False advertising, did not include listed amenities, areas, and perks. We booked this property for the advertised hot tub and sauna to relax after walking around athens. . Hot tub and sauna were both not in service, looked like they were never used and were simply there for show. Other than that, check in was easy, room was clean but small. Area was good. Would be worth is for cheaper price and if amenities and lack there of was transparent

I wouldn’t recommend this place for a family. It gets superloud at night, we could not sleep at all ! There is a lor of people drinking and partying on the streets (there is a bar next door). You can hear everything ! (Earplugs don’t work for that). Also the sofa-beds are VERY uncomfortable !! The way at the front desk was super helpful though bit again not a good place for a family !

Excellent location right by Monastiraki square and metro stop. Rooms are small and simple, as is the rooftop - a few tables and chairs to enjoy the evening. The hotel is eco friendly so you need to request cleaning service if you’re staying for multiple nights. A great home base if you want to explore downtown Athens

While this hotel is in a great location, the room itself needs some improvement. First the bathroom - it is impossible to shower without flooding. We had to use several towels to keep the water contained. The drain is slow and not placed in an efficient spot, so the water pools and eventually runs out of the shower. The toilet was also a problem, as the lid would close on your back when sitting on it. Small issues but annoying nonetheless. The bed was fairly comfortable, but only had a flat sheet draped on the mattress. Every movement caused that sheet to shift leaving the mattress exposed. I know the mattress is there, but seeing it exposed is very distasteful. For blankets we were provided with another flat sheet, which was fine, and a thin cotton blanket. The problem with the cotton blanket is that it was not queen sized, leaving two people trying to fit under a double blanket, which didn't work well. We were only here for two nights, so these issues were tolerable, as the location really was fantastic. This would have been a terrible stay had we been there for longer.

The location is perfect for a short stay in Athens, the only downside is that at night it can be loud outside and the room is bad isolated, so it is difficult to sleep.

La habitacion cumple con todo lo necesario para un buen descanso ya que es tipo loft y lo mejor es que la habitacion que elegimos tiene acceso a la calle por lo que nos fue facil movernos ya que esta justo en el centro de monasteraki y llevabamos mucho equipaje. De esta ubicacion puedes caminar hacia todo lo emblematico y el metro esta a 1 cuadra. Cuenta con un roof garden y jacuzzi que puedes usar a 15e por persona por hora y hay que considerar que es una zona de mucho movimiento y ruido ya que al dar a la calle la gente pasa todo el tiempo pero te regalan tus tapones para los oidos para aminorar este tema.

I am providing 1 star rating just for the disappointing service. The airline we booked with cancelled all flights and we were unable to make the trip. I contacted the hotel requesting an exception to refund the stay for 2 rooms considering the unexpected circumstances. The hotel said they would call me back but I never heard from them. No consideration was given. We actually had to return to Athens and had they been more accommodating, I would have booked at this hotel but the poor service left a bad taste in my mouth.

I stayed at the loft and it’s smaller than it appeared and the sofa bed was really uncomfortable. But the staff were very nice and accommodating, they resolved our issues right away. The location is great, walking distance from the market, Acropolis and lots of food. There’s even a cafe steps away from the hotel. Overall, I had a good experience and would book again!
