“Hotel Lido sits in a challenging part of Athens, near late-night mini-markets and the bustle of Iasonos Street's red-light district; it's a location some might find overwhelming, while others see a raw, unfiltered slice of city life. For travelers who prioritize budget over polish and don't mind a gritty urban experience, Lido offers basic accommodations; it's a place for the resilient, not the faint of heart.”
