Location, location, location!! This is a beautiful home and in the best area! Every spot we wanted to see was nearby and Maria’s home was in the heart of it all! It made it easy to go somewhere, then stop in for a break before going to the next place. There was so much activity on the street to watch from the balcony as well, (however, if you are sensitive to noise while sleeping, if you go to bed early, then you may have trouble here). We slept nicely, as we are night time people and loved the view from the balcony. After the activity dies down, it is very quiet, long into the morning. Maria’s father, Aristotles, was very accommodating and welcomed us with such open arms! We couldn’t have found a better place to stay while in the heart of Athens.
