We had the best stay we could wish for at the apartment. Overall we would highly recommend you this AirBnb if you‘re looking for a place for two people.
The apartment:
The space is small but you have everything you need and most importantly, it‘s clean. The bed is super comfortable, there is functioning AC and even a built-in water filter for the tabwater. The bathroom is small but it is also super clean and the shower and sink are really nice.
If you are sensitive to noise during your sleep though, maybe bring earplugs. The building is not very soundproof and on busy nights/mornings that might disturb your rest.
The Check-In and Out:
Self checking into the apartment was incredibly easy. You get all the instructions you need ahead of time and they are very simple. Checking out was even easier.
Overall it felt super easy to access and leave the apartment and the building during day trips. Super no-fuss!
The area:
We had never been to Athens before, so we don’t have much to compare the area to. At first glance, the area seems to be not so wealthy and therefore a bit unclean. But don’t let that scare you off! We never felt unsafe at any point of our stay. People around are either minding their own business or they are super nice. You have everything you need nearby, such as little convenient stores to pick up water or nice restaurants for a quick bite.
And in our opinion, the area was golden because in 5 minutes we were able to walk into the more touristy areas and in about half an hour we could walk up to the Acropolis entrance. So it’s super convenient if you wanna go explore by foot!
The hosts:
Sokol and Kevin were the best hosts ever. They constantly stayed in touch, right after booking and then again a few days before our arrival. They always replied to all our messages and requests in less than an hour. They hooked us up with taxi drivers so we had the easiest transfer to and from the AirBnb. They made sure we felt safe, knew where to go and left us recommendations as well.
So if not for the great proximity to the Center and the Acropolis, the clean and cozy room, then we highly recommend you this place because the hosts were so great. Thank you to Sokol and Kevin ☺️🙏🏻
