Our time in Athens has been the best so far! A lot of it thanks to the hospitality of Maria. She is the kindest person I have ever met!! She gave us perfect directions from the airport (very easy by metro) and had the apartment prepared for us when we arrived. Maria bought us water, fruit, and other things to eat, as well as had everything we needed for the bathroom. The apartment is in a quiet neighborhood near a metro station. All of the things you want to see in Athens are easily accessible from the apartment using the metro.
Maria was a wonderful host and I would recommend staying with her to anyone!
