The Stanley
"The area is ghetto, not safe even with security around. Lots of homeless junkies all over even in the water in front of the hotel. The roundabout from hell is right there so very hard to drive around and not walking friendly. I would never stay here or in this area again in Athens. AVOID AT all ..."
