We are full-time travelers and spent a month at Panos's place with our two small dogs. We loved the amount of space and that you feel like you're at home and not a rental. There is another balcony to the rear which makes the apartment very sunny, our dogs could lay out in the sun even in January. Panos definitely deserves his 5 stars for communication, he responds quickly & thoroughly, walked us through the apartment, gave us tons of information on Athens...he's an incredibly nice guy. His mother lives around the corner so if you have an urgent need she can help immediately. Because we were there for a month we had the chance to chat with her, now we know why he's such a nice guy. The apartment is perfect for someone who wants to experience real Athens but also be close enough to conveniently visit the tourist sights, whether in the city or along the coast.
Other items:
Panos has every TV series ever made and if that's not enough, you can also watch Netflix.
For those with a car, the parking spot is around the corner, is off the street and under cover. We have a large vehicle and it fit perfectly.
We loved the street market on Saturday, there's a fish section that looked diverse (we don't eat meat so only glanced at) and fell in love with the vegetables. The produce was some of the freshest and largest we've seen at very low prices. There is a Friday market in the opposite direction, we didn't shop at it so I don't know how large it is. There are bakeries, supermarkets, cafes - everything you need is close by.
