We had enjoyable breakfast with a wonderful view of Athens and cereal, as example. Had very central location in the center of Athens. And it was also just next door to the Acropolis, the centre and Syntagma Square. The check-in was friendly, we enjoyed outdoor bar.
Well, the shower pressure was poor.
