    We really enjoyed our stay here. All of the guys on Reception are lovely, they're so helpful and offer you a drink or advice every time you come or go. The room was a decent size. The shower does flood the bathroom floor a bit, but it didn't really bother us. We never felt unsafe when walking around the neighbourhood.

    Good location in a lively neighborhood full of bars and cafes, about 30mn+ walk to the plaka area/acropolis; nice room like in the pictures, but what we appreciated the most was the staff at the reception that was so kind!

    The location was amazing. The neighborhood is full of great little cafes, bars, and restaurants. It felt very safe to walk around and explore. Lots of younger people due to the university students living in the area. You get a great vibe for Athens and the Greek people. The staff are incredible. Will welcome you every time you come into the building and go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. The room we had was very spacious and clean. The bed was the most comfortable we had the whole month we were traveling. Would 100% stay here next time.

    WOW!!! If you want to get to know Athens and the Athenians, not tourist "postcards", this hotel is for you. It is very close to two hills with a beautiful view. We always walked to the center so as not to miss any of the unexpected attractions. The Exarcheia district itself is wonderful and unique (you will appreciate it especially if you like the atmosphere of Camden Town in London, the charming streets of Porto or the artistic district of Copenhagen). It is safe and the locals are very nice. There are as many bookstores as cafes, restaurants and artistic graffiti on the walls (on one of them there is an inscription: Do not take photos, Exarcheia is not a museum). The hotel staff are masterful at being nice and helpful. All the positive comments we read before our arrival were confirmed. The room has everything you need, always clean, bathroom, fridge, air conditioning, and at the reception you can always get water, coffee, Coke and a friendly smile.

    The staff was simply amazing. They managed to arrange parking for our 'tiny' van despite the narrow streets being packed with cars. Finding a massage for one of our friends was also not a problem. Yes, the hotel is situated in the real Athens, full of a typical vibe, and good restaurants are nearby.

    Everything was sparkling clean and the overall service was awesome! The employees kept checking on us so we have all we needed. In particular, the receptionist, Kourosh made us really feel at home. I talked to the hotel owner, Aristo and I found him an extraordinary person with so much passionate about his bussiness. He offered me free local drinks among which I loved the Mastic.

    The Jacuzzi was in not very nice condition and definitely needs repairs and renovation. Avoid this room if you’re only coming for the Jacuzzi.

    Very cool surrounding area if you like alternative vibes. The room itself was very good with a nice balcony. The friendliness of the person has to be highlighted ! We felt really welcome!

    The price was bit expensive compared to what we got but I assume it’s because we booked it few hours before arriving and on Saturday.

    The people who work there are the nicest people ever. They got us in a surprised check in in the middle of the night and helped us with everything.

    The only complaint is the shower floods the bathroom. This is by design so not sure how it could be fixed. It wasn’t enough to bother me that much. I will still book this place again.

    The staff was amazing. It was in walking distance for us to everyplace (we like to walk)
