Acropolis walk apartment is certainly walkable to Athens sights but a little farther away than we realized. We generally found it took us 15 minutes to get to and from the Acropolis metro station. There were things we wanted to see which are farther away (in the area of Monistraki square) so we used the metro to get there. The apartment is very spacious, and yes, the patisserie across the street is exceptional. It made a good home base for us while in Athens. There are also restaurants in the neighborhood which are worth checking out, and Maria offers some recommendations for those. If you need maps, guidebooks, etc she has them all on site. A great stay in Athens!
