George has an amazing eye for detail and has thought of everything for a traveler to come and stay at his place. Not only did he have an iron for your clothing, he had a flat-iron in the bathroom with the hairdryer! He was very accommodating in allowing us to park our bags and change at his place despite the housekeeper being there. He made me a delicious cup of coffee and taught me that after all these years it has been a little sugar (not the cream have been using for so long) that is what makes the coffee less bitter. He is very proud of Athens and has maps of everything which he will show you if you like. He was very informative and took our short stay (just half a day and a morning) into account to recommend the best way to see as much as possible. Some people have mentioned the neighborhood...it is shocking to see so much graffiti, but it is EVERYWHERE! I asked many locals about it and they all say the same thing. The neighborhood that George lives in feels incredibly safe, is very colorful (literally and figuratively) and really fun to explore. It is in the heart of everywhere you want to be and about a 40-minute drive from the airport and just minutes walk to many local Athens attractions and squares. George was the consummate host and I highly recommend his place. I will definitely return to see more of Athens and hopeful to stay at George's again.
