I’ll tell you the good and the bad. This place is in the worst neighborhood in Athens. The taxi driver didn’t even want to go there and as soon as I arrived I saw why. It was upsetting and I did not feel safe as a woman on my own (though I lived in Brooklyn, NYC for 10 years) and I never walked at night. It’s pretty close to the city center as you can see on the map, but…at what cost? I think this is why it’s a good deal.
The apartment itself is very nice on the inside, I really liked it, it’s spacious enough, cute, I love the bedroom, and it’s the best (longest lasting) hot water I’ve had in 2 months traveling Greece.
The washing machine will flood the bathroom if you don’t put the grey tube in the shower, so do that (I didn’t know, hopefully they add it to the notes). The balcony is nice but it is directly over the school yard so you hear children screaming all day amplified. For me it was not restful.
They did let me have a late check out, which I appreciated, and the communication was good. Easy to check in and out with a lockbox and nice that there’s an elevator in the building for luggage, you can also easily get take out with efood. So the choice is yours! It was an experience…thank you to the hosts. 🙏🏼
