We spent eight days at Charis' apartment in the heart of the Plaka district of Athens. Temperatures were high in Athens at the time and the area was busy as it was the height of the tourist season, but our stay was was such fun and so comfortable because we had this amazing apartment which catered to our every need. It was clean, very spacious, fully air-conditioned and had all the necessary items for a happy stay from the corkscrew to hairdryer to details of local restaurants and areas to visit. It was so easy to access, 38 euro, set taxi fare from airport and once there everything you need is within a short walking distance. The locals were so friendly and greeted us daily and were happy to help with any queries. We loved the bustle of the area but at night with secure double glazed windows everything was whisper quiet. We were so impressed with the cleanliness of the apartment and the crisp clean linen with spare linen available. The kitchen was fully equipped and we were touched by the gift of cookies made by Charis' mother which we were greeted with on arrival. In the lead up to our stay all queries were answered promptly and as our daughter and her partner were joining us from another part of the world, Charis happily communicated with them and coordinated with their arrival too. I can't speak highly enough of this experience, there is nothing we could suggest to improve the service we received.
