We had a great stay in this cute apartment hosted by Steven. He responded very quickly when we had questions and communicated clearly. Steven gave us good advice and recommendations about the neighbourhood and the city.
The apartment is 10 minutes by car away from the heart of Athens! A cab is really cheap and 5 euro's or less for the ride. You can also take a walk to the edge of the city center, that will take about 20 minutes.
Around the corner of the apartment is a cute bakery and a nice supermarket for some lovely breakfast and bottled water.
Next to the little square which you see from the apartment is a diner place you can recognise from the orange walls and orange shirts and doner meat photo displayed. This really is a must try when you stay at the apartment. The food and rose wine is really cheap and it tastes the best! Great meatplatters with a lot of tzatziki and pita! We had dinner over there 3 times in 5 days haha! The waiter who tries to speak English is very friendly.
The apartment has enough towels, toilet paper and other home and household items. There is also an iron and ironing board and a hairdryer that is really good! The patio is really large and it is nice to hang out there for breakfast and an evening drink. The neighboorhood is pretty lively with kids and locals but if you keep the windows closed (which you should because the airconditioning works good) you barely hear anything.
The bathroom is a tad small but it was enough for us 3. The value for the price for this apartment is really good! Steven can also arrange the transfer from and to the airport for an acceptable fare.
We had a great time checking out the national archeological museum, the beach riviera busline, the acropolis and the Athens concert building. You should also visit the Psiri area and check out Tripadvisor for the best wine tasting place and best fish restaurant.
Thank you, Steven.
