Stayed here for two nights. Nothing to criticize. I’ll note that while the breakfast was OK, the breakfast room is a bit small and you can be very close to your neighbor’s table. If you like privacy, eat early when its not busy.||The location was good for me as I am a walker, and walking from the property to Athen’s main sites was very doable for me (noting that this stay was in November).||My goal for the trip was to use public transportation as much as possible. I took the Metro from the airport to the Ambelokipi station. No transfers involved. But it is a bit of a walk with luggage as the sidewalks are a bit narrow and uneven. If I did it again, I’d go to the Music Hall station, a bit more of a walk, but all of the sidewalks are wide and easily manageable.|

Overall good. Clean and spacious rooms (but rooms, especially in bathroom area should be renovated). What a pity the moquette in the aisles. Very good service. Breakfast quite poor. Right if price is right.
