Roy hotel is a decent hotel, with friendly and helpful staff. Room was ok, very basic but in a good state. However the bathroom deserves very good attention, no shower holder, a deep cleaning is very much needed.
The area is a bit rough, especially when it gets dark, although I did not feel unsafe. The area offers a lot of coffee shops, great underground and buses links, walking distance to the Karaiskaki Square, where there is a stop to the hop on and hop off Athens day tours bus.
