Felt safe and was a nice stay at this location. Considering I stayer at another location prior to this property, I would recommend this one due to its location to the rail system. Friendly staff and a nice experience. Good place for people who enjoy travelling and seeing things by foot. more

Hi we have just come back from 5 nights here before travelling on to Rhodes. The Taxi driver said it was a good little hotel, it was 38 euro and we gave him 50 as we had no change and he drove off - I suppose we should have expected it!. We arrived about 10.15pm but were still able to... more

The rooms were very high priced compared to the quality of the rooms. The size of the room was very small and the bathroom was minuscule. Water always spilled over from the bathroom to the room while taking a shower. Though the website says they provide WiFi, you actually have to buy cards at very high prices ( 5euros for... more

About the only good thing about this hotel is the proximity to a metro station, 1 stop from Sintagma and 2 from Acropolis. Taxies are also available next to metro, which was handy for early morning trip to the airport (35e, metro starts at 5am). Staff was actually pretty helpful and friendly. Construction still going on, and we asked for... more

Quiet and good old fashion hotel with reasonably price! It`s just near everything in Αθήνα. Staff was very kind and attentive. Clean and ideal for peoples that want to go sight-seeing in a city. After restoration it will be a pleasure to stay there for everyone who don`t expect luxury. more

This hotel was almost everything it's web site promised. It is an un-fancy, quiet hotel that is reasonably priced. The rooms are very simple, but very clean. It is just off the beaten path, but near enough to the historical sites via a short subway ride (2 blocks from the Metaxourgio subway station which is only 3 subway stops from... more

This was by far one of the worst hotel I have ever stayed in; right from the rude receptionist to the lack of amenties. The refrigerator was broken. No one bothered to fix it when we complained. The beds were lumpy and the bedsheets were unclean and smelly. The staff were most reluctant to resolve any issues we had with... more

The hotel is in one of the roughest places I have ever been to, and I didn't feel safe walking around in the daytime, let alone in the evening. The hotel was in a nice old building but pretty basic & although you could see it was refurbished for the Olympics, they haven't bothered to maintain the decor since. You... more

Just returned from staying in the Rio for 4 nights. The room was clean and comfortable, nothing fancy but I wasn't looking for luxury. The breakfast was OK and the people friendly and helpful. Good value for the money. The only complaint was the WiFi access. Hotel wanted 5 Euros for a 1 hour usage card that ended up not... more

It was simple and frill-free but absolutely fine for our purposes. If you want pampering this isn't your place, but if you want just somewhere to sleep (in a comfy bed) in good reach of the centre then this is ideal. The only thing I would say is breakfast isn't up to much more
