We stayed at Mandy's apartment for our first 3 nights in Greece, which was a wonderful home base for us. The apartment has the most wonderful airy layout—with wonderful flow between rooms—and nice decor. There are 2 balconies on which to marvel at the quiet neighborhood. Great for a glass of wine and to relax... The location is ideal, very close to all the sights in the Plaka neighborhood. It is across from a very small (and quiet) museum, and near several great restaurants. (There is also a gelato shop on the block, along with a great craft beer store.)
While we did not have the opportunity to meet the host, we did meet her kind neighbor downstairs who let us into the building and helped orient us.
I highly recommend staying at Mandy's place. We would happily come back!
