The metro station access is very convenient. I loved that many of the city's highlights were within a short walk.
The music from the bar on the top floor was loud late at night. It bothered me in my suite.

Decent Experience Near Monastiraki Square

convenient locationfriendly staffgreat servicestrange wiringlack of careinconvenient situation
The hotel is located near a metro stop. It is convenient to restaurants and attractions. The staff members were friendly. The front desk attendant provided great service.
The room had strange wiring. I could not turn the lights off. I had to turn off the power. This also turned off the air conditioning.

The location is very central. Plenty of shops and restaurants are easily accessible. The room included a coffee machine for Nespresso and a kettle. The fridge and safety box are a nice addition. Breakfast is served on the rooftop with a view. It is very good. The view includes the Acropolis.
The wiring was strange. It was so strange that I couldn't turn the lights out when I wanted to sleep.
