I had read lots of positive reviews for Ira's apartment and that was a main consideration in choosing to stay there. Having been there for a few days, I can totally vouch for her professionalism. Our stay was impeccable - The apartment looks exactly as seen in the pictures, it's tastefully decorated, there are all types of amenities available, the place is sparkling clean. Plus Ira was always super responsive in answering all my questions, and provided useful suggestions all throughout our trip.
Plaka and other central tourist attractions can be easily accessed over M3 metro train (12-15 min walk to station) , or taxi which will cost €5-7
Highly recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in Athens with family.
