I loved my stay with Giannis, would love to come back, and would recommend his place to all! I was a mess at check-in — my ferry was 30 minutes late, and then I lost my phone and couldn’t message Giannis to announce my arrival at the dock as we’d planned, but when I finally did (tearful and embarrassed) manage to make contact an hour later, he was very kind and gracious rather than angry, came to Thissio station to walk me to his place, carried my suitcase and made me a delicious smoothie, helped me locate my phone, and even offered to print my boarding pass. The bed was quite firm but comfortable, the room and private bathroom were extremely clean and just as pictured, and there was a curtain that can be used to separate the room and bathroom from the rest of the house for additional privacy (there are also locks on both doors, which I didn’t use). This was my first time staying in a house without any women, but I felt very comfortable and safe with Giannis, and he was a wonderful conversationalist as well (we chatted about Greek etymology, the economy, etc). The apartment is a 12 minute walk from Thissio station and is thus fairly central to all the sights, but I would note that while the area around Thissio is lively, the last half of the walk is entirely residential and/or a park, without any shops/bars/etc, so it‘s desolate at night (but also means the house is very quiet so it’s easy to sleep). I might have been anxious if I’d walked back after 10 PM alone, but I never tried it. Lastly, two random things also worth noting: 1) there’s a super friendly, vaccinated pet cat that lives outdoors only and will greet you whenever you come in or out the gate (kind of a bonus for me because I like cats but am allergic to them indoors), and 2) toilet paper goes in the bin rather than the toilet (this was the case in all of the Greek Airbnbs I stayed in, actually).
