“Semeli Hotel has some rooms that could use a refresh, as some reports mention worn carpets and minor maintenance issues; however, the location in Athens is practical for getting around, and some rooms are quieter than others. I think asking for a room change if you're initially unsatisfied seems like a worthwhile approach here. Overall, this seems like a reasonable choice if location is your main priority and you're prepared to be proactive about room quality.”
