This was the BEST place I have stayed in Athens in my 6 years travelling there.
Not the poshest or grandest but certainly the best fun and funky little home for a great budget price in a great location. Neat, clean and cute little touches personalised the place.
The big private rooftop with Acropolis to the front plus rear covered roof area overlooking park and so much more are just wonderful. I wish it was our place and If we win lotto I’ll make an offer they can’t refuse and buy it for all my visits!
The quite groovy little house is perfect for couples - comfortable with lots of little handy things from chocolate to ear buds to scissors made us feel very much at home.
Even when exhausted from all our Athens adventures we kept gazing out the window to THAT view then we’d find ourselves wandering around to the OTHER view.
With bakery opposite (lovely lady) and great coffee plus ribbon shop lady next door who was extremely helpful things just kept getting better.... so many cool eateries and bars nearby, so much great shopping from amazing old style original shops to high end stores not just bland ‘world over’ franchise stores, so many great walks and things to do... all right out the door. It was a great walk to Plaka but we felt less touristy staying in Psirri. Sure there are some gritty bits as this is a big city in hard times but things seemed on the up, the vast majority of people were tremendously friendly and we did not feel unsafe at all. We kept a change purse handy to give to people we might come across who had hit hard times but had no problems with pickpockets or anything.
We were very happy there at all times and will remember our stay very fondly always and most certainly hope to return. Thanks very much Maria, Stella and Nikos :)
