This is my first airbnb experience and it was perfect. Mike and his friend are very kind and helpful. Mike even drove to pick us up when the bus couldn't get into Syntagma Square. Once we arrived at the apt, we were exhausted from the walk from Hilton. So you can imagine how happy we were when we saw food in the fridge! Bread, yogurt, bananas, butter, coffee, water, etc really made us feel much better after the long walk from Hilton. The apt is spotless and clean. Even the towels felt great not cheap. Mike is also very responsive to messages. We requested a toaster for the bread and some simple metal hangers from him and we got them in no time!
This apt is perfect for my husband and I. There are a few tips for the apt: 1) We need to walk up one flight of stairs before reaching the elevator, not a problem for us but might be for others; 2) the washer could take a while (more than 1 hour). Coming from NYC our wash cycle takes only 30 mins. But we adapted, no problem; 3) the mini tour by Mike was very helpful and his recommendations on restaurants are great; 4) the surrounding is quiet, except on Friday night when there was music outside, I got earplugs so no problem as well.
All in all, we will stay with Mike again if we visit Athens again!
