I can’t give you any information about the parking because we did not rent a vehicle.The things to know about this hotel are as follows… This hotel is located one stop from Monastiraki train station , eight stops from Piraeus Port, and the last stop is at the airport. From Monastiraki you can walk to majority of the sites in Athens. You can see the Acropolis from the top of the hotel rooftop. The beds were very comfortable and the room was clean. The staff were very helpful. In all fairness, My Plate was the only restaurant we tried in the neighborhood and we ate there most nights. The food is good, inexpensive, and the staff were very friendly.

This property, even though small, was well suited for two people. We had the Jr Suite with a balcony. The views were great from our. Also y but even better from the rooftop. The hotel is a small boutique hotel. The desk staff were very helpful and kind. The property was clean and very modern. The kitchenette was well stocked with cooking utensils and there is a small frig. No microwave but a hot plate which was usual to heat things up. The elevator is like a small closet. My husband and I could not both fit with our luggage so we had to make multiple trips. There are many restaurants within walking distance and the subway/train was a short walk from the hotel. The only complaint is the rooftop bar adjacent to the hotel. The hotel does supply ear plugs but they were no match for the extra loud music that played until 4am on a Friday night.

Disappointed about check in. Details of how to check in after reception closed was not shared for my arrival. I did share with the hotel before I arrived that I had a late flight and would be arriving late. However, the hotel did not message me with how to access the property before I arrived so I was left standing outside and had to ring the hotel. This wouldn’t normally be a problem in my own com punter but data roaming charges and no battery on my phone made it all quite stressful
