What a beautiful, light and spacious apartment! My sister, friend and I spent 9 days here and had the most wonderful time. Maria met us at the apartment building with a big smile on her face greeting us like old friends, despite of the fact that we arrived almost an hour late because of unexpected delays at the airport. The apartment felt so warm and welcoming - even better than the photographs led me to expect, and had everything we would need. It was extremely clean and comfortable, and the balconies in both the living room and the bedroom were especially delightful. Maria generously provided us with water, fruits, cereal, eggs and other healthy snacks, and made sure that the bathroom and kitchen had everything we needed. The apartment is in a quiet safe neighborhood near a metro station (Larissa Station), by which you can easily access all of Athens' hot spots. We had access to a pharmacy, a crepe house/cafe, a restaurant, a hair salon and a super market literally a few steps from the apartment building. We were also pleasantly surprised to experience a "Laiki" Farmers' Market set up in the neighbourhood during our stay- I think it was either a Tuesday or a Wednesday. The only downside to the apartment was that it had no washing machine, but a laundry mat is located near the building, so that did not cause us much inconvenience. We truly had a good time and will treasure the memories of our time in Athens. I highly recommend Maria and her beautiful apartment!
