To anyone considering this apartment, I would tell you not to look anywhere else. The apartment is centrally located and close to everything and most major tourist attractions in Athens. This made it very easy to get around the city and stopover at times to get some rest and reenergize before we would head back out to continue exploring more and more of Athens. The apartment is well equipped with a full-size fridge, stove, coffee maker, kitchen utensils, hairdryer, …. The apartment is nicely furnished with beautiful tasteful colors. The hosts are amazing and very helpful in providing tips about the apartment and surroundings in the form of a little booklet, with recommendations for supermarket, restaurants, bars, bakeries….. The hosts of this Airbnb were great to deal with, although we regrettably did not get to meet in person as they were on vacation themselves during our stay. Still the hosts were very gracious with answering our various questions while on vacation and helping us setup multiple Airport to Athens transfers back and forth. I would highly recommend doing that, as you will save time by not having to wait in line outside the terminal for your turn for a taxi. Antonios the taxi driver was amazing. All of us loved him and looked forward to having him take us back and forth from the airport. He is such a genuine nice guy, made us feel like we have known him for a long time. In some reviews there is mention of noise from the restaurants/bars below the apartment. For us that was not an issue at all. The double-sided windows with monoblock eliminate 95% of the noise. On weekend days the level of activity in the restaurants is naturally increased so you get slightly more noise, but again for us that was not an issue at all. I am a light sleeper myself and I had no issues with that whatsoever. I had read the reviews mentioning the noise beforehand but even if that was going to be an issue, I did not care because I wanted to be in the center of it all, and staying in an apartment on a lively street is part of the experience I was looking for on my vacation. All in all, you will love this apartment. Next time we are in Athens, we will not think twice about booking our stay in this wonderful apartment with this amazing host.
Voula and Vanessa, thank you for everything and for you contributing to making our stay in Athens a very memorable one.
