Penny's place in Athens was perfect for our 2-day trip. It's close enough to the Acropolis without feeling touristy at all, so it gives a nice taste of local life. The neighborhood has cute bars and restaurants including two breweries we happened upon (Blame the Sun and Strange Brew). The place itself is tastefully decorated and everything worked. Penny was extremely attentive and helped us with suggestions, directions, and even booked our taxi to the airport.
