My husband and I stay at Maria's place for a couple of days. We did not meet with Maria in person, but there was no problem communicating with her via Airbnb messages, or through the local cell phone she left for us.

Maria's neighbor Danilo lived across the hall from us, who picked us up at the airport and charged the flat fee that a taxi would charge for a ride from the airport to downtown (38 euro day time). Danilo showed us the apartment and was available to answer any questions we had.

There are some restaurants and bars down the road and a great bakery across the street. A small supermarket could be reached by walking for 5 mins. Averagely 15 mins walking from the Acropolis and 25 mins from the Parliament and city center. We always enjoy walking and was not sure about the bus and the metro. We did take taxi for several times, which only costs around 5 euro from downtown to the apartment.

The apartment was well equipped and pretty new and clean. The pictures are honest reflections of the apartment. We found basic cooking supplies and table wares in the kitchen, and shampoo and body wash in the bathroom. The apartment sits by the street that sometimes could be noisy, but the shutters are literally sound and light proofing. We had no problem sleep in with all the shutters closed.

Great stay overall!
