Apartment: Amazing location in the Exarcheia area. 15-20 minute walk to key tourist spots. Lots of bars and nightlife around, however, the apartment is extremely quiet due to proper window insulation (perfect for light sleepers). The apartment also has protective European outdoor shades which made me feel incredibly safe as a solo female traveller since it’s a ground floor - almost basement - apartment. I had no problems with the water heat or pressure. You have your own private backyard, perfect for drinks or eating. Lastly, really comfortable beds IMO.
Check-in: check-in was smooth, Spyros personally met me at the apartment right after my flight and handed me the keys.
Cons/something to keep in mind: no toiletries despite them being mentioned in the listing. No oven, just a stove top.
The apartment is also relatively small, so while it was perfect just for me, it might not be a great choice for a large group. I would say it would *comfortably* fit 2-3 people. 4 would be a bit tight as there’s only one bathroom. 6 would be way too much.
Overall, perfect stay for someone solo, a couple, or a small group of friends. Would definitely stay again! & while I felt pretty safe in this area, I recommend reading up on the history of the Exarcheia area before staying.
