The location was perfect because it was a short walking distance to the Acropolis museum. One must visit this museum first before going to the Acropolis to see Parthenon, etc. to be able to appreciate the structures more. There were grocery stores nearby and lots of restaurants. Do the hop on, hop off too for Euro 20 per person. It stops in the Parliament building to see the changing of the guards, Ancient Agora, marble Olympic stadium and of course the actual Acropolis.
