Athens is an urban city. Like a lot of places in New York City, you can’t tell what a place is like until you open the door. We stayed for just one night - we were leaving on a cruise ship the next afternoon. We arrived from the 20 hours of 3 flights from Texas at dusk. The street door and outside walls were covered with graffiti. We unlocked the building front door, took the lift to the 5th floor, opened the door to our apartment - we were renting both units - the entire 5th floor, and we entered a BEAUTIFUL modern apartment. Out the patio, lit up like a movie backdrop, was a million view of the Acropolis. Hot tub Prosecco toasts to the Ancient Greeks!
