This was a fantastic place to stay.The family were so welcoming, providing us with an unexpected meal when we arrived, and chatting to us. There was a spiral staircase to our room, a balcony and other levels where we could sit and relax outside. Below, at street level, a Saturday fruit and veg market provided a profusion of activity and colour. Shops, cafes and restaurants were close by. Situated in the Bohemian quarter of Exarhia, art and graffiti were on every building, and the atmosphere was very friendly. The popular sights and museums are within reach of a good walker. Sunset on the nearby steep Lykavittos Hill was fantastic, giving superb views across Athens.
