Perfect Location right in the Historic District

What a great location. The flat is perfect for four and has everything you need to make a great Athens get away. It is within view and walking distance of anything that historic Athens has to offer (Temples, Acropolis, Museums, etc). Well furnished, great air conditioning and access to a washer/dryer as well. The wrap around balcony offers a nice view and sense of the area with great food nearby. The lock box is a little unusual as it is on a nearby fence, but once we figured that out everything was great. The host was friendly and accessible when needed without ever being intrusive. high reccommend.

Very nice, great location

We really liked this apartment. The location really is 5 min walk to the Plaka and the Acropolis. A couple of items to note. The room AC units don’t come on until it is 25c (about 78F). It was a little warm at times but we were able to cool it a bit by opening the windows. Also…it is a bit noisy at night because the apt faces a street that is fairly well trafficked even at night.

Right in the middle of everything

This property was reasonably priced and a very nice apartment. Beds were clean and comfortable. Place was clean and then there was the kitchen. That is the only part of the house that was neglected. It was not very clean and was not very well appointed. We to wash things before we used them. Yuk. If you have no interest in the kitchen, this would be perfect. Location. It is above a very busy street and a quiet drink on the balcony is not an option. If you like the noise, go for it. With the windows closed it really cuts down on the traffic noise.

Beautiful natural light

Enjoyed 6-day stay, next door to conference at 5* hotel. The wraparound patio is over busy street, but the light coming in through THREE sets of balcony doors is stunning throughout the day. Washer is in bathroom - clothes did need to be hung to finish drying. WiFi probably not enough for a zoom call, barely managed streaming but sufficient for our needs. I’d be reluctant to bring noisy kids - plenty of room but building is not really sound proofed at all. Nespresso machine available - I needed to pick up pods. Olive oil and basic seasonings, tea, sugar stocked. Very nice shower, utilitarian furniture, comfy bed and pillows. We only had one set of keys provided which created some inconvenience with coordinating coming/going. I do recommend and would stay again.

Difficult start

Due to flight delays, we arrived on midnight. Unfortunately, the lockbox code had been sent to my spam messages. I looked there but was unable to find it. Unfortunately, when I called the emergency number (twice) at midnight while literally on the sidewalk, there was no answer and the voicemail box was full. I also texted the emergency number without answer. We ended up having to get rooms at the hotel across the street for the first night. On day 3, we were awakened with drilling/construction that was very loud in an adjacent apartment. This went on for hours. The apartment was as advertised and functional, but there were major hiccups.

Super central to all sightseeing!

Our family of five stayed for 3 days and couldn’t be more central to Acropolis, Plaka, etc. easy access to groceries and restaurants. Hosts were very helpful with info on airport transfers, checking to make sure we got in ok, etc. Place had everything we needed, good space for five, nice living room area. Great views and balcony.

Great Location

Considering Athens doesn’t have a lot of green space, this apartment sits right across from a grove on one side and has some trees adjacent to it as well. Great little wrap-around balcony, easy walk to the Acropolis, really comfortable beds, and a washer/dryer in the unit. The kitchen isn’t designed to accommodate large meals but perfect for what we needed.

Perfect stay and great location

The location is central to everything that we wanted to do--walking distance to the Acropolis and the Plaka. Apartment was clean and very comfortable. We were also extremely impressed with how quiet the unit was, even during heavy traffic times. Deck had a table and chairs for sitting outside and people watching. Check in process was easy, and the owners checked in with us via email to make sure that everything was OK. They recommended Welcome Pickups as a transfer from the airport to the unit. We did this and was so pleased with the service we used them for all transfers during our Greece stay.

AMAZING VIEW!!

This was a lovely apartment with a STUNNING view of the Temple of Zeus. I couldn't stop looking at it when I was there. The picture of the view does not do it justice. The owner needs to take a better photo so people can see the view that it really offers. It also has a cute little balcony to look at the view. Just wish it had a little table and chairs so we could eat breakfast and drink coffee out there. The bed is cozy and comfortable. It is in walking distance of most attractions, Plaka and the metro. We actually walked to all the sites and only took a taxi back once because we had wandered so far. The bedroom, bathroom and kitchen offer everything you need and more. I really loved this place and would book again.
