We had excellent experience during this visits. We come to Athens every winter and usually stay in the Plaka since we like to spend the time there and go to Greek music taverns and clubs.
This time we chose George's apartment in Kolonaky, and found it to be the best location - the most pleasant neighborhood of Athens - small streets with many small interesting shops and orchard trees. Kolonaky square and Skoufa street with modern coffee shops bars and restaurants, busy and vivid day and night.
Short and pleasant walking to the more commercial parts of the city - Ermou pedestrian street, and to the Plaka, the flea market and the busy Athenas street.
The apartment is 2 quit large bedrooms + a living room, fully equipped with most modern kitchen, accessories for cocktail lovers and for coffee lovers. A deli shop is just across the street..
We were glad to find a very clean apartment, fridge, toilets and bath, many clean towels and bedclothes and beautiful paintings on the walls .
The apartment is on the 2nd floor, in a quite aristocratic residential building, with compact elevator for the suitcases.
Separate modern air-condition for each room were very efficient for the heating we needed (weather was very comfortable in this time of the year) and lots of wardrobes space.
We landed in the morning and came straight to the flat, and our flight back was in the evening. We appreciate very much the flexibility in checking in and out that was offered to us.
We called George on the phone only upon arrival and on checkout, and the answer was prompt and polite.
To summarize – excellent apartment and location.
