The place is well furnished and Spiros was very responsive to questions. I arrived early and Spiros was flexible enough take my baggage early. It's a neighborhood of locals, not tourists. Yes, there is some graffiti on the walls in some areas but that's Athens for you. When I walked around the neighborhood in the evening, I got a better sense of how nice the people are. There's a local square called Mercury Square down the street that has several nice affordable restaurants and cafes. We saw lots of young hipsters hanging around the square on a Sunday evening (the Weather Underground band?). We also stopped into a local shop where some local ladies were selling some jams and liqueurs for Doctors w/o Borders.
