Listen. If you are looking for a luxury apartment in Athens or wanting a place to spend an extended amount of time, this probably isn't it for you. But, if you are on a tight budget and a convenient location is your priority this place is great. It is within walking distance of all the tourist attractions. Its near places to shop and eat. The view is beautiful, but the balcony is shared which can be awkward depending on who else is staying there. Everything has locks on it so you and your personal items will be safe. We had some problems with mosquitoes on the balcony even in November, but the host did provide a repellent for the room. The furniture was sparse and the beds were not very comfortable but everything was kept clean. The host was very accommodating and gave us a map and a list of local tips of things to do and places to eat in the area. Overall, we had a good experience but it may not be for everyone.
