It was my first time in Athens I choose this apartment because it was close to my daughter's place but also because it looked clean, with a lot of light and new modern furniture. I loved the shower in the bathroom, the washer especially when you travel light and you need to clean most of your clothes. Everything dried in one day on the balcony. The area seemed "rough" at first a lot of tagged building (most of them) but once the eye got used to it I discovered an amazing district Exarchiea , The Anarchist district where you can feel the solidarity between Greeks and refugees, the warmth of the people in bars , restaurants and businesses, I found all I needed there with of course a quick visit to the Acropolis. I loved it I felt safe like nowhere else.
