Perfect location near to metro, Acropolis, shopping, etc. Very kind and helpful staff. Clear quiet and relatively well-equipped room. This is a value-money hotel.

Everything was good but what I liked most was the friendliness of the hotel staff and the breakfast/dinner with the excellent view of the Acropolis. It was really beautiful to visit Athenas I hope to return in the near future ......
