Absolutely beautiful place for 2, complete with all the amenities you might need. The heater is amazing during winter seasons, and the bed’s comfortable.
The only downside is that the building doesn’t have a lift, for you to bring up your luggages. Fortunately for us, Sokol’s cousin was there to help. A Very big thank you to him for helping us with the luggages (ours was pretty darn huge) - esp the fact that he had to bring it up 3 levels. Thank you so much again! He also comes around fast, should you inform Sokol of any issues. Amazing communication from the host. Sokol & his wife even came to meet us and bid us goodbye when we were leaving.
The apartment is relatively close to the main attractions so you can choose to walk there i.e 10 mins to the flea market, more for acropolis. You can’t view acropolis from the apartment balcony but you can view it from the rooftop. We didn’t get to do that at night cause it was pretty freezing, but the view during the day was pretty nice too. The building’s still getting done, so i think the rooftop would be much more comfortable once all the renovation has come through.
There are also lots of shops for you to explore and head into. The immediate area is a little like china town, with quite a number of shops selling clothes. Grocery shops are also just a walking distance, if you don’t want to head into the supermarket, there are small grocery shops for you to buy from.
Will definitely head over to Sokol’s should i ever come back to Athens.
