Fodor's Expert Review Jason Inn

Ayion Assomaton 12, Athens, Attica, 10553, Greece

Though it's on a run-down, seemingly out-of-the-way little corner, the modern Jason Inn is steps away from the buzzing nightlife districts of Psirri and Thissio, not to mention the ancient Agora and the Acropolis farther up the pedestrianized street. The marble-lined lobby leads up to guest rooms furnished in warm peach and pink tones, all of which have mini-refrigerators and good-size closets. Don't expect any modern, stylish, or artsy touches here: this is as stuffily old school as it gets in terms of decor. A buffet breakfast is included in the price of this no-frills, budget hotel, and the rooftop restaurant has an intriguing panorama spreading from the Acropolis to the ancient Kerameikos Cemetery to the modern-day warehouse district of Gazi.
