We took one look at Effie's place and asked if we could extend our reservation an extra night. It is a clean, comfortable space, with a nice casual aesthetic. The AC was quiet and cool, providing safe haven during some of the hottest afternoons of summer, and a very pleasant night's sleep.
The shower had good water, though nowhere to hang the hose above.
There are good coffee and pastry shops nearby. The apartment has kitchen equipment, but the little bag of coffee that was in the cabinet was not yummy, so I would have bought myself a supply had I thought in advance.
A vibrant vegetable market sprang up below the apartment one morning. With the windows closed we couldn't hear a peep, but stepping outside you enter a world of color and delicious fruit.
One caution: the apartment is nowhere near the Acropolis. Check the map if the location is important to you. It is 5 minutes from the metro, and 20 minutes to the Acropolis stop on the metro (including time waiting for the train). This was not a problem for us, but you will be disappointed if you are expecting to be at the heart of the action.
