Perfect apartment with perfect host.
Host is wonderful - welcomed us with fresh oranges and peaches and cold water after a long flight - priceless. Located at a quiet street in a beautiful area, with Acropolis nearby. Athens is gorgeous and so much to do. Very safe area and city, wished we had time to stay longer.

Great apartment in a fantastic location. It’s a short walk to the Acropolis, Roman Agora, many good restaurants and shops. Our family of five was completely comfortable and felt at home. There’s also a cute balcony to sit for coffee in the morning or drinks in the evening. Yannis was a friendly, wonderful host, ready to help with tours and airport transportation.

Excelente departamento, muy bien ubicado, el host muy pendiente de todo, incluso nos esperó para recibirnos a las 4 am, nos dio recomendaciones, nos consigió todo lo que necesitamos (traslados, restaursnts, lugar para las valijas). La unica salvedad es que el colchon del sofá cama es muy angosto para un adolescente inclusive, se podría mejorar. Resto perfecto.

Tolle, sehr komfortable Ferienwohnung für bis zu 4 Personen. Die Lage ist genial - besser gelegen für Sightseeing geht nicht und dabei trotzdem absolut ruhig! Wir konnten alle wesentlichen Sehenswürdigkeiten und tolle Einkaufsmöglichkeiten locker zu Fuß erreichen. Restaurants in Unmengen im Viertel. Bequeme Betten, 2x TV mit Netflix, kleiner Balkon und Ausstattung der Küche umfangreich (inkl. Nespresso Maschine). Betreuung durch Yannis schnell und sehr gut.

Wunderbare geräumige Unterkunft für die Stadterkundung. Prima Lage in der Nähe des Syntagma-Platzes, verschiedener Restaurants und Cafés und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Gekocht haben wir nicht und können deshalb die Unterkunft auch nicht dahingegen bewerten. Badezimmer erfüllt seinen Zweck.
