“From what I've gathered, this hotel occupies a renovated historic building in central Athens, placing guests within easy reach of major landmarks. I noticed some past guests mentioned issues with room maintenance and security that would concern me, yet the location and building's architectural character still stand out. Overall, while the location is excellent and the staff is lovely, based on what I read I would consider the trade-offs carefully.”
