If this apartment is available TAKE IT IMMEDIATELY.
It has a unique and staggeringly beautiful view that made us feel we were at the heart of Athens without even leaving. The lighting and details in the apartment are indeed "penthouse" quality. To top it off, your host is EXTREMELY on top of things and checks on you. Because of this, our time in Athens a wonderfully rich and an exceptional experience.
Please note and do NOT be worried: Athens has a rich culture of graffiti, it's everywhere — accept and enjoy! I took a series of photos on the graffiti alone. This apartment is 100% safe and within walking distance of anything that you might want to see on a first time in Athens. Thanks to those who've stayed before for the forewarn — it made the difference for this city girl.
Enjoy the best of Athens here and feel a part of a hip community, Psiri has some really happening, delicious places and you will be so glad you were able to stay here!! (Atlanticos is a hole-in-the-wall seafood restaurant that we went back to a second time.)
Very close to the metro (from the airport or to Piraeus port and the islands).
