mixed feelings about the stay

uncomfortable bathroom high humidity

the location was convenient to see plaka and the acropolis, so that was something.

the bathroom was the most uncomfortable. there was nothing to put my shampoo or shower gel and it was super small. if i didn't leave the door open, it had too much humidity, i hated that.

central stay

helpful staff ideal location clear view

George was friendly and very helpful . he provided local tips and assisted with my boarding passes. the location is ideal, with easy access to the plaka area. Everything was quite close. the rooftop terrace offered clear views of the acropolis, especially lovely at night.

the bathroom lacked adequate ventilation and showed signs of rust in the shower. i also missed a full-length mirror within the room.

small shower improper door

The shower was not good. It was nearly impossible to shower without the shower curtain sticking to me. It was just too small (I really think a shower cabin with proper dimensions could fix this). The bathroom door was not a proper door either.
