The bed mattresses were terrible. I woke with back pain every morning. it was uncomfortable, and i hardly slept the last night. this is really a deal breaker. I will look elsewhere next time.

Acceptable Hotel Stay
central location decent breakfast old furniture small elevator
The hotel's location is convenient for visiting the main attractions. I could easily reach the Greek Parliament and the Plaka district. The breakfast was decent.
The furniture in the room seemed old. I think the bed needed to be updated as it was not comfortable. The elevator felt small, barely fitting one person with luggage.
