Marios place is just in the right location to visit central Athens. In 30 minutes you can walk to most of the squares as well as the Acropolis. Marios place has all you need. It is quaint but has all the amenities you need to cook a meal, do laundry. Etc. also very close to many restaurants and cafes. The best measure of any place is whether or not you would come back. Indeed it would be a place to come back to should we ever decide to come back someday. Also Marios was very helpful and just a message away. That was very helpful indeed . In the end I would recommend this place to anyone who wants an uncomplicated place to stay while visiting Athens.
