I believe we were among the first people to stay here and it served as a great home away from home. The apartment itself is brand new with very high quality furnishings that will appeal to anyone who likes a modern, minimal design aesthetic. As for the location, it was as good as advertised. The apartment is in the high-end Kolonaki neighborhood so it feels very safe, and there are plenty of bars, restaurants, and museums just minutes away. It's also about 2 or 3 blocks from the central square and Parliament building where the changing of the guard ceremony takes place. As for the Plaka area and Acropolis, that was probably about 20 minutes away by foot, but through all of the nicest parts of central Athens, so it worked out great for our short stay.
