The Aphrodite was out of the way (for "residential" read "ghetto"), and the staff was less than accomodating (it took 4 hours and three trips to the reception desk to get our air conditioning turned on), but other than that it was fine. The rooms were clean and had little balconies overlooking the streets, it's not too far to the metro stations and walking distance to the Archeological Museum, and there are plenty of opportunities to meet people, always people in the downstairs bar or chilling on the steps outside. Also, the area might be dirty, but it seemed safe and plenty of good, cheap places to find food and drink nearby (but be prepared to get more rude glances here than in the city center if you try to speak English). Would stay there again.

It was ok. Kind of hard to find. Good location though. Not a far walk from Victoria Square (I think it is) and lots of cheap shopping around. Rooms were decent. Crowded and ours was noisy but that's an exception.
