My girlfriend and I stayed at Ranina's spacious, beautifully appointed apartment for five days in mid-May. The apartment was ideal -- extremely comfortable, with a huge balcony overlooking Athens that made it easy to relax after a day of sightseeing. It was also conveniently located, in an interesting part of the city not far from Gazi, Psirri, Thisio, and the historical center. Except for a handful of metro rides toward the end of our stay, we were able to walk everywhere. As for Ranina, she was the perfect host. Before we arrived, she answered all of our questions clearly and promptly, and even gave us a wealth of useful information about the Greek islands, since we were going to a couple of them before Athens. Her thoughtful advice really helped us plan our trip. Once we arrived, she picked us up at the metro station and took us to her place, where she showed us around before leaving us to our own devices. She also emailed us a map indicating where the nearest supermarket, pharmacy, etc., were. All of this was typical of her hospitality. I would absolutely recommend staying at her beautiful apartment -- you will not be disappointed.
