The ancient Greeks developed the first written law code in Europe. Laws covering many aspects of daily life including hospitable conduct, to family, friends, and neighbors, but more importantly for the traveler, strangers.
These ancient ideals still live within the people of Greece and none more so than Doros.
This was my third visit to Athens and my third stay at Doros' apartment. The warmth of the welcome, the care taken to ensure your comfort during your stay, and the insight Doros is more than happy to provide about his city make this an ideal location to base your discovery of Athens.
The apartment as always was clean, tidy, and with all the facilities I could possibly need. Doros is constantly endeavoring to improve the comfort of guest. This year when I arrived for my second stay he had installed air-conditioning which I'm sure guests from cooler climates would appreciate. After a 2 week trip to Crete I returned to discover that he had made other changes to the apartment in my absence. I think these changes are all in keeping with that ancient philosophy of hospitality, born in Greece and well and truly alive in Doros.
