We had a great stay at Sokol's place. Even though the apartment appears to be in a run-down part of town, it's actually a very safe neighborhood, and the building itself is modern and well-kept. Sokol was very helpful before and during our stay. There was a transit strike the day we were arriving in Athens, and Sokol arranged for a taxi to pick us up at the ferry dock. The apartment is clean and modern, with comfortable bed, TV and kitchen stuff. Nice, roomy shower, which I like. The apartment is close to a couple of metro lines and close to Monastiraki Square, as well as the market and restaurant/bar area which surrounds Monastiraki. It's actually just a short 20-30 min walk, through the markets, to get to the Acropolis. My partner and I enjoyed staying here. It's a great place from which to explore the city. I definitely recommend it!
