Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Rooms are basic and dated — Don't expect frills: simple decor, older furniture, and limited amenities. Comfort score is low, and some guests found the rooms tired.
- No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, you'll need to look elsewhere – the hotel has a strict no-pets policy.
- Street noise possible — Located on a central street near Omonia Square, some rooms may pick up city noise, though soundproofing is offered.
- Limited dining options — Breakfast is available but the dining rating is low, suggesting the food is basic or not a highlight.
