The front rooms (facing the Market) can be noisy so request a back room.
Rough Guide
"This new, budget boutique hotel, directly above the fruit and vegetable market, is handy for Psyrrí too, though the area can be rather insalubrious at night."

To avoid these issues, upgrade to a superior room or suite – which all have views of the Acropolis – on a higher floor.
