A spacious, comfortable place in the perfect location to explore Athens. The apartment was clean and tidy and atmospheric with lots of interesting books and magazines with local tips. The location is superb, at the foot of the Acropolis -- a beautiful 7 minute walk to the main entrance. 10 minutes to Monastiraki station. Quiet, virtually car-free neighborhood, but many restaurants nearby, plus a non-touristy nightclub with traditional Greek music just down the street. There is a working fireplace! However the apartment is nicely heated, keeping us warm during the chilly November nights. There is a roof terrace with an amazing view of Athens. You can lie in bed and look up out the window at the lit Acropolis.
Niki was the most responsive Airbnb host we've ever had, answering questions instantly. She waited an hour for our arrival when our taxi was stuck in Black Friday traffic. The house was nicely stocked with coffee, drinks, and a delicious pound cake when we arrived.
The kitchen was basic, but fine for breakfast and you will probably be tempted to eat out all the time.
