Marousi: hotel con bar

I've been in Athens many times, and my first advice is if you're visiting the Greek capital for sightseeing don't stay here. The hotel is in a remote northern suburbs, too far from Athens main sights. We came here on purpose because of the Iron Maiden concert at the nearby Olympic stadium (10-15 min walk) so it served us well, as we didn't go to downtown Athens. Hotel consists of two parts (with different names) - one is pet friendly, one isn't. In between is a fair size pool with several sunbeds. Rooms are spacious, but as others said - dated. Housekeeping is non existent - put a complaint the safe deposit box wasn't working as well the fridge, AC was barely working with strange sounds, asked for extra pillow - no one solved even one of these, nor even apologized. As we stayed only one night didn't bother to complain again. Breakfast is generous and good quality - many items to choose from fruits, pastries, cold cuts and cheese, eggs, sweets,.... Location is in the middle of residential area with nothing to see or do except the Olympic stadium and Mall of Athens.
