Although the road outside looked a bit sketchy initially, we felt very safe our entire time there. The apartment itself is absolutely gorgeous in design and style. Easily sleeps 8 adults with more showers than most other apartments in the area. Kitchen is well supplied. Lots of room to spread out on the outside deck but very noisy due to traffic. The location is perfectly ideal! We walked to local cafes and grocery store for supplies. Also walked to all main sites - Acropolis, Ancient Agora, Plaka, Acropolis museum.... The hosts were great about setting up transportation from the airport to the apartment. Our only negative to report was that the check out time is quite early (10 am) and the hosts were unwilling to let us store our luggage anywhere for 2-3 hours. Thus, just be aware of the times and plan accordingly.
