The hosts did a fantastic job renovating the interior of a run down building. It’s not in the best neighborhood of Athens and some streets made me very uncomfortable walking even in the daytime due to the vagrants and the empty storefronts. But it’s in a great location, near Omonia Square, which is a hop, skip and a jump to the regional train station and Syntagma Square. If you choose to stay here, stay on 28isOktovriou Street when walking from the station to the property (Google maps give you several options for the walk route). This space where you will stay looks better in person than in the photos but the lobby and front door is a little disconcerting because it looks like an abandoned building. The door locks are challenging to figure out and I was constantly frustrated with opening the doors. They also lock the exterior door in the lobby at night and it’s not easy to get out because you can only open the door with a key that is stored in a lock box. I’d be very concerned if there’s a fire in the building since it’s not easy to get out.
