The only practical drawback to the Central Boutique Apartments on Romvis in Athens is the heavy steel and glass street level door that opens on to a long, narrow stairway that goes straight up to a low ceilinged landing above the storefront Juice Bar. Once you get up these stairs, there is a nice new elevator that takes you up to the apartments. It's as if there are two different buildings, one residential and one commercial.
The apartment we stayed in was a one bedroom with a small terrace facing a narrow courtyard on the back of the building. There was no street noise, very peaceful. Air conditioning in living and bedroom made it comfortable in hot weather. Kitchen and bath were impeccable, with a clothes washer/dryer in the bathroom, nice lighting throughout and huge storage armoir with drawers. Stepping out the front door onto the pedestrian side street, there is a Juice Bar in the building, and two very good restaurants next door.
