You can leave your bags at the Pacific Travel Agency at 26 Nikis Street near
Sintagma Square. The nearest metro station is Sintagma which is the stop
before Monastiraki.
Sintagma is really the centre of Athens - Monastiraki is about 2 kilometres
south in a kind of 'bazaar' area. It's quite fun to walk around, but I'm not
sure I would like to leave my luggage anywhere there.
