As other reviewers have already mentioned, the place is on a hill, so be prepared to climb up with luggage if you are coming from the metro station! George's apartment is in a residential area and felt very safe - we were 2 Asian girls and did not feel unsafe at any point in time. There are also many coffee shops and restaurants nearby. The apartment was conveniently situated between Athens city centre (4 stops to Syntagma) and Athens airport (11 stops, approximately 35 minutes). The apartment was also very clean and had everything we need.
