ATH is sorely in need of more competition and some more budget focused options for overnight stays
I agree it is overpriced ( although I have gotten rates on LastMinute.com as low as $200US. ) That said.... for us it is our go-to hotel for all our last night/ early departure flight at the end of our Greek sojourns. Perhaps it is an age thing ( I am 68, my husband 78) but it is worth every drachma for its convenience to us.
