The drive into the city from the airport may not really be part of the review, but it really was the anticipation building as we saw how much more populated and lively the atmosphere became. When we finally arrived and realized it was a mostly a pedestrian street upon which the apartment was physically located we were thrilled.
It was lively, full of cafes and restaurants, and just ripe for exploration.
It was very nice to have an old fashioned elevator to the top floor where the apartment was located to hoist our luggage and for ourselves coming and going.
The apartment was clean with excellent views at all levels of the Parthenon. It is true that there are stairs to negotiate for luggage and yourselves. The best view is the smallest bedroom’s veranda, and this is the very top. It also caught the breezes well even though there was an air conditioner that cooled the space very effectively.
We didn’t use the kitchenette although it was reasonably stocked and there was a mini fridge we didn’t use either.
It was easy to keep the place very clean and leave it tidy and this too was a nice feature.
There is no shower curtain or door and so splash will happen but the design of the bathrooms accommodates this. All in all an excellent choice for beginning our Grecian journey.
