Great find in a nice area
I stayed in Athens as I participated in the marathon, this hotel is in walking distance to one of the pick up locations and close to a metro to get back from the finish. The area it is in is very Shoreditch, London. It has a lot of small bars and restaurants of which are open into the early hours. A word of warning there is a club somewhere that was open and pumping loud music well up to 4am, so if you’re a light sleeper you can use the earplugs provided. The hotel itself is great and the room very spacious and had all the amenities you need, kettle, coffee machine, fridge, good sized bathroom and huge bed. The staff were brilliant and very helpful even being able to accommodate me with a late check out. I will certainly be booking here again.
