Urban Tales

TLDR: Stay here. It's perfect and has everything you need a stone's throw away. This is the best place to stay if you want elegance, convenience, and night life. Tassos and Sofia bring hospitality to a new level and have the best recommendations for places to visit and restaurants that aren't specifically for tourists. The room is immaculate and beautifully decorated and includes a kitchenette with Nespresso machine included, temperature control (including the air conditioner), comfy bed, and good water pressure in the shower. Our room had the balcony, which was great for having our morning coffee and something from the bakery across the road. In the day, it's a short walk to museums and historical sites like the Ancient Agora, the Acropolis, and Hill of the Muses or to markets and shopping. For dining, it's right at the end of the main street for food and drink. In the evening, we highly recommend the bar immediately out the front door: Psipsina. Great music and the best cocktails. They also do a cracking pizza for midnight snacking. If you want quiet after 10, this is not the spot for you (nor Athens in general). Come ready for a day of exploring and a night of entertainment.

Absolutely fantastic place to stay to see Athens. Room was immaculate, equipment with fridge, modern,clean, Aircon, and a HUGE mirror with a dressing table. Shower also very good. The host was extremely friendly, and the app made access very simple. One consideration is the noise from the street at night. Remember this is the city center with fantastic bars and restaurants that are open very late in the early hours. So please take ear plugs, because the windows are not double glazed and even with the shutters closed it was very noisy during the night (until around 2am-3am). Lucky we always take ear plugs so we were relatively undisturbed. Thanks again for a great stay!
