COLORS Hotel Athens
This hotel was great. The staff is AMAZING. They went above and beyond from getting us a car (taxi strike) to making sure we had breakfast the morning we left. I would definitely stay here again.

The Stanley
Only the rooftop pool looks nice. The room is old. The mattress is very worn down, broken tiles, tiny shower with loose cover. The surrounding area is old, with broken buildings, unsafe to walk at night.
