“I found this a family-run hotel in an amazing location, on the edge of the Plaka district, which places you within easy reach of the Acropolis and Monastiriki; rooms with Acropolis views and balconies make it worth the stay. While furnishings are basic and the lift is tiny, the rooftop breakfast terrace and friendly staff provide a genuine Athenian experience; it's a fine base for exploring.”

I found the location convenient, within easy walking distance of many key attractions. The air conditioning worked efficiently, a VERY important feature. The staff helped me arrange an airport transfer. It was smooth and stress-free.
The noise was quite disruptive. The nearby church bells rang frequently, even late at night, so sleep was difficult at times.
