Can't say enough about this apartment and your hosts Rania & Spiros. If you want to get a taste of local life in the historic neighborhood of Anafiotika nestled under the northern slope of the Acropolis with a view across Athens to Mt. Lycabettus then this is the place for you. This is the apartment above Rania's mother's home where Rania & Spiros (a close friend) grew up. Listen to their stories of how they used to climb the rocks and play in the caves of the north slope of Acropolis (before the fences were installed) and think of what an amazing childhood they experienced. Rania is also a very talented photographer and will likely have you pose for photos at her place for her personal scrapbook.

You have 2 bedrooms, a complete kitchen (but you will eat out every night anyway), a nice cozy living room, side balcony and of course the incomparable rooftop terrace where you are literally a stone's throw away from the north slope of the Acropolis. Spiros will pick you up at the airport and immediately give you an impromptu tour of Athens and environs. If you want (and I strongly recommend you do) Spiros is available to drive you to the outskirts of town on a day tour of local attractions. We chose Delphi but Spiros extended that tour with visits to several other very special places on the way that would not have occurred to us to visit. If you have the time to allocate a day and would really like to get a taste of Greece then I would say to put your trust in Spiros to choose the itinerary for you and take you on his choice of sites to visit. You will not regret it.
