Not as advertised and inaccessible
When arriving, the hotel was completely inaccessible from the street and appeared closed. When calling to cancel, I was told to go thru the next door gas station parking lot. They were able to email in advance about a $10 parking fee, but not able to email about the closed roads and parking not, nor was there any signage to help.
The hotel was also significantly more run down than shown in the photos.

This hotel is solid and convenient and not as outrageously priced as some hotels on high-demand weekends in Athens. It’s not at all remarkable but not bad either.
