This is not glamorous accommodation. If you want your own bathroom and can't deal with any shabbiness, then this is not for you. For me, it was a perfect choice and I really enjoyed my stay in Athens. Speaking with Panagiota helped me to better understand what is happening in her world. The location is perfect - I took a map but really didn't need it to go for a walk to Acropolis. This is an interesting and happening part of town - I really enjoyed walking around in the evening and experiencing all the buskers. I was by myself, but it would be perfect for a group of friends - especially to stay longer, do some hipster up cycling activities, and spend some time soaking in a few drinks upstairs on the terrace.
Some reviews say it is noisy - all of Athens is probably noisy. Actually the rooms back on to a street with no cars so it is only noise of other people out on the street, so the noise was like a neighbour having a party, but it was all quiet after the 'party' ended.
