This was probably the best place to stay in Athens.
Dimitrios gave us great and easy directions to get to his place & had a friend greet us with a coffee after our long travel. He then took our bags up to the apartment for us, which looks just as (if not better) than in the pictures!
The best part is the view of the Acropolis - absolutely amazing & a view you would probably pay hundreds for in a hotel room! He spent time to sit us down & show us where to go and what the best sites to see were. Then he took about an hour of his night to walk us around to show us around some & help us get acquainted!
He is always available for questions, and you are his top priority!
The location is unbeatable. You are in the center of everything, which made it possible to visit all the main attractions in about a day! No taxis were needed as you can get anywhere & everywhere by foot very easily!
We did one of his excursions where he took us to the temple of Poisioden, which meant driving all around the coast. But he took us to 3 other stops along the way for an all day event. This was for an additional cost - the amount seamed great considering we had a private driver and tour guide for a whole day and we are very happy we did it.
He then dropped us off at a museum, picked us up, drove us to a great restaurant, showed us what was the best by coming in with us, and showed us the way home!
Throughout our stay, Dimitrios was friendly, hospitable, and professional. He managed to be there for us and help us to see all we could and introduce us to authentic food that he gets with his friends, while also giving us all the privacy we needed. It felt as if we had the whole apartment to ourselves - but a friend who was close at hand.
I would definitely stay here if I ever came back to Athens!
