This apartment is quite spacious and has a great location, within walking distance of most of the sights of Athens. However, there were some problems with the unit.
When we arrived, the unit was *very* hot, well above 30C, with the air conditioners not running. It took 24 hours before the unit was comfortable, so we had trouble sleeping the first night. The unit in one of the bedrooms was particularly weak, and couldn't get the temperature down in that one room. During hot weather, the host should ensure that the air conditioners are started before arrival.
The unit also was more run-down than it appears in the photos, and not as clean as one would hope. We spotted a cockroach in the shared bathroom once.
The wifi was *very* slow. I measured 13Mbs down and 0.75Mbs up. Trying to upload photos to the cloud took a long time, for example, and even just ordinary browsing was annoyingly slow.
Check-in is done without the host, by entering a code in a lock box. Instructions were provided, but a few more details would be helpful. We arrived at night, and the hallways were dark, so some advice about the light switches would help. (We rang a doorbell by accident while trying various buttons.) An explanation of how to unlock the door would be good as well.
To use the hot water, you need to remember to turn on a breaker 40-50 minutes ahead of time. Then you are asked to turn it off afterwards. This is a bit annoying.
The kitchen is small and not really set-up as a full kitchen. For example, there is no microwave, and not much space to dry dishes.
When we made the booking, the host offered to arrange a ride from the airport for €45, but when it came time to make the arrangements, the price was €75. Needless to say, we made a booking with another service, which was €47.
The location and size are great, and if the other issues were dealt with, I would highly recommend this place.
