It's suitable for youths that travel to Athens to live the night life of Greece. It's worm and cozy place for two people; maybe couple. It's a club underneath that has great music, the problem is that if you work you can't be on the first two floors because you need to be fresh in the morning. They have coffee machine and tea and that is excellent.
I wanted a door that blocks the water on the shower because the water goes everywhere when you take one. I believe a window net and some citronella candles, could be a wonderful investment; at least in one of the windows because of the mosquitos problem in Athens Center.

The room was nice and the location very convenient, really close to the city centre and in a live area.
Unfortunately, the bar downstairs was really loud (everyday and till early in the morning) and even when windows were closed you could hear the noise. Also, there were many mosquitoes in the room, so that wasn’t really pleasant.

Muito perto do centro, cerca de 20 minutos a pé.
Do hotel não podemos falar mal, do que nos podemos queixar, é da localização.
Na mesma rua do Hotel, estão alguns bares/discotecas que infelizmente devem ser para pessoas com problemas auditivos, por isso os estabelecimentos fazem questão que toda a rua e arredores consigam ouvir a sua música, que no caso do bar do outro lado da rua é algo em torno de tecno/ metal.
O pior mesmo foi o facto de os estabelecimentos estarem abertos até as 4.00 da manhã, o que fazia com que existisse barulho até cerca das 5.00 da manhã.
Caricato é o facto de o hotel disponibilizar tampões para os ouvidos (o que de nada servia, pois, uma vez que o som era relativamente baixo para os tampões, ouvia-se tudo na mesma).
Atenas faz lembrar os subúrbios de Nova Iorque, com as paredes todas grafitadas em grande parte das várias partes da cidade que visitamos.
Muita polícia de choque em vários pontos da cidade, curiosamente não nos sentimos num local inseguro ou problemático.

The location was great! Could walk to the Acropolis and the restaurant right outside the hotel is very good.
There were some small ants and bugs in our room.

The two staff at reception Anthony and Aspa were great and very helpful. The bed was comfortable.
Firstly when I walked into the bedroom it smelled and seemed stuffy. I notified the receptionist and she came to spray the room which helped. I booked a superior room but honestly there was nothing superior about it the room was very bog standard.
My worst experience was when I asked for an iron. Believe it or not they said the iron was in for repair and so they didn't have an iron. I was shocked how they only have one iron in the entire hotel? The receptionist Anthony was very helpful he spoke to the management but they refused to buy a replacement and basically told me to use an outside dry cleaning service, I was mortified with the management's attitude. This incident really spoiled my mood I was there for my birthday weekend so really dampened things and I didn't think the hotel's response was acceptable. Even when I suggested why can't the hotel just buy a new iron surely it's not going to cost even €30 but still they refused. Thankfully Antony sorted this issue and bought a new iron.
Like most have mentioned the noise from the bars is loud and honestly if you're a light sleeper definitely do not book this hotel....the windows are not sound proof!
I know this can be important.....there are no mirrors in the bedroom only in the bathroom. You'd expect at least one long mirror in the bedroom!
The area isn't great and does seem unsafe although I was fine throughout my 4 nights stay. The hotel is 20 mins walking from the main stops and the metro is only 4 mins walk so that was useful.
In previous reviews I'm sure I read positive reviews about the breakfast but it's not included and it's only continental. Based on the rest of the hotel I didn't even bother requesting this. So personally I can't comment but I wouldn't expect much to be honest!
Apart from the receptionists Anthony and Aspa there really isn't anything great about this hotel. I mean I wouldn't even call it a hotel!

The interior and the design.
The unbearable NOISE!
All night!
There is 3 bar on the small street, 3 meters from the Hotel.
That was one of the most horrible night in our life!
They stole one night from our live!
They not mentioned when we booked, and when we arrived to the hotel that is a really noisy room. Basically, All of the street view room!
There is no words on the website of the hotel.
After a long discussion with Booking.com, (at 3 o'clock in the night ) we got an another room on the 5th floor, but there we heard too the sound the clubs, Terrible techno/rock and roll/ and latin music all at once!!
It was a torture!
Inhumanity theese room to let!
Honestly i would it, the owner spend a night at the room 103!
NEVER AGAIN.

Great little modern space with updated facilities
They need to build a reception

It was clean and staff were great.
Breakfast was served in the room and not an area to sit down like a normal hotel. There wasn’t a reception post 10pm and we had to use a code to get in. At night the area is very dark so didn’t feel secure at all.

This was exactly what I needed. After the end of a group tour we were booked into a nearby hostel with non aircon. I booked a night at Athens Lights at 3:30am when I couldn't sleep. The staff were so friendly and helpful, they got my room ready earlier than check in so I could rest.
The room itself was great, excellent bed, shower and aircon! There was a coffee machine and water too. I paid €5 for breakfast which was large and excellent.
The hotel is a 20-25 minute walk from the main centre depending on where you are going to. And it is easy enough to hop on the metro if you don't want to walk.
Thanks for making sure the final part of my trip ended well after a disastrous start!

Staff was very welcoming, helpful and friendly. Great shower and comfortable beds. Right in the city center. About 10 minutes walk to Omonia metro station. Rooms are cleaned daily. Very comfortable bed.
The neighborhood can get quite gritty at night. There are 2 cafés right in front of the hotel that plays REALLY LOUD music at night. We had a room with street view balcony and couldn't sleep because of the noise coming from the 2 bars. Such a pity cause the hotel itself is really good.

Everything great
But the noise from the street - 😐

Very cosy hotel, the rooms are very clean and comfortable. Located in a vivid area of Athens, with small streets full of restaurants and night life. The food offered by the hotel is also good. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The city center and all the touristic attractions are at a 20 min walking distance.
If there is one improvement that I might suggest in the listing, is that there is only one room with a terrace in the hotel and you might be dissapointed if you get a room that has none.

Poor reception, far from sign of "hotel"

Good location, clean and comfortable room. Some noise from the street below but once the windows are closed there is good insulation.
