Lina was truly amazing and a fantastic host. My family and I arrived at about 8pm on the night of check-in and Lina and her daughter were waiting to welcome us, this made us feel so welcomed. She was very thorough with all the ins and outs of the apartment. The apartment is very chic and comfortable - a true home away from home. The view of the Acropolis/Parthenon from the balcony seals the deal. It is well equipped with the basic amenities (washing machine, dishwasher, etc) and is very clean. Lina's personality and pride shines through in the apartment.
The neighborhood is quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of Athens - recommended for families. There many senior citizen in the neighborhood, which adds more character and comfort. There is a lovely bakery and coffee shop about 2 mins down the road and a very convenient supermarket about 3-5 mins up the road. There are few restaurants just up the side road about 2 mins away. Plaka, Acropolis, Syntagma, Temple of Zeus are all within walking distance from the apartment. The Metro is a 5 min walk
I will highly recommend Lina's Place, especially for families and those who are looking to be away from the hustle and bustle. If your intention is to party all day and night and create a ruckus , then this may not be the spot for you, as you definitely need to respect the quiet hours of the neighborhood.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay xox
