Staying with Alex was my best AirBNB experience ever!
Alex's AirBNB is an example for every other AirBNB, precisely in the spirit of what AirBNB was once founded. I'm a very critical person/guest and rarely write reviews because of my busy (business) life. But my stay with Alex was the best stay abroad that I have ever experienced (hotels, AirBNB, Homeaway, Booking.com ect.).
For this stay I had never been to Athens, so I intended to take a taxi and informed Alex about the normal rates. However Alex came with a very special proposal, his mother lives near the airport and instead of waiting that she had to wait in the apartment and I had to search for the apartment. Has Alex offered me that his mother came to pick me up a very surprising proposal. But I have never had such a warm welcome by "foreign" people abroad. In addition, it was also a very relaxed way to get to the apartment, knowing that you are at the right address, not being scammed by a taxidriver and a nice ride with nice people made this a top experience!
The apartment fully meets the promise, is clean, has a good location and Alex would like to stay in touch with you and help with tips and advice to make your stay easier. He is also very friendly and likes to think along with you. My plane flew at the end of the day and I wanted to store my suitcases safely. Alex found it no problem to leave the suitcases in the apartment until 14:00, after which to leave safely and easily to the airport and enjoy your stay in Athens maximum.
He and his mother have definitely contributed to a pleasant stay in Athens and would like to thank them for that.
Hopefully I can meet Alex next time and have a beer together.
See you! Giel
