At first, the area felt a little unsafe. But actually it was perfectly hipster enough to our liking. Great restaurants and cafes nearby, the area was cool to explore. An awesome local restaurant we checked out nearby - Mykinón Gonía is a must. The walk to Plaka from here was an easy 20 mins with lots of things to see and do on the way. Montastiraki square is about 15 min walk which felt like nothing with a whole heap of antique shops to gawk at on the way.
Stratos’s place was equiped with all the necessary amenities for our 3 night stay. Washer was very handy as well as multiple keys, air conditioning and lift to get to the third floor. It was my friend an I who stayed but you could easily fit 4-5 people in the apartment. The view of the acropolis/Parthenon from the balcony was amazing - good for nights where you want to chill out with a couple of beers and have your own private view. Stratos also included a little guide which included suggested restaurants and amenities that travellers often ask for. In addition to this, he was so nice and easily contactable for any questions I had and even offered pick ups and drop offs to the port for a fair price. I would recommend the pick up/drop of service because it’s so convenient and saves the hassle of public transport when. You are carrying all your luggage. Thank you Stratos - we loved staying at your place and would definitely stay again!
