The apartment is located in a prominent position overlooking three pedestrian streets lined with restaurants and shops. The major attractions; Acropolis, temple of Zeus and other ruins are all less than 15 minutes walking distance. The layout of the apartment includes a large roof terrace, interior courtyard and balcony. Coming in from the street side door you are inside the apartment but still walk up a short flight of stairs into a courtyard and then to the 'second' front door of the house. From the courtyard you can access the roof terrace which has a nice view of the back side of the Acropolis and plenty of space for entertaining. The interior is impeccably clean and furnished well. There is a small balcony with table and two chairs which sits among the branches of a sycamore tree above a restaurant that makes you feel that you are dining with the others or observing the people as they shop and dine. The whole Athens experience is enhanced by the apartment which is not typical. The location "Plaka" is very clean and feels safe.
Nikolas was very attentive and personable. He was readily available and hands on which is not the norm for apartment rentals. The refrigerator was stocked with plenty of fresh fruit, water, orange juice and a bottle of wine.
I highly recommend staying there.
