Our family of 3 had the pleasure of staying at Sokol's apartment for a week over the Christmas holiday. The apartment was as advertised and pictured, was very clean and as you'll read in other reviews, the deck was the icing on the cake. A great view of the accropolis and fantastic spot to sit and share a glass of wine after a day of exploring Athens.
As others have said, the neighbourhood may look a bit rough to some, but we felt it was similar to a lot of what we saw in Athens. Honestly, we felt totally safe the whole time, both day and night. The location was reasonably close to many metro stations (5-15 minute walk), including a direct ride to and from the airport. Also, most of the sites on our list were within walking distance, so we barely even ride the metro anyway.
Sokol was in touch with us regularly, and very responsive to any questions we had. Also with it being Christmas, he and his wife had even set up a small Christmas tree and left a small gift for my daughter, which she was thrilled with. We really couldn't have asked for anything more. Thanks for a great stay Sokol!
