Great location.
This is a great location for a stay in this area. The room was very clean. The breakfast was a take-out style, but surprising in its selection. It is nice to see that someone put some thought in providing a safe breakfast with good options.
Okay for the price
Overall ok place to stay. The rooms could definitely use some TLC. Some of the paint in the bathroom was bubbling and peeling, likely due to not having an exhaust fan in it. One of the pillows was also yellow, it was that old. Clean room overall though, and ok for the price. Our only issues were the mask requirements - signs everywhere, but not a mask in sight worn by other guests, and staff didn’t say a word to any of them. Seems this attitude is prevalent everywhere in Athens. On the Friday night of our stay, a family checked in late around midnight, not only woke us up, but kept us up for an hour as they moved furniture, dropped numerous items and let their kids stomp around above us. The front desk staff was great, having to go up twice (not their fault) to have them quiet down.

Average Hotel
Customer service was good and the room was clean. With COVID precautions, there was no breakfast buffet, but heat and serve items were provided. There were hand sanitizer stations by the elevators. This is an older hotel so not too many frills.
