Minoa Hotel

"Stayed here for 5 nights with family of 4 including 2 children. The hotel is well priced and is clean and tidy. The staff are very friendly and helpful and speak English. The hotel is located a 5 minutes walk from the Metaxourghio metro station which will get you to the acropolis in 20 minutes, and allows easy access to all parts of central Athens. There is a small cafe that you can access through the lobby that serves pastries and sandwiches as well as coffee and beer. We had breakfast there most days of our stay.\n\nThe room was large with a huge master bed bigger than a king-size and two single beds for the kids. There was a small fridge in the room, air conditioning and a TV. The bathroom had a toilet, sink and shower.\n\nThe decor was a bit dated and the room could do with a refresh. The bed broke on our first night but the staff came out and fixed it the next morning (a side bracket had come loose). The shower head in the shower didn't fit in the mount very well so it was precariously balanced or you just had to hold the head. The toilet seat was loose and wobbled a bit when sat on. The biggest problem we had with the room was the outside noise. Our room was on the sixth floor and even with the window closed you could hear traffic and street noise.\n\nThe other downside is the surrounding area is very rough. The walk to the metro is ok but go the opposite direction towards Omonia and there are lots of homeless people and drug addicts right on the street within about 200-300m of the hotel. We didn't have any incidents but it was very uncomfortable walking past them.\n\nIt is a real shame as otherwise for the price we paid (€70 a night) and given the central location this hotel is good value."

"Bit rough around the edges but for the price point, location and service it’s incredible. Room are super clean and usable, gets the GBL league on the TV which was pretty fun to watch. Convenient cafe attached with a decent offering, room service available from 7am-11pm also but didn’t use it! Fantastic stay"

"Good experience. At the reception a man who works there for 22 years old is very nice. To keep in count, the cleaner of the room took a hand soup that wasn't emty at all, I didn't mind to keep using it. Nice decoration. Near the streets are people not very cute."
