"Friendly hosts…great location"

COCO-MAT Athens BC

8/10 Good

"Let me start off by saying that I spend about 60-70 days per year in hotels. This hotel was very nice and I would stay again. I will start off with the positives- the staff was really nice. They let us have a check-in about 3 hours early. The hotel is an excellent location near all the tourist areas with shops, restaurants, museums, and the metro within easy reach. The hotel is clean and well maintained. The goods far outweigh the "negatives." The negatives....somewhere in their literature this hotel is described as a 5 star hotel. It is definitely not a 5 star hotel. By American standards, it's the equivalent of maybe a 3+ star hotel. I'm not knocking the hotel, but that's just what it is. Why? First off, the rooms are a bit small and awkward. The room feels much smaller than it is. When you walk into the room, there is a short hall that leads to the bed area. There is maybe 3 feet of space on one side of the bed, 4 feet on the other side, and maybe 4.5 feet on the third side. There isn't a traditional bathroom. The sink is in the hallway, and on either side of the sink is the water closet with the toilet, and a shower with a clear door on the other side of the sink. So basically there is no bathroom. The gym is sparse with equipment. The TV is small and half the channels don't work like CNN or BBC. The walls in the room are bare. They advertise an airport shuttle, but there isn't one- they just arrange one for you if want at your cost."

"Kindly allowed us to check in early."
