Excellent 4 night stay. Great location, walkable to all the sights. Plenty of local eating and dinking options.
We really enjoyed our stay in Athens and at urban tales. The location is amazing with everything being walkable distance. The hosts were very kind and responsive to any questions we had and the check in process was smooth. We would definitely stay here again

Location excellent
Communication and app perfect
Mostly weekend that got a little loud, other days were fine
Clean
The hotel is located in the really cool area with many restaurants, the host was really nice, cool and helpful. Amazing place to stay - the best location we stayed in Greece.
Thank you very much for your advice.
Very clean and practical artfully decorated place at reasonable value with a very attentive host. The area is close to lots of restaurants. But, due to the same proximity you will have some noise even with windows closed.
But sure I would come back.
This room is very nice and conveniently located. The check-in and access to the property is well managed and it was well-appointed. Tassos was super nice and easy to communicate with! They luckily provide you with 2 sets of ear-plugs for sleeping as the music and young people at the clubs below are VERY loud until at least 2:00am. Also, it is not true about the laundry - there is none in the unit or building so we had to walk 10 minutes to a laundromat.
Really comfortable apartment & great for a few nights stay while I was working in Athens. The hosts were really helpful & arranged a transfer for me when a strike meant there was no metro or taxis to get to the airport. There's a lovely bar on the corner that made a 'local blend' tea that was perfect after a busy time trying to fit in sightseeing in the evenings.
The apartment was very well furnished with cooking equipment, although (apart from the coffee machine!) I didn't get chance to use it. Quite near the Acropolis & walked past it each night which of course, is just mega!

On yhe edge of a busy area of cafes, restaurants and bars.
Had an incredible stay at Urban Tales. Tassos was extremely helpful during my stay and gave great recommendations on places to go and where to eat.
The hotel is located in a very convenient location close to numerous restaurants and bars, and an easy walk to the train station, which was important as I was only there for a quick trip.
Roughly 15 minutes walk to the Acropolis, and minutes from other great historical places to visit. Was the perfect location for everything I wanted to see and do.
Beautiful loft-style room, in immaculate condition. Loved my stay there and will definitely be back. Highly recommended!
