Anna's place was the perfect retreat for my teenage daughter and me during our 10-day stay in Athens. The apartment is in a secure building about 3 short metro stops from Syntagma Square and you can buy a 5-day Athens metro card for 9 euros and use it to get around town really efficiently (the metro station is a 5-minute walk away.) The apartment was super clean and Anna's housekeeper, Maria, gave us tips on where to shop and eat, etc. The balcony is a wonderful place to have coffee in the morning before you take off for your day. On Wednesdays, there's a 6-block long farmer's market on the next street and it's the perfect place to pick up some produce or locally made foodstuffs. I noticed that some reviewers commented about the neighborhood and I was a bit concerned when we arrived. However, it's a perfectly safe and vibrant working-class neighborhood. We would definitely stay here again.
