A great place to stay, centrally located, and beautifully decorated. A bargain right in the center of one of the most ancient and cultured cities of the world. Our host Maria welcomed us upon our arrival with a nice tour of the apartment and the neighborhood. She recommended some excellent nearby cafes and restaurants. Everything we tried was excellent. There is an amazing growth in new city eateries featuring Greek and Mediterranean cuisine in the downtown areas of Athens. She provided us a map of Athens and circled several local boutiques for my wife and tourist shops for me. The apartment is as large, clean and bright as shown in the photos. It is centrally located in Athens, very close to the Parthenon/Acropolis, museum and the entire ancient Agora and Theiseion site. Also the Plaka/Monastiraki and Ermou shopping areas. It is only a few blocks from the Metro/Subway stations of Syntagma and/or the Acropolis metro. We mostly walked around to visit and experience the most famous Greek monuments over our three-day weekend. I've already recommended the apartment to two couples back home, who will be traveling to Greece this summer.
