Miranda's apartment was perfectly located, a little out of the full hubbub of the tourist area but still a very short walk — about 15 minutes — to the acropolis entrance, and less than 10 to other sites. You can even see the acropolis from the street. The apartment was spacious, clean, and supplied with things for coffee — she even left us milk.
Miranda met us and showed us around, gave us maps marked with things in the neighborhood and numbers for a taxi and everything you could need. I also needed to leave for the airport at 4:30 am and she booked a taxi to pick me up then.
