The breakfast selection was more than adequate with healthy options, hot bacon and sausages. Its location was exceptionally nice, next to supermarket, taking a ferry to-or-from Rafina port having arrived at Athens airport and the port from which ferries travel to the Greek islands. We saw Sea Life Blackpool Aquarium, that's at a walking distance from the venue.
