We had an absolutely lovely time staying in the apartment. A week or so before arriving, Aristides sent us detailed emails with suggestions on what to do in Athens for New Year's Eve and January 1st. Any questions we had about the apartment, parking, transportation, etc. were promptly answered with accurate information. When we arrived at the apartment, Dolly and Lorna were waiting for us, with the Christmas tree lit, welcome treats and a good luck gift awaiting us and wine in the refrigerator. Dolly fully explained all aspects of the apartment and a toilet seat that had just broken before we arrived was promptly repaired the next day. I second Kirsten's review and would like to add how warm and homey the apartment felt. It was one of the nicest places we've stayed in throughout all our travels. I would recommend this apartment over a hotel for the space, and the warmth of staying in Aristedes' and Dolly's beautiful home. We came home (as you see, we felt as if we were home) from sightseeing one day and Aristedes and Dolly had left us more holiday treats and a traditional cake for the New Year. We felt as if we had family in Athens, which is so different than visiting a city and not knowing anyone there. And of course, the amazing view, it is exactly what you see in the photo and sitting at the dining room table or on the spacious porch, gazing at the Acropolis and Parthenon is indescribable.
