Aris flat is very cut, extremely central (two min from Monastiraki metro station) and so private! Apart from the hosts I never met anybody else on the stairs or lift. I really enjoyed that! Most times I left the flat keys outside the door, such was the safeness I felt. Renata welcomed me with a warm smile and easiness much appreciated. So kind and friendly that made me feel immediatly comfortable. The flat had everything one could need for a confortable and practical stay: fruit, bread, butter, jam, water in the fridge and coffee and tea, coffee machine and kettle on the table. What a superbe touch! Loads of info about Athens, maps, books. Aris was very quick to respond to any question, and that is a great added bonus.
The flat is situaded in a bars area with so much night and day life but the noise doesn't get upstairs due to excellent windows. The quietness of the flat has really puzzled and delighted me because Athens is an extremely busy place. It was always a relief to ge back to tranquility after walking miles around Athens!
There is also a spacious balcony overlooking the roofs of Athens, where we can sit, relax and wacht the sunset.
Athens is an amazingly fun place to be, and certainly has surprised me a lot! The Parthenon is a magic site! Couldn't get enough of it! The Greek people are fabulous, so hospitable! I will not tick Athens off my travel list, nor Aris place. Definitly a place to go back!
Thank you so much, Renata and Aris! You are 6 stars hosts!
