The location is on a very narrow street such that a regular Athens taxi will not be able to access the front of the property. The registration desk is in one building and the rooms are in another. There are a lot of steps up to the room. The room is small and the only way out of the bed is from the foot. The floating shelf fell on me while I was asleep. It was on the wall to the right of the bed. The bed is hard and uncomfortable. The bathroom has a very complex shower with body jets and a waterfall. The stall is a little small for an a complex aperatus like that. Breakfast is in the basement. It’s a wide selection of options. Including hot food. Where it gets dicey is checking out. I had a tour guide meet me at the hotel with a car. I was about to bring my bags to the car when I was stopped by the proprietor’s wife. Who began to berate me to pay my bill. Mind you, on check in I gave my card and passport information. And prior to arrival the same. She insisted on holding my bag before placing it in the vehicle. So that I could go check out. I explained the bags are going in the vehicle and I will walk to reception to check out. She got nastier. If it weren’t a series of steps to carry my bags back to reception I would have. But my bags were heavy and navigating the stairs would be problematic. I went to registration and checked out with the nicer of the duo who seem to...
Read moreWe were stranded by EasyJet cancellations and had to get out of our other hotel as fully booked. We wanted to stay in Psiri - which is fab - and this place had a cancellation so wee could get in, luckily. The room was large and the air conditioning was great. There was a tv so we could get international news. The shower was large and fancy - maybe a bit too fancy but I am not complaining. ||They have stopped doing breakfasts in the room and you go down steep staircase to an underground room. All that is fine as long as you are surefooted - no handrail. The breakfast was not a buffet so you had to order and though the eggs were good, the processed cheese and ham weren't great. It was only two days since they opened this breakfast place so perhaps they will refine it and get better. With the plethora of good food in the area and amazing bakeries, it would not be hard.||There was also a metal staircase to our room - no lift - and though the lovely man at reception took our bags up, you should know that if you are less than agile and don't want to carry your cases up a staircase, you might want to be careful which room you book.We looked out onto a concrete wall which is not the end of the world if you just want to use your room to sleep but it did feel a bit like a cave.||The location though is fantastic and the staff, l(ike all or least the vast majority of Greeks you will meet)...
Read moreI’m not sure why there are bad reviews for this place .|The room ( a double room with a mezzanine floor ) was very comfortable and very clean .|The guys on the front desk were pleasant and helpful with local knowledge.|We didn’t have breakfast so I can’t review that aspect.|The stairs up to the second floor could be tricky if you’re not steady on your feet but were fine for our 22 year old son |The shower was amazing!!|There is a little kitchen if you wish to cook ( although no need as there is so many places to eat around you )|The only downside was it was a little noisy ( you could hear people walking down the stairs in other rooms ) but nothing more than a couple of times !!|Considering it’s so close to the nightlife out side you couldn’t hear any outside noise from the street .|Its situated very close to walk to the acropolis and all the surrounding areas |Our taxi had no problem taking us right to the front door |I would...
