Askipilou is a safe street though the pavements are in need of repair! Its 15 minutes walk downhill to the nearest metro station where you can buy a travelcard for the bus, tram and metro. You can select English on the machine. There are lots of bars and some takeaways a few minutes walk downhill from the apartment. The lift up to Jul's flat is very small and won't cope with large or heavy luggage. The view of the Acropolis is stunning. There is no lighting outside the door of the flat so you will need to switch on your phone's torch! Use the electric blinds instead of the roller blinds . All said this is a wonderfully situated flat, although the uphill walk may tire you out!
