Giannis is an example of why people love Airbnb. He is a kind, thoughtful, and very helpful gentleman, and an attentive host who will make sure that you are comfortable and feel at home. He enjoys sharing his extensive knowledge of Greek architecture, history, culture, and language. He answered my questions about the sites/cities which helped with trip planning, provided maps and other printed information, and showed me around the neighbourhood. He picked me up from the airport because there was a transportation strike on my arrival date – truly exceptional and a big comfort! He introduced me to Greek specialities such as the Greek mountain tea, a Raki and honey drink, and some Greek home cooking. The home is clean and visually interesting with his great art and a cheery ambiance. All the essentials are provided. Sleeping is very easy because there is no traffic noise at all, and it is dark with the shutters closed. The home is perfectly positioned on a quiet street and near to a large park area called Filopappou hill where I could enjoy quiet nature and amazing views of the entire city. I’m really amazed by how many important archeological sites there are in Athens and all of Greece. I enjoy walking and could walk to many archeological sites, cultural sites, trendy dining areas, shopping areas, dancing areas, and pedestrian walkways. The area views are also magnificent at night with breathtaking archeological sites lit up. I was comfortable walking alone even later into the night. The metro and the pick up point for my day and multi-day tours to see other cities was also conveniently just a short walk away. It was a pleasure meeting Giannis’ friends and family - all really nice people - and I feel like we are friends. Absolutely outstanding. If you visit Athens, this is THE place to make your home away from home.
