I spent January and February here as a solo traveller . The flat has a covered balcony that warms up in the winter sun and has a view of the Parthenon , making it a good place to sit and read. It was the main reason I chose it. It’s on a busy road but that’s how I live in London, so it never bothered me. There are car and bike repair shops downstairs and on each side but they carry on business quietly. The block is small and quiet and I hardly heard the neighbours. This is not a smart part of town but it’s safe and extremely convenient . There’s a large and very good supermarket next door and excellent bakeries only a few minutes away. You can walk to the Akropolis in about 15 minutes. Yannis and Helene are incredibly helpful and welcoming. It was reassuring to know that they were on hand if anything went wrong but nothing did. I lived very happily here for two months and I’m glad I chose it .
