Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests appreciate the comfortable beds and well-equipped kitchenette, with a shared laundry available.

good location comfortable apartment needed equipment shared laundry

I found the location good, with restaurants, pharmacies, and shops nearby. Historical areas were accessible by bus or taxi. The apartment was comfortable. it had everything needed. A shared laundry was available.

The number of blankets matched beds. One double bed meant one blanket.

separate blanket flight cancellation

The apartment had a luxurious feel and was a good size. The location was great.

I asked for two separate blankets when I booked the Family Apartment. I learned the number of blankets equals the number of beds. One double bed meant only one blanket. Wizzair canceled my flight six hours before takeoff! The hotel refused a refund and claimed I used the room I booked.

Excellent spot for exploring

convenient location pizza restaurant gyros restaurant rooftop balcony

I found the location very convenient. The National Library is just 400 metres away and it near the bus stop. A pizza restaurant and a gyros restaurant were close, around 50 metres and a local supermarket only 200 metres from the building. The rooftop balcony had good views of Mount Lycabettus and the Acropolis so i enjoyed it.

the number of blankets is equal to the number of beds. this makes it more difficult for couples that dont like sharing a blanket.

Rooms

The family apartment featured two distinct bedrooms and it also featured a modern interior. A functional kitchen included a stove, an oven, and it had a washing machine, so i could do the laundry. A tv was in each room.

Location

10/10

Located centrally, many restaurants and shops are near to the hotel. A pizzeria operates on the ground floor, so you can get breakfast easy. The main area with restaurants and bars is a short walk, about 15 minutes away.

Service

Staff was very helpful when i contacted them. They responded quickly via whatsapp. I was able to store luggage in the basement for a later flight, they were very helpful. Access to the hotel was easy with a code.
