Perfect location, quiet and on a beautiful street, but very close to all the things we wanted to see in Athens, and to several metro stations and other public transport for anything that was further afield. Maria’s house is very nicely and interestingly decorated, and well equipped. But it was also liveable and homely. The bedrooms on the lower levels are dark and quiet, while the upstairs living area, balcony and roof terrace have great views up to the wall of the Acropolis on one side and across the centre of Athens on the other, which made early mornings and dusk beautiful.
Maria (and her father too) was a great host, writing friendly and helpful messages before we arrived, and responding quickly as we arrived at the house, and during our stay, and was as welcoming as one could wish!
I hope we’ll come back to Athens - we really loved our week in and around the city - and if (or when) we do, we would definitely stay at Maria’s house again.
