The hotel is old but very clean, with nice staff. The area is a regular downtown, big city area, so not very touristy but fine otherwise. There are several cafes/bakeries around to buy a cheap breakfast plus a tasty gyro place very close by. Subway is one block away as well, but it's walkable to the Parthenon (30 min)

The Team were lovely, very friendly and welcoming. The Hotel itself is centrally located and easy to get to anywhere from there It is quaint but probably needs a lock of paint to modernise the hotel as the decor is a bit dated. Front Street rooms can be noisy, but that’s more of an Athens traffic problem than a Hotel problem

It was a good location and close walking distance to all the tourist attractions. Staff was friendly and check in and out was quick. When I booked this hotel the pictures online look more luxurious than it was. The bed had lost its cushioning and I would feel the springs as I slept.

For the price you pay please don’t expect a 5star facilities. Unfortunately place is an old building. Smells of smoke as soon as you walk out in the hallway. The bed is not so comfortable. It’s a 2single bed put together. Shower is okay. Clean but only curtains to separate it from the toilet. Location is good for public transport. And grabbing breakfast from neighbouring shops is not a hustle. Overall if you are only going to sleep in it’s a good location. Beware don’t be too late out as Omonia looks a bit rough place to be roaming around at late nights.

Decent stay in Athens …

Service was great, staff were very friendly and helpful in every way. This is not a five star hotel so you get what you pay for, we just needed a place to sleep and were quite happy, nothing to complain about. It's located right near Omonia Square where you will find shopping and restaurants. Just a few minutes walk to the Central Market. The walk to Syntagma square is only about 15 mins but it will take much longer because of all the shops you'll find along the way. Will definitely stay here again when I return.

Cheap and OK

You got what you pay for.. A cheap hotel and if you only need a place with a bed and bathroom (that was clean!) for one night, this is good enough.. But don’t expect this to be a luxury place..
