The apartment location was perfect and Sofia was an amazing hostess.
I was pleased to find I could explore of inner city Athens on foot, all from the apartment. It’s only a 30 minute walk to Syntagma (centre of Athens). The walk takes you via the Modern Olympic Stadium and the Botanic Gardens, which are beautiful.
The nearest metro is an easy 10 minute easy walk away. Buses are at hand within a couple of minutes, as are food shops, café’s and any type of shop you need. Convenience plus!
Sofia maintains the warm, cosy apartment to a high standard. The balcony views over a traditional Greek garden. It was lovely seeing the trees fruiting and waking up listening to the birds.
On the kitchen table Sofia had left maps of inner Athens and the metro. I was grateful to have these. In general Sofia was extremely helpful, even before I arrived at the apartment. She was always available and went out of her way to assist me if needed.
Once again…great apartment and fantastic hostess. Thanks Sofia!
