Communication with Mark is great- he's always super quick to respond. The apartment itself is fairly compact but more than big enough for a city break & the huge balcony with windows you can open right up means the space feels much larger. Mark met us to check in & gave us a map with suggestions marked on. He didn't really offer advice on what was in the immediate vicinity (cafes or supermarkets etc) but we should have asked. Maybe for late check-ins some milk for a morning tea or coffee would be good but again, just a small point. The apartment is within walking distance of a metro station, which is just 1 stop from Monasteraki. We also found that Uber was handy & cheap! All in all, we really enjoyed Athens & our stay in the apartment. Mark is a great host!
