You cannot ask for better hosts than Stefano and Fotini. They sent me a great deal of very good tips on places to eat and drink, what to do, and what to see. Not only did they send that via email before arrival but they provide a laminated map and linked information in the apartment itself, so that right from the moment you arrive, you know where to buy milk and bread, find a coffee and a cake, or go for souvlaki! They also include useful information about where to find the nearest pharmacy, bakery, supermarket and so on. I felt immediately at ease and was also delighted to even receive a thoughtful welcome treat when I arrived ( I won't spoil the surprise!). Stefano and Fotini's apartment is very stylish and homely, decked out with mod cons. I went with one other friend and it is the perfect space for couples and small groups. It is located in a quiet and friendly street, which is yet only 10 minutes' walk from the Acropolis and 20-30 mins' walk from the city centre. You get the best of both worlds, close enough to enjoy the main sites of Athens yet far enough away to unwind and enjoy a glass of wine on the balcony. I didn;t need to take the metro or bus once, although that is an easy option for those that would prefer to. I highly recommend both the place and the delightful hosts and would stay here again.
