I stayed on this hotel in January 2008. The building seemed to be recently renovated and all utilities were working properly and in good condition. Rooms are not small and the cleaness was perfect. The staff was very sympathetic, helpful and gave us many tips about the city.
The only problem of this hotel is its surroundings. As some others reviewers observed, at night you can see some prostitutes on nearby streets. Additionally, I have seen some people using drugs (heavy drugs) on the steps of the City Hall (right in front of the hotel) and dealer wondering around there. I didn't feel threghten at any time, but I always avoided to look to the sides and rush up a little when walking throught that area.

We stayed in this hotel for three nights. The staff were always friendly and upon arrival the guy on reception supplied us with a handy pocket size map, and spends a couple of minutes talking us through some of the key things we could do and see during our stay.

The location was great, with everything within easy walking distance – the only time we had to use the metro was to get to the airport. The area around the hotel was buzzing with activity during the day and felt perfectly safe day and night. The nearby restaurants and bars in Psirri and Monastikaki offer some fantastic local cuisine at great prices.

The room was clean and supplied with fresh towels daily. Breakfast was free, if a bit basic (cereal, bread, ham, cheese, jams and cake). Overall I’d recommend the hotel and happily stay there again.

Stayed here on January 2008.
it was the best budget Hotel we stayed during our trip.
Located into the city centre so we walked to all the attractions.
(Museum Plaka Acropolis) we used the metro only from/to airport . For the money we gave this hotel was great,
the staff were friendly and helpful giving us many information, Breakfast was free of charge, with cereals, bread, cheese, ham, marmalade, honey, chocolate etc.
Free internet. The room was clean and warm, towels replaced daily. It is not a 5 star hotel, but it does the job very well.
Overall highly recommended, to any one, who want a hotel room into the city centre to be cleaned and with friendly staff not expensive compare to other Hotels at the same category.
definitely I would stay here again.

We (two couples) stayed here over the New Year holiday, hoping for a nice break after Christmas with a bit of festivity on New Year's Eve. Not disappointed by either Athens or the hotel. Economy easy to find thanks to the instructions emailed by the hotel at the time of booking. Area more respectable than expected given some previous reviews; hotel almost opposite the rear of City Hall fronting Kotzia Square, where a huge stage was set up for live music on New Year's Eve (finished and all quiet again by 2am), and where the Mayor rang in the New Year marked by a great firework display in the Square. Very nice brasserie just along the road from the hotel (Hell's Kitchen), unfortunately closed in the evenings. Ommonia Square and Monasteraki metro stations both a few minutes walk along the main road, Plaka and other sights conveniently close. Yes, a 'sex cinema' almost opposite, but we never saw any clients, nor any other signs of the sex industry or drug dealing. The hotel was immaculately clean, towels replaced daily, and the staff were without exception friendly and helpful. Two lifts, easy to negotiate corridors with cases. Breakfast fine (cereals, bread, cheese, ham etc) and plenty of it. When we checked out we were offered a taxi booking to the airport, we had already bought metro tickets so the desk clerk gave us train times and advice on avoiding crowds. Extremely good value for money (we booked through an online agency in July, weren't charged anything until checkout). Overall highly recommended.
