You can add buffet breakfast to your room, simple but enough, located at the rooftop with nice view.

Christmas break that was restful
I usually stay by the Acropolis in Athens but wanted a peaceful, quiet Christmas stay and was given room 103 as was upgraded free in the true spirit of Christmas .
The male receptionist is extremely friendly and his English language is excellent.
I was given a large comfortable room to relax inside and breakfast was even served on Christmas and Boxing Day, the boiled eggs weee yummy and plenty of cereals and cheese to cater for my pescatarian diet .
Lots of restaurants in the area that are reasonably priced for to eat supper and the historic places to visit are a reasonable 25 minute walk away .
So got the Christmas break I wanted and a friendly Greek welcome too.

I sleep there one night (because at night I didn't have where else to go) and then I preffered to look for another place. The man who did my check in was asking me a lot of personal questions and told me really unappropiate things. The room was really bad, it smelled a lot as cigarrate and moisure which you can see in the walls, there where cockroaches, and at night I can listen little paws walking in the walls or roof, the room had a window that went directly to the street and the window didn't had a lock, it seems that someone tried to get in and it was open, and the iron rods were so big that any person can pass throw it. The sheets and towels were dirty and with holes.

They asked me to pay again
I paid through hotel.com and get a receipt and supposed to pay 0.50 cent at the priority
I arrived from the airport at 11:50 PM and the hotel said that they cant get my payment so i have to pay again the whole amount or i have to leave
I alao paid extar for the breakfast and i get cold coffee that is not drinkable and old food that is not eatable
I have stayed in about 100 different hotels the last few years and this was the worst of all time

Do not book here. Rooms advertised are not, and I repeat, are not what you will get at your arrival. This booking has been a living hell. I was given a horrible room at the first floor on the pretense “we are fully booked “ . The room was untidy, bedding smelled badly of uncleaned sheets. Mould on the walls lack of shower handle hence I should have washed using the tap. The breakfast room served on the third floor is not a room but a roof covered with a make-shift something which leave it open to the outside scorching heat and clearly without air conditioning I tried an egg but it was rotten by the heat. I had to physically go around hotels to find a new one as I couldn’t stay there in these conditions. That say it is appalling that Expedia advertises such a place. I used Expedia wrongly thinking these kind of tourists’ trap weren’t allowed on the site. To this date I haven’t received any reimbursement and no help at all by Expedia ( except for a kind operator’s voiced support on how he was sorry but couldn’t do more than a 20€ gift bonus). I felt left alone by Expedia as the reservation was done through the site

Weekend i Aten
Jag är nöjd i stora drag.
Det som var mindre bra var frukost buffén som var väldigt slätstruken fanns knappt något att välja mellan och kaffet var ljummet så min rekommendation är att beställ ingen frukost.
