I'm going to Athens this summer-- anyone have any recommendations for hotels, I am not looking for something luxury just clean and close to the sites.I can afford up to $100 a nite. We are also thinking about going to Crete and maybe one or two of the islands. Any and all recommendations are apprciated. I will recepricate with some good places in the USA that I know about.....Thanks.Chris

we're staying at the following for less than $100 night for 2 people with breakfast included and it didn't get bad reviews (it probably got some good ones since i looked long and hard but can't remember exactly what now)
