Stayed in warm twin room with a balcony. There was a lot of great meals. The location was incredible and good, just off metro station/Larissa Station. Again, it was 10 mins drive from a dazzling museum.
The bed in my room was a bit hard.

In front of a subway station, the location was magnificent and best possible, on the Metro which is a 5 minute walk. Ate at O Typografos, it's relatively close to the venue. We were moved to a double room and had a nice balcony and an air conditioner.

A 15-minute walk is all what you need to get to monastiraki. Gefstiki Gonia, where you can eat, is just a walk down to the hotel. Don't forget to explore Psiri neighborhood. It is near to the airport:)))
