Run down with some broken tiles etc but clean. Clean sheets and towels. For us, as a last night close to the airport metro and bus it was perfect.

The elevator is up two flights of stairs and the reception one so not great for physically hindered people.

The hotel is the perfect location for catching the Blue Star Ferry at the port. It is a cheap hotel room with a Tv, air conditioning, and a few windows. The room could be cleaner for sure but was super easy to check in and out.

After reading the other reviews, I was a bit worried about my stay.
But, as I just needed a good sleep after a long ferry ride, and an early morning flight, this place was fine. It was an ideal location for catching the metro to the airport and for arriving late from the ferry.
Sheets were clean, shower had great pressure, the staff person was helpful and stayed at the front desk all night. It was just what I needed for a quick one night stay.

We stayed at Ion Hotel for one night before our cruise and it was a great choice. The location is very convenient — just a 10-minute walk from the metro with a direct connection from the airport. The hotel is clean and comfortable, perfect for a short stay. If you’re heading to cruise terminal B or C, as we were, I recommend taking an Uber.
One tip: bring an adapter, since the room only has European plugs and no USB ports. Nothing fancy, but just what you need for a night.

I stayed here for 1 night to have a place before our cruise that left the next day. When we got there the female who checked us in was very kind and warming with her greeting. Unfortunately the stay only got worse from that moment on. Not only did our entire room and bathroom smell like an ash tray, the air conditioning unit did not work at all. Also we were woken up at around 3 in the morning to the male who was working the overnight shift talking, laughing, and yelling at what seemed to be the top of his lungs to his friends for about 45 minutes straight. Could not sleep through that noise, plus the added heat in the room due to no air conditioning working, and the smell of week old ash tray filling the room. At one point we even contemplated just going straight to the dock and just sleeping in the transfer area. This was by the far the absolute worst hotel experience I have ever had and will never recommend anyone to stay here again.

Prior reviews were pretty accurate

It’s about what I expected, in the 5-6 range. Small room that was in need of some maintenance, but very close to the port and the Metro, so very useful. If you are picky or sensitive, it may not be for you. If you just need a quick place to go for a night, it should be fine.

Marginal quality in a good location

We wanted a place near the ferry port in Pireaus. There were several mid-range cost options in the area. This place was convenient but the beds were wobbly, the hurricane shutters over the windows wouldn’t raise, doors slammed in the night (apparently from the old-fashioned elevator) repeatedly, no glasses were provided, and the desk staff was uniformly unhelpful. The shower worked but difficult to operate. The air conditioner worked well, as did the TV. Overall I think we could have done better in that price range in the area.

Pros:
-very short walk to the port for my ferry
- wifi free and fast
- private room and private bath for cost of a hostel

Cons: - the sheet provided for the bed was still damp and made the mattress wet underneath, no mattress protecter, just one flat sheet covering it and a damp one folded on top, I found a blanket in the cabinet but I doubt they are washed between guests

The bathroom was rough, mold all over the shower curtain, the shower dripped all night, and the toilet seat wasn’t attached to the toilet.

Smelled like cigarettes constantly, even with the window open

I have to say that this place is quite bad to stay in. However, we can still make do with it given the price paid is very cheap and to just stay for one night and it is just a street away from the jetty. We reach quite late at night, left very early morning the next day to catch the ferry. The aircon is not working but glad that they have thick blanket. There is no bathroom amenities. There were 3 of us but the hot water became cold water after just 2 bathes.

You get what you pay for

Very close to the port, and relatively cheap. There is a nightclub that plays music all through the night (was still going as we were leaving at 7am) which you can hear in the rooms. Our room did not have a functioning blind and all the street lights shone in. If you can spare the extra cash for a more expensive place, do it.

Not impressed

Apparently the booking online got mixed up and we were supposed to be there the night before our planned stay. So when we arrived there was some confusion, the woman at the front desk called someone and I talked to a man on the phone and he said it was not a problem I could stay there that night. Then the lady at the front desk handed me and my friends a key. Nothing else was said. So we went out to enjoy Athens and when we came back some other lady (I'm assuming the manager) told us we couldn't stay unless we paid for another night even though we were already told that everything was settled and we could stay that night. When I asked why we weren't told this earlier and given the keys and told it was fine she said \"I don't know. The lady who let you in is the maid she doesn't know any better.\" Even though I also talked to a man on the phone confirming it was fine. Then she tried to charge us double what we originally paid for that night on top of what we had already paid for the night before. Not impressed. Moral of the story: I would have been fine paying for another night due to the mix up but the fact I was told 5 hours earlier it was fine and everything was settled is what really made me upset. Get your staff on the same page.

I enjoyed my stay here, the price and location were perfect for exploring the ferries in Piraeus. Kind of gritty, but that can be cool. It was simple, but purposeful. The table reminded me of a Van Gogh painting and I felt transported back to the 1950s. Overall, it was an interesting experience and I'd do it again. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Very basic hotel but very close to the port. It is right across the Blue Star ferry terminus- one going to Santorini and very convenient for taking the early morning ferry. The qudruple room was very small but had four beds, though was very tight even to put our bags. There was no closet or hangers for the cloths. The bathroom was also very small and saw two cockroaches. The staff was good. The area is very busy and have many restaurants around.
