This hotel was worst than some hostels I have stayed at. Although the price was one of the cheapest we found in Athens it was not worth the price for us. We didn't expect much and we didn't get much. It was in a very sketchy neighborhood, and barely offered the minimum essentials one would expect from a hotel. The... more

Stayed at Alma for 3 nights, linen and towels changed every day, room cleaned every day! Great bar around the the corner with cool staff, it begins with an E but could not pronounce it. Ok so Breakfast is not great but what do you expect for the price. Its very central ,easy access to the metro, staff varied from... more

The hotel Alma is in a very convenient place for sightseers and students. Just off Omonia square, this hotel has easy metro access and for just 30 Euro per night provides fantastic value. As a student I found the price most reasonable. I only stayed for one night as I was setting off elsewhere in Greece the next day, so... more

We stayed here for a one night stopover in Athens, it is Athens so what do you expect, the area is pretty grim and maybe a solo woman traveller might want to spend the extra on somewhere nicer, but a few nice places to eat nearby and pretty handy for transport, the staff at reception are not rude or anything... more

Just like previous reviews, we found the area right out front of the hotel very dodgy, but Omonia Square much less so. That said... the main reason this place is risky is not because of the neighborhood, but because of the building itself. My friend looked out the window from our 8th story room and pointed to a huge crack... more

We ended up here thanks to our travel agent who says he allegedly stayed here, but I have a hard time believing that when there are are equally budget friendly choices to choose from. Anyway, this is a hostel! Actually, we have stayed at cheaper, nicer hostels than this. We went trekking to find a laundry and ended up having... more

I wouldn't suggest this hotel to my worst enemy, as I am not that cruel. A friend of mine booked there as we were looking for a cheap and central place to stay for a couple of night, back in Septermebr 2007. I don't know wheter situation has changed since then, but I doubt. Well, it's cheap and it's close... more

I traveled with two friends, both of whom have stayed in various hostels around Europe, and they agreed the hotel Alma was a step up from a hostel, but just barely. The room was tiny, and awkward, and poorly lit, but it was clean enough. The bathroom window didn't lock. The beds were not comfortable. The front desk staff was... more

This hotel was in a shady area, but the hotel itself was worth the money. For three nights it was only $125 USD, and it was very close to the metro station, so it was very convenient. But the first thing I wanted to do was get out of the area during the day. As a lone female traveler, I... more
