Not just perfect location; the perfect apartment!!!
Impeccably located in the bustling center of Plaka, on Adrianou street, where all the buzzing tourist places and restaurants are, you would hardly notice it when you go to sleep. The three double rooms are in the back of the flat and you would not hear any of the buzz, even if you slept with the windows open.
Now, if you do want to go out, there will be shops and people around, 100% safe, even past midnight right outside the building door. You walk down the two flights of stairs or take the elevator, open the front door and there you are, next door to gelato, drinks, paraphernalia, or a Greek taverna. Three blocks away from the Hadrian's library, four from the Ermou shopping thoroughfare and four away from Byron's favorite place, you can walk around at leisure...
...or you can take it in from your own terrace overlooking the Acropolis (the backside of the Parthenon), on comfortable armchairs and a large coffee table suitable for dinner or breakfast alike. The terrace has an awning that is handy in the afternoon sun, too.
Inside, the flat is very spacious. The three bedrooms are served by two full bathrooms (with shower) and a toilet. They all have spacious cupboards and air conditioning, which is very handy in the summer. They all sport window doors opening to a backside balcony overlooking a private garden area (not accessible), full of shade. The common area consists of a large living room with comfortable sofa and armchairs facing a large TV; connected to an open dining area and the integrated kitchen, with a large countertop. For a family or group of friends, it is a perfect combination to spend time together, eating, watching TV, preparing the meal and watching TV. This large integrated room has four windows accessing the large front terrace.
The kitchen is very well equipped: fridge, freezer, oven, gas rings and microwave and all the utensils you typically need to make a holiday apartment feel like home. WIFI connection was very good; we used it for working, studying and watching TV streaming simultaneously, without any problem.
The apartment has private laundry (washer and drier) facilities in the basement and is provided with cloth racks and laundry baskets to make the process more effective.
The building is very quiet; only 3 other apartments.
We spent quite a few days and would highly recommend it for families and groups of friends
