The apartment is beautiful! located in the heart of downtown Athens with lovely shops, hotels, cafes and delicious restaurants to choose from. You are walking distance away from everything you need. The apartment has a washer machine in case you need to wash your clothes. Your hostess Alex is outstanding!! He goes out of way to ensure you have everything you need or questions you might have. I mistakenly left my purse on the bus tour and it was late Alex was happy to meet me at 11pm at night with a new key to enter the apartment. Glady, the next day the bus tour guy return my pursue with everything in it. With that being said, Athens is safe and a beautiful place.
