A very sweet, cozy spot for your launch point to get to know the beautiful city of Athens! Lots of other accommodations are in busier neighborhoods, but the location of Sokol's apartment is delightful -- a little off the busy roads, close to the National Garden, two blocks away from gorgeous sidewalk cafés where you can spend a whole afternoon people-watching and sipping coffee. The building itself is unfortunately a little loud -- the apartment is on the first floor and right next to the elevator, so it's hard to get a long uninterrupted sleep if you're bothered by sound. For what it's worth, their bathroom has one of the best showers I've used in any apartment in this region!
