I was disappointed. The flat is marketed as a "luxurious new listing," "bright, cozy and renovated" and at a special, discounted price. In my opinion, it just doesn't come up to the hype.
It's nice enough, a bit smaller than it looks in the photos - but they're generally accurate. The furnishings are far from luxurious, though - okay but I'd guess they were pretty cheap, in fact. The kitchen is small and ill-equipped. There are no cooking facilities. There wasn't even a kettle. What there was by way of crockery and cutlery was tat. The bathroom does the job, but it's exceedingly cramped. Flushing without putting paper down proved difficult.
The handle was coming off the door to the flat when I arrived. A socket was hanging off the wall in the toilet. The electrics blew as the host was on his way out. Neither of these had been fixed before I left. I think the place could do with being rewired. I was under instructions not to use all the lights at the same time or the system would overload. No wonder it wasn't all that bright. The central heating wasn't working. People don't pay their bills apparently. But Harry did say if it got cold he'd bring a heater round. I was also asked only to heat water for 15 minutes at a time. That's fine - but the TV seems to be on the same system (unless I missed something). Working that out took a while.
And in a "luxurious" listing, I'd have expected more and better towels.
One thing Harry got right: the location is fantastic. Its very convenient for the metro. Kolonaki has some great places to go to. And it's not far to the centre of town. Plus Harry himself was very nice.
But the overall verdict has to be disappointing. I was expecting more than that.
