Liked: Cleanliness
room was good considering the cheap price and the location is very central. there was air conditioning and clean towels and sheets. would recommend for people who need to stay shortly in a cenrtral location for a cheap price. the appartment´s windows dont get any sun since they face walls so you need to have lights on at all times. also its a bit noisy at night for a light sleeper.

This property was very clean and spacious. It was quiet. It is very close to Syntagma Square and perfect if you need to catch an early bus to the airport. It is close to great dining, museums, and other attractions.

This hotel was conveniently located for the night I stayed in Athens but the room was kind of run down and dirty. Didn’t really look like the photos online. It’s fine for a quick stay but I would not stay for multiple days.

The staff was friendly, the location is great, but the condition of the room was just okay. The building didn’t feel super secure to me as a solo female and I had an issue with a couple of bugs. It’s okay for the price because the location is very convenient.

I had a fantastic experience at this hotel. The location is absolutely perfect—just a short walk from local markets, great restaurants, and historic landmarks. It’s ideal for anyone wanting to explore the city on foot. The staff were incredibly helpful and kind, always ready to assist with anything I needed. Their hospitality really made a difference in my stay. For the price, it’s definitely worth it. You get great value without compromising on comfort or convenience. I’ll absolutely be booking here again on my next visit!

Great overall. Perfect location. Clean amd comfortable. Only complaint is we only got one set of keys and we needed an exterior key in addition to our room key. Also, our room only locked with the key on the inside.

Location was amazing! So close to shops and fantastic food and the acropolis. So ideal for walking. AC worked great and rooms were huge and very clean. We needed to store luggage for a few hours before boarding our cruise ship and they worked it out even though their office wasn’t open yet. Thanks for making sure everything worked out so well!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I stayed in 2 different apartments on a recent trip to Greece. Both were clean, comfortable and well furnished though not luxurious. Security is good. The location is great, five minutes from Syntagma Square and close to the ancient centre. The neighbourhood immediately around the building doe not look attractive, especially at night, but I think is in fact reasonably safe. The "kitchenettes" do vary--one had fridge, kettle, coffee maker, 2 ring cooker top and sink; the other had neither sink nor cooker.
