It was like a huge washing machine in the neighboring apartment below or above had gone to its centrifugation stage as the structure of the building trembled. Our bed definitely shaked.

Witness location : Glifada (Greece) (92 km E from epicenter)

I was serfing on the web while the quake took place. It lasted about 5-7 seconds, quite long in addition to others felt in Athens. It started smoothly then accelerated a bit to a stronger jerky movement causing things around in the room to rattle. According to peoples' reaction on Twitter at which I was online, it was largely felt and some even woke up from it! 
I don't like the epicenter, as it comes with a history of the 6.7 R quake of 1981 (Alkyonides area).

Witness location : Vouliagmeni (Greece) (95 km E from epicenter)

Slight increase of a 1m length horizontal external wall plaster crack (on it's external surface) , of my apartment (2nd=last floor)
& 
Slight increase of a few roof slab metope detachments  , created during earlier years, probably as a combination of humidity penetration (probably due to inadequate slab waterproofing ) & previous earthquakes.

Light sway, doors cracked, duration was about 3-5''.
