We had the chance to stay here for a few days in July 18 and consider ourselves lucky to have done so. Haris & Vasiliki's place was as described, complete, clean and close to much that Athens has to offer. What cannot be described is the extra attention, hospitality and thoughtfulness they showed us. Haris collected us from our ride into the city center, welcomed us into the apartment with his nearly-famous chocolate cake (also advertised in other reviews!) and also took us to the rooftop terrace, where he gave us a 360-degree lecture on the history of Athens and the local landmarks. Plus a great restaurant tip for somewhere nearby. Quite a welcome.
We were then able to enjoy a few days in the city, not to mention the AMAZING view of the city from the rooftop terrace, which was more or less exclusive to us all week. A great way to feel the city, by night or day. A great bonus was being able to see the films being shown at the outdoor cinema next door, from the comfort of the terrace. It must be said you can slightly hear the sound of the films when in the apartment but it's not significant. Also important to mention was that as during this week the terrible forest fires started outside Athens and our following airbnb booking was affected, they were very supportive in helping us find alternatives.
Overall, a great value experience and Haris & Vasiliki are great ambassadors for Athens. We would love to go back again and experience their place in future.
