We stayed with Giannis for 3 nights. He lives in a nice quiet neighbourhood which we enjoyed after coming back from all the hustle and bustle Athens had to offer. He is near to restaurants around the Thissio area and we walked everywhere from his. He has a beautiful home and garden and we also got to meet his lovely friends and son. Giannis was so welcoming and warm and was so patient in explaining and recommending places to go and see or eat. It was lovely hearing the local side perspective on things and also wonderful to hear a little bit of history about his home. Its beautiful and his art is so beautiful also.
I definitely recommend staying at Giannis.
