The hotel is conveniently located in the vibrant center of Plaka, making it easy to explore the city's major attractions by foot. The rooms are on the smaller side, with views of neighboring buildings, but the friendly service and unbeatable location make up for it. The breakfast may leave something to be desired, but the overall value for money is decent.

The hotel is ideally situated, a stone's throw away from Syntagma Square. The rooms lacked central heating, making my January stay uncomfortable despite the balcony offering a view of the Parthenon. The proximity to the stairs was convenient, but facing neighboring buildings with balconies posed a privacy concern.

Upon arrival, our room looked onto a high wall on the left and the balcony of a neighboring flat on the right. The room was small and dark, too small, dirty, and without a view. The hotel service was quite helpful and kind overall, except for one older lady. The location was at the city center, offering great views of the Acropolis, but seemed a bit expensive. The dining was too expensive for what you get. The facilities were fine.

Although the rooms were very narrow and the bathroom small, they were clean and modern. The hotel did not match the pictures on the website, but the staff offered to move me to another room in the morning. The service was polite and friendly, with a bonus of a lovely coffee spot on the roof overlooking the Acropolis. The location is a standout feature, conveniently situated in the Plaka area close to major city attractions. The dining experience had some shortcomings in terms of value for money, with a preference for an alternative cafe nearby. Overall, the hotel offers a good value for money stay with some minor room issues to consider.

The hotel sits in a perfect location on a quiet side street, with a small, family-style restaurant directly across, making it ideal for exploring various attractions. The rooms were clean and comfortable, offering a cozy stay, although the views faced neighboring buildings. The service was welcoming and helpful, ensuring a pleasant experience. The dining experience was good value for money, providing a hearty breakfast option. However, the noise from a nearby taverna till midnight was a slight drawback.

The hotel's location is one of its best assets, close to the city's historical attractions while offering a cozy and comfy stay. However, the room size may feel a bit cramped, especially in the bathroom. The dining experience, albeit available at an extra charge, may not fully meet the expectations of an American breakfast.
