Close to really great night life and a 15 minute walk to anywhere (Hard Rock Café, metro stations, clubs, etc). The area can be a little sketchy at night (lots of graffiti), but I think that is just part of being in Athens. The apartment itself was fantastic! The host (Tasos) supplied us with tons of helpful information and even waited until 3am for our arrival. Tasos also offered help with anything we needed during our stay (reservations for restaurants, call taxis, etc...). During our stay, any questions I had, he responded quickly. He definitely made our experience in Athens that much better. Highly recommend!
