Stergios and Christina's apartment is large, bright, elegant and comfortable, and during cold February nights the heating kept us warm and snug. The district is not (sorry!) pretty, but it's lively and colourful, and very close to the archeological museum, the amazing central market and the cafés and restaurants of Exarchia and Kypseli. If you're prepared to walk a little, you can get everywhere central from here on foot. Otherwise, bus lanes run along the larger streets nearby. Christina's instructions for getting into the apartment (there's a key box) were clear, and she kept in contact to check up on us through our stay, though we never met. The apartment was extremely clean and well-equipped, with biscuits, sweets and basics for cooking kindly left for us in the kitchen. Double-glazing kept out traffic noises from the street below. We really enjoyed our stay.
