100% the reason to use Air B and B. It allows you to stay in unique apartments in the middle of great locations. We are very much into architecture so this unit was pretty cool to hang out in.
We were located right in Psyrri and used Rick Steve’s walking tour to explore. This location was close to everything including the central market and great shopping. For me it was great to be close to several vegan restaurants.
Just like the photos show, your view of the Acropolis is amazing at all hours of the day.
The unit is very secure with a very robust metal door.
Some tips: it can get pretty dark and the flooring is dark and has a step. So if you have a tendency to walk about at night (like to pee), use the extremely versatile lighting system to create some subtle night lighting.
It’s a hip neighborhood and you can hear some laughing and chatting at the cafes late at night. It’s not particularly annoying at all (and I can get pretty easily bothered by that kind of thing) but if you are really sensitive to that then have some earplugs at the bedside.
