We definitely recommend this AirBnb after staying 15 nights. It is just far enough from the busy tourist area and quite close to many attractions such as Panathenaic Stadium, National Gardens, and Aristotle's Lyceum. We purchased Athena cards with a senior discount for $15.95 each which provided transit on metro, tram, and buses throughout Athens (including beaches). The card was good for 30 days and also provided a greatly discounted fare on bus X95 that goes to/from the airport.
Our hosts were over the top in all ways, starting with excellent instructions on options to get from the airport to the AirBnb. We arrived in Athens early morning and were able to wait a short time on the terrace for our room to be available; this was a treat due to the welcoming environment, with the host's daughter answering our questions, setting up the excellent wifi, introducing us to another guest, and extending a willingness to assist in our vacation plans to any degree we wished. Our room was actually 1 bedroom with 2 closets, a den with a bed and large desk, an entry room with a bed, a kitchen, and a narrow porch. Perfectly clean and tastefully done! We met Veronica on initial arrival and later in the hallway; a delight and also so willing to assist in any way. Her husband informed us that "if you live in our house you are family". The recommended restaurant "Champions" was on the same side of the street as the AirBnb (turn left when exiting the AirBnb and go up some blocks), look for tables outside. We ate there almost every night. A bakery along this path had loaves of delicious bread. Our favorite pastry shop was close to the metro stop "Aghios Ioannis", the closest stop to the AirBnb. The host offered bikes for our use, invited us to dinner one night, and even left a parting gift. We will for sure be back to this AirBnb as everything about it was perfect (hosts, location in local nice neighborhood, and in general Greek hospitality).
We were pleased with the locals adherence to covid requirements including wearing masks and distancing, once in a while we needed to show proof of vaccination. The sites were not crowded. We loved Plato's Academy museum which was not even listed in our guidebook (free), walking on the same ground where Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and St Paul were, a day trip to Delphi on a public bus, and an organized day trip tour to Corinth canal, Mycenae, Epidaurus and Nafplion. This AirBnb and Athens will delight your soul if you allow it.
