The apartment is just what I expected, the pictures show exactly what it looks like, the location worked well for the price I was looking for and I always felt safe, even walking by myself after midnight because I always saw people and single women walking around, there is a lot of graffiti but I am from Mexico so maybe my perception is different and I do enjoy walking; it is only about a mile to Plaka neighborhood where most of the restaurants and shopping takes place and only half a mile to Panepistimio metro station; if you are not a cheap traveler, the easiest way to get around is getting a taxi using the BEAT app (thank you Dimitris for the tip) and the ride to Plaka/Acropolis should be less than €5; by the way, when you arrive to Athens the easiest way is to grab a taxi from the airport, the cost is a flat 38 € (at least that was the rate in August 2019) or if you don’t have lots of suitcases you can ride the metro and get off at Panepistimio station then walk half a mile to the apartment. I would definitely stay here again.
