After my phone was jacked at the airport, it was extremely difficult to communicate with the hosts, however, they patiently worked with us and a few hours later we finally connected. Nick was very informative regarding what to see, do and eat. He gave us some tremendous input on restaurants. The location is perfect, and the apartment was well equipped, walkable to everything, however, it is in the middle of the city. Athens has a pretty bad homeless problem so you'll dodge bodies now and then. Fabulous foodie city, loved the strenuous walk up the mountain to the historic sites. Be very, very careful of pickpockets in the major cities of Greece.
