Sean's place is cosy and comfortable and he is very welcoming and helpful. The apartment is an ideal location for visiting central Athens. The apartment is in the Plaka district, which is full of nice restaurants and artisan shops. This area is just a 10 minute walk from Syntagma square and all the main tourist attractions are within walking distance, just 5 - 15 minutes.
We hired a car at the airport, however we wouldn't recommend this. The traffic in Athens is very busy and parking isn't easy either.
