The Vintage Apartment is indeed charmingly furnished with some handsome Art Deco pieces that evoke the decades before the 2nd World War. The ceilings are high, there are handsome rugs on the floor, a vintage telephone waits patiently to ring once again. The cute kitchen has a solid marble sink and a noisy little refrigerator that is a wonder of longevity. It is a ground floor apartment with a convenient entry right off the spacious entry hall of a nice apartment building in Plaka just steps away from Syntagma Square, and even closer to some excellent cafes, very good Greek restaurants and, remarkably, good Indian and Asian restaurants. The cathedral bells always let you know what time it is, although the apartment windows have a view no further than the opposite wall of the air shaft between buildings.
Anna, the host, is meticulous and welcoming. When we arrived in mid-December the place was decked out with a Christmas tree, lights, festive touches and a plate of fruits and sweets. A beloved aunt wouldn't have been as thoughtful or as caring as Anna. It goes without saying the apartment is absolutely clean, the wifi is flawless, and the more you stay there, the more you see how Anna has thought of everything you might possibly need to relax and enjoy you stay in her Vintage apartment.
