I stayed at the hotel for 4 nights and had a mixed experience. The rooms were small and simply furnished, overlooking a main route that was busy with morning commuters. However, they were spacious enough for our stay, and the bed, toilet, and shower were satisfactory.

The hotel is situated in a very convenient location next to the metro, making it easy and safe to explore Athens. The rooms, although on the smaller side with dated decor, were adequate for a short stay. The staff were friendly and helpful, despite a mix-up with cleaning schedules. The dining options were tasty, but there is room for improvement, and the facilities offered were sufficient for a comfortable stay.

My stay at the Apollo for two nights in a triple room had its ups and downs. The hotel's central stairwell location led to noise throughout the building, waking me up several times during the stay. However, the friendly and helpful service made me feel at home, and the hotel's excellent location close to the metro station was very convenient.

Apollo Hotel may not be the newest or most modern, but it is clean and a decent choice. The rooms look a bit old and worn, and facing the street can be noisy, but they are satisfactory. The service was kind and helpful, making me feel welcome and supported throughout my stay. The location is convenient, just a short distance from key attractions and transportation hubs. The dining options were adequate but left room for improvement. Overall, a budget-friendly option with some drawbacks but also positives.

I found the hotel to be in a good location close to the metro, making it convenient for getting around the city. The service was decent, and the room was clean and comfortable. However, the surrounding area lacked appealing dining options, and the facilities were just average. The value for money was reasonable considering the location and service.

The hotel offers a decent stay with a nice view of the Acropolis from the top floor rooms. The breakfast is basic but typical of continental offerings in other countries. The staff is exceptionally helpful and friendly, with Efi standing out for her warm hospitality. The location is central, albeit surrounded by graffiti and near an abandoned building, yet conveniently situated for accessing transportation options.

The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms, and the staff is exceptionally friendly. However, the rooms can be small and noisy when facing the street. The location is ideal for exploring Athens, being very close to transportation options. The dining experience is quite good, although it may not suit British tastes due to the creamy milk. Overall, a value-for-money choice for a convenient stay.

The service was efficient and helpful, except for a particular staff member. The location was convenient, although safety could be a concern in the area.
