It was clean, convenient to downtown and had a good breakfast. Only negative was the homeless guy hanging out in the lobby watching football most of the night. He made my family a little uncomfortable.

I was pleasantly surprised by the condition of the rooms; they were clean, and the air conditioning was running at full capacity—something rare in many hotels these days. There was ample parking for guests, and the breakfast offered a wide variety of well-prepared options.

Came in for the Athens Film Festival. It was centrally located to all kinds of great bars, restaurants and venues. A little aggravated that they charged for parking... there were lots of spaces and we put a notice on our dashboard, so they knew we were guests. The rooms were clean, great AC and showers... Was very quiet. Excellent coffee available throughout, as well. I'd definitely stay there again if/when I'm back in Athens.
