This was the most comfortable vacation stay I've ever had.

The location is ideal, especially if you're visiting Athens for the first time. It was also great for me that I usually go out in the center, when I'm there. It's literally 2 minutes walk from the Acropolis metro station and not more than 8 minutes to the Acropolis museum entrance. It's next to the pedestrian road that runs at the front of the acropolis rock, which, because of the Acropoplis, I find one of the most beautiful pedestrianized roads in Europe.

The apartment is fantastic. It's in an 1930's block of flats, but it's freshly painted with the kitchen and bathroom being entirely new. That is the best combination, as it has the high ceilings of older buildings but also everything looks new. The rooms are quite spacious and very nicely furnished. More importantly, it was spotlessly clean.

Maggie was an amazing host. She had amazing home made traditional Greek Christmas sweets and home made marmalade waiting for us in the flat, as well as a bottle of very nice Greek wine! She was very polite with us and both proactively asked whether we need anything and was responding to our messages timely through airbnb. She has even assembled a list of events happening in December in Athens. There's no chance you can find anything close to this kind of service in any hotel. Definitely not anyone that enjoys hosting people as much.

This was my first experience with an airbnb booking and I'm going to use the service whenever I have the chance when I travel. As for Athens that I travel to at least once a year, I will always check if Maggie's flat is available first before considering anything else.

If you're thinking of booking it, just go for it. It's just amazing.
