Good value for the price. Room surprisingly big, on same street as several much more expensive hotels, staff very accommodating. You can request higher floor and room facing back to avoid traffic noise, which isn't that bad anyway. Staff couldn't be more helpful.

Honest & quick review
First, please understand that this is a 3 Star hotel. After saying that.. They are proud of who they are, great customer service EVEN if they look like they have never slept, great cleaning products. Room: normal ( I am glad that I was not in a wood floor and not a carpet one) Would I recommended it? YES! Nice, good and cheap! Save your money and used it in local cuisine =] Note: if you didn't included breakfast, there is a nice coffeeshop called Bread Factory in less that 3 min walking, is great and cheap.

First is the wrong picture on the web side. There is no pool as it is advertised. Second the bed is so hard you feel you sleep on the floor. Overall it's ok. I would not recommend it.

Overall it was a decent stay. The room was very clean and the spacious. The reception staff super friendly and helpful. I didn't have the chance to try their breakfast as my schedule was so full. No hesitation in recommending this hotel for overnight or longer stays

Budget hotel with excellent staff
My experience at Hotel Minoa was excellent. The staff were the absolute highlight - always friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. They provided me with information on where to go in Athens, and the best way to make a day trip out to Cape Sounion using the public bus (I would very much recommend this). The room itself was neat and clean, with very fast WIFI, good air-con, a fridge, and a TV. There was a small cafe attached to the hotel that did excellent coffee and spinach pastries. The local area had a lot of good restaurants, some grocery stores, a market (on certain days of the week) and the hotel itself was a 2 minute walk from Metaxourgheio metro station (although it was only a 25 minute walk into the centre). As a solo female traveller I felt very safe in this hotel, however it is quite near Omonia Square, which I would not recommend walking in at night alone, as it can be dangerous. I spent a week at Hotel Minoa, and had a fantastic time. It was the perfect base from which to explore Athens on a budget. I cannot praise the staff highly enough for how comfortable they made my stay - if you stay here you will be very well looked after!

Good enough for me, at the lower price point
My room was clean, but sparse with a small TV - not much of an issue for a tourists on a short break like me though. The lack of a free standing shower or functionning shower curtain seems standard for Greek accomodation, at least in cheaper places. Perfect location for metro access (2 mins walk), which would leave just a few stop to most tourists stop. However, Metaxourghio has a bad reputation amongst locals. I took the Metro or taxied back when its dark. I never saw anything to warrant the reputation, but i only there a few days.

Metaxourgiou is definitely not the safest area of town however metro and attractions were not far away. Excellent staff at the hotel, would advice to stay if your trip is no longer than a couple of days.

Good for a cheap hotel.
The hotel was clean and cheap (30 euros a night. It's 2 blocks from the subway and 4 blocks from a supermarket. All rooms have a fridge and air conditioning. Front desk staff were friendly and spoke English. One major problem: I had to leave for the airport at 3:30 AM and they failed to give me a wake-up call!

Be careful with Expedia!
I booked the room some months before our departure. The price wich I booked included breakfast. It was a non-refundable rate so I got the confirmation after payment. In the confirmation Expedia informed me that the rate did not include the brekfast and I had to pay further Eur 10/day for the breakfast. I could not get my money back although Expedia misleaded me. I did not get what I paid for. After a long correspondance and some phone calls I got always the same answer, and they were not willing to solve the problem but they were very unpolite and uncooperative. It was the first but also the last that I booked at Expedia! There are a lot of other agents wich are correct. I have never experienced this kind of fraud although I booked hundreds of rooms. The hotel is basic but clean, the neighborhood is poor but metro station is near. The stuff is trying to be polite.
