Giorgos is an absolute gentleman who could not do enough to help us out. He was always available with tips and advice via WhatsApp. He advised us on local restaurants and some other cool places to eat we would never have known about otherwise. He checked in with us to make sure everything was ok advising on places to visit based on chats we had.
The apartment itself is a beautifully spacious 1960's abode with high ceilings and lots of original features. The furniture is also clearly original and really ads to the vibe. I was actually working while I was there and can advise that the place is perfect for this. There is strong WiFi, a monitor and a table to put it all on. A dedicated workspace which was very welcome. The TV has a Chromecast attached so you can watch Netflix etc. There is a piano should you be inclined to strike up a tune.
The bedroom has a nice mattress which was clearly a quality item and tons of storage space. Both the bedroom and the living room have great air conditioning units. The kitchen has everything you could need including a nice Nespresso machine.
Location wise it could not be better. About 5 mins by Metro to Syntagma or a short 15 mins walk. The street where the apartment is located has a couple of really nice places to eat and you are also not very far from the Hilton Athens.
The best part of the experience was Giorgos though. When he heard I was travelling due to some medical stuff for my wife he arranged some very thoughtful and touching things. The true spirit of AirBnB.
