Guest Reviews
- Madelyn (10/5): - great location, comfortable bed and easy to find. had a little trouble opening the door, have to really push the key to the right to open it
- Pavol (9/5): -
- Ines (7/5): - Gute zentrale Lage, geräumig Das Gebäude und der Eingang sind etwas komisch...
- Ατιφετ (10/5): - Όλα υπέροχα ο οικοδεσπότης άριστος.μας βοήθησε πολύ.. σε όλα θα το ξανά επισκεφτούμε σηγουρα
- Carlos (8/5): -
- Martine (8/5): - Propriétaire très disponible à toute heure, appartement très bien situé, pas loin de la plaka, calme et bien équipé
- Kathleen (10/5): Tolle preiswerte, zentrale Unterkunft mit erstklassigem Frühstück - Alles hat uns gefallen. Die Lage war sehr zentral. Das Frühstück war sehr vielfältig. Wir konnten etwas bestellen und hatten dabei 11 Essen mit unterschiedlichen Zeitfenstern zur Wahl. Das früheste Zeitfenster war 7:30 - 8:00. Das konnte nicht immer eingehalten werden, daher erhielten wir die Möglichkeit ins Pura Vida ab 7:00 - 10:00 zu gehen. Dort wurden wir sehr nett bedient. Auf jegliche Anfrage wurde vom Gastgeber sehr schnell und kompetent reagiert. Es war eine sehr ruhige Unterkunft in einer Nebenstraße. Man hatte alles war man braucht. Die Tür ließ sich schwer öffnen.
- Martyna (2/5): Very disappointing experience. I will never stay here again. - The location is quite good – close to the city center. For just one night, it’s not the worst option The main downside is the breakfast – or rather, the lack of it. It was supposed to be delivered to our door, but despite waiting literally at the door even longer than the estimated delivery time, it never arrived. Unfortunately, the apartment staff chose to pretend the problem didn’t exist, implying that the guests must be deaf or stupid for not hearing any knocking or ringing. Absolutely unprofessional behavior. In the end, we left Athens without breakfast, hungry before a long flight, and having wasted our time waiting for something that never came.
The view from the apartment is also quite depressing.
I would strongly advise against using the elevator – no one from the staff warned us about it, but thankfully, the staff from the neighboring massage studio told us not to get in, especially with luggage, as it could end badly. So we had to squeeze up to the 3rd floor through narrow, winding stairs.
Overall, not a place I’d recommend.
- Kola (8/5): - Ok Ok
- Στέφανος (7/5): - The host was great. He was very helpful when we got confused about the location. He mindfully walked us through finding the location. The apt. was central and cleaned well. The host was quick to answer any questions that came up. The building elevator had a stench. The host explained that there had a back-up with building toilets 3 days earlier. This is not on the host. Its a building issue which we smelled anytime we took elevator.
- Péter Mihály (10/5): Jó felszereltség, naponta takarítottak,. - Beivárosban, rendkívül jó helyen.
- Emanuela (8/5): Benissimo per soggiorni brevi - La posizione, la disponibilità dell’host che abbiamo chiamato più volte ed è sempre stato gentile. La colazione direttamente in camera La vista dalla camera, il palazzo in cui si trova, si passa attraverso l’ingresso di un centro massaggi, non sono disposti ad aiutare
- Dominique (8/5): -
- Sonia (7/5): - Lo mejor la ubicación aunque para encontrarlo es difícil. Ell ascensor muy antiguo y peligroso..
Las vistas son a un patio.
Falta de utensilios en la cocina
- Damian (8/5): - Gute Lage Dusche muss repariert werden
- Jonathan (7/5): Alojamiento amplio en el corazón de Atenas - El alojamiento destacó por su amplitud. Tiene una cama de matrimonio en la habitación principal y otra cama amplia justo a la entrada (en lo que sería el salón).
Ambas “habitaciones” tienen aire acondicionado cosa que se agradece mucho.
Está reformado y muy limpio.
Recomendaría este alojamiento por su tamaño, comodidad y localización. El servicio de desayuno sin duda.
El desayuno funciona con reserva previa a través de otra empresa. En su web seleccionas el tipo de desayuno que quieres y la franja horaria a la que deseas que se te entregue. Hay que reservar siempre antes de las 22:00h del día antes.
Nosotros nos alojamos tres días, haciendo la reserva siempre en hora cómo se nos indicó. NINGUNO de los días el desayuno se entregó en la franja horaria indicada con lo que tuvimos que retrasar nuestras visitas a la ciudad. Incluso perder alguna visita programada. De hecho el último día no llegó nunca el desayuno y no pudimos desayunar. Además, por esperar a que llegara nuestro desayuno perdimos nuestro traslado al siguiente destino.
La calidad y cantidad de los desayunos está muy bien pero el servicio es pésimo. Al reclamar esto nos decían siempre que los retrasos se debían al tráfico.
De saber que a esa hora hay mucho tráfico consideramos que se debería de tener en cuenta y ser previsores, asegurado un buen servicio de entrega.
- Isabelle (8/5): Un séjour agréable avec un propriétaire arrangeant, sympathique et disponible. - L'accueil et la disponibilité du propriétaire. La situation géographique. Le distributeur des produits pour la douche ne fonctionnait pas.
Il manquait des volets dans le salon.
- Daniel (10/5): - No se me ocurre una ubicación mejor en Atenas. Un apartamento perfecto, limpio, amplio, casi todo nuevo y en el centro de Atenas. Además el propietario no se pudo comportar mejor. Tuvimos un problema importante y nos lo solucionó en apenas unos minutos. Ideal para alojarse en Atenas
- Daniel (9/5): -
- maya (7/5): טוב ללילה - מיקום הגענו בלילה מאוד מסובך להכנס לדירה. דירה מאוד בסיסית
- Ilona (8/5): Very good - Great location, well maintained apartment, suitable for a couple or a family of 3 for 1 or 2 nights It's overpriced
- Ivan (1/5): The worst experience. Bed was infested with bed bugs. Worst customer service - We booked a room for three nights at Ulysses Apartments Syntagma. I arrived at night, and within minutes of our arrival, we discovered a nest of bed bugs; the bed was infested. I immediately contacted the owner to request a different room, but he informed me that he couldn't assist until the following day. I couldn't let my wife and son stay in such conditions, so I had to take a taxi and secure another hotel for three nights in the middle of the night, incurring additional costs for last-minute accommodations.
I sent videos and photos to Ulysses Apartments Syntagma, requesting reimbursement for the hotel relocation. As anticipated, he did not offer any solutions. Instead, he insisted that I return to the room at 11 am the next day to show him personally where the bed bugs were, despite having already provided him with evidence. I was unwilling to interrupt my vacation to demonstrate what needed to be addressed in the room, as I had already sent him proof.
The following afternoon, he texted me stating, "we checked the apartment and of course there was nothing." He disregarded the evidence I provided and continued to assert that there was no issue.
I hope the owner engages professional pest control services to clean the room so that future guests do not experience the same ordeal I faced. Furthermore, Ulysses Apartments Syntagma must reevaluate their business practices; the lack of support and concern for their customers is among the worst I have encountered.
Given that Ulysses Apartments Syntagma refused to provide a solution for the extra expenses I incurred for my last-minute accommodations, I had no choice but to contact my credit card provider to dispute a refund for the three nights I paid for, of which I did not even stay a full night.
- Naneh (8/5): Very good - The location was really good, and the apartment was nice. We also had breakfast in the cafe which was really nice. The check-in process was a tiny bit complicated, but we figured it out.
- David (6/5): Great location, difficult to access the apartment. - Location and cleanliness It was hard to find. Difficult to gain access to the apartment.
- Laith (7/5): Good - The location was excellent and the apartment was clean. The location of the key and the main door is not clear in the pictures.
- K (6/5): Pleasant -
- Eldad (2/5): I wouldn't recommend this property to friends and family - The whole booking, payment and accessing the property we're very convoluted, complicated. I can't count the number of emails I received re thus booking.
Bed very uncomfortable, water doesn't drain in the shower, shelf broken in the room
- Doris (9/5): Superb -
- Antonios (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mihaela (7/5): Good value for money, good location for a short stay - Location was very good, also the breakfast included . Very nice bathroom, good facilities. The only window and balcony towards a inner courtyard with bad smell.
- Janice (10/5): excellent location and new facilities - the location was perfect , its on the main center , apartment was clean and brand new the exact building wasnt clear ,but its just through the entrance of Nuad Thai massage next to the Textile/fabric shop
- Maroun (8/5): Very good - Position
- Roberto (6/5): Would not choose it again - Location is good, close to Acropolis, the museum and restaurants. Also Plaka district is close. Small, not what you expect when you go for an apartment.
Central control of everything quite unnerving.
Bedroom is invaded by a ridiculous living room superstructure that takes away space.
No space to have dinner.
Property was changed a day before arrival, we had chosen Syntagma.
- Annabelle (10/5): Exceptional -
- Teresa (8/5): Fantastic place to stay for a short break. Would stay there again! - Fantastic central location for seeing the sights of Athens. Modern, clean bright apartment. Air conditioning in both rooms. Wifi excellent. Lift up to the 3rd floor. Access by phone app worked perfectly We wanted to cook more- but whilst there is a bit of cutlery there are no sharp knives, can openers, wooden spoons/serving spoons, oven gloves etc so meant we were very limited as to what we could cook.
- Andrew (10/5): Amazing and would highly recommend - The room was very clean, extremely comfortable and the staff’s warm hospitality made my stay truly memorable. Plus, the central location was perfect for exploring the city’s vibrant neighborhoods and attractions!
- Rawa (10/5): Exceptional -
- Elizabeth (7/5): Good - The apartment was fine. Adequately furnished. The bed was comfortable and the area really convenient for Syntagma Square and walking to the Plaka, Roman Agora etc. Didn't like the "key" system, working from an app. It worked, took a bit for me to work it out, just prefer keys.
- Voronin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Krzysztof (9/5): Superb - Great location walking distance to all main attractions . Everything was good
- Qays (7/5): Good - Clean apparment central location 350 m from center monstraky squere near every thing im talking on the same appartment in pictures cz yluese has anther apprtmrnt not good 2 starts enough on it and its far awsy from center and for no more than 2 person with 1 bed 24 hr .Before we arrive we recived massage that the main appatment have tube brush while we were resirve it and payed for it ylussess changed the appatment with another one not good one and that was not good cz we where payed for it and if there is any probles he must not offering it for rant it caused us cofussion and wast our time this was not good
- Dominika (10/5): Perfect spot for visiting Athens - Apartment is big,modern, fully equipped, comfortable and quiet. Location is just perfect.
- Ourania (7/5): Good - The location is excellent, off Ermou street between Symtagma and Monastiraki. The appartment has recently been renovated, so in excellent condition and clean. Also breakfast at PURA VIDA was excellent. Actually PURA VIDA adds value to this appartment.
The owner was very responsive to messages. The appartment is on the 3rd floor (but in reality on 4th). The lift was NOT working for our entire stay (4 days). We notified owner and he said it was going to be fixed but it never did. Should we had any mobility problems, the apprtment would not have been accessible at all. The owner knew about the lift and did not warn us or at least let us know about it just in case we had any mobility issues.
Also on Sunday, PURA VIDA is closed and we were not able to have our breakfast. The owner said he will refund us for this. The owner said it was because of the bank holiday but he PURA VIDA staff told us that they are always closed on Sundays. So if you book with brrakfast on Sunday, you will not get it.
- Andris (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect location, clean room, super helpful owner. Would like to stay there again on next travel. Nothing
- Giorgos (9/5): Superb - Very convenient location and spacious apartment. No washing machine despite size of apartment and very small hunger with few clicks to attach cloths.
- Trish (7/5): Good -
- Harry (10/5): Very comfortable and private - Walking distance from entertainment and sightseeing. Quiet place. Very clean. Nice host.
- Konig98 (8/5): Very good -
- Margarita (9/5): Superb - Confortable and convient!! Great communication from owner! The massage place in the second floor amazing!!! A little hard to find but after the app for the door work good! Need to clarify why we need the key in the box in the front :)
- Shohei (9/5): Superb -
- Harry (10/5): Great stay - Great value - Great host - International and multi-lingual host; Location in the center of Athens but very quiet; Walking distance to great entertainment and night life as well as to shopping
- Natalia (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment is so comfortable and modern and takes place in the heart of Athens.
The bedrooms and the bath are very cosy and warm with a very good taste of fashion.
It has the whole package. And the next time I'll come with my family cause it accommodates easily three people.
Huge thanks to Ulysses for the hospitality and for all the services.
