This was our first visit to Athens and George's place really made it enjoyable, It's location was better than the description and the view from the patio was spectacular. Every morning and evening, the view of the Acropolis was spectacular. Its proximity to restaurants, places of interest was fantastic as there was no need to taxi's or even public transportation. The Plaka Area a great place to walk as long as you dont mind crowds.
The acropolis museum is a must see as well as a wonderful alk thru these tiny and I mean tiny streets right below the wall of the acropolis. I dont remember the name of the area, but it was a great walk and ended up at an area overlooking the entire city of Athens with the Parthenon so close you could throw a stone at it (which you shouldnt do:-))
I cant wait to go back and I hope that when you are there you will stay at George's place, you will enjoy it. Just make sure you wear really comfortable walking shoes as there is so much to see.
