Acceptable Stay Near the Acropolis

calm neighborhood great location old furniture dirty curtains

The location is its strong suit. It is near the Plaka district. The calm neighborhood. I met the hotel owner who offered useful advice.

The air conditioner did not have a thermostat. The curtains needed a wash. I think the furniture was old.

missing thermostat old furniture

I found a couple of issues . The air conditioning lacked a thermostat, so regulating the temperature was not possible. The curtains also seemed like they needed a good wash (I almost felt disgusted when touching them). The furniture looked old and worn, which gave the room an unappealing aspect.
