A comfortable, spacious apartment right on the edge of the tourist neighborhoods.
The apartment is newly renovated, but with a lot of traditional touches and layouts. I wanted to show my friends, who were visiting Athens for the first time, what a typical older apartment looks like, and it was perfect! The airconditioning is strong and kept us cool, and the balcony offered a wonderful view of the street.
Orestis and his mother were very welcoming and showed us everything during the check in. It was very nice to meet them and learn the story of the apartment, because especially now so many AirBnB’s are owned by companies.
The apartment is an easy walk to the National Archaeological museum and the bus station (5 minutes) and has laundromat, groceries, and other amenities nearby. However, it is slightly more of a walk to and from the subway (8 minutes), and on a couple of long nights exploring the city we just found it easier to take a cab.
