The hotel was clean and well maintained. It was in a very convenient location. Our room was spacious. The staff were friendly. The breakfast was also very good. I would recommend staying here. It is difficult to find street parking but that is true for most all the Plaka area. There are a couple garage options nearby.

This was easily one of the cleanest rooms I have ever stayed in. The hotel is spotless from top to bottom. The location is quite central, which is great. However, be careful with the parking lots nearby as they close early. I managed to convince an attendant by leaving my keys and agreeing to pick up the car the next day. The hotel staff was incredibly polite and genuine. I will definitely choose this place again for my next trip.

The hotel rooms were modern and had everything we needed. Staff members were quite helpful with information. Only drawback was that the rooms are tiny. Very little space for opening luggage.
