My requirements: Old day house with modern creature comfort. Away from tourist crowd. Walking distance to food and Acropolis and Museum. Simple cooking when laziness sets in. Fridge to chill beer and wine. Near to market for groceries. No extra frills that I do not need (swimming pool, reception etc)
Verdict: All above met
Check in/ Check out: Simple. Direct. Some walk if you have luggage. We requested for suggestion for airport transfer. They gave detailed explanation and we chosed the public bus from Airport to Syntagma Sq (from there 8 minutes walk to Airbnb unit). We chose the bus station cause its exactly outside the Athens Airport arrival hall, then we alight at the last stop.
Location: Near to Acropolis, Acropolis Museum, Street food and Bretto! (the nicest oldest distillery in Athens). We walked to everywhere without any public transport.
The House: All creature comfort included in high quality. Comfy king size bed, Aircon, hot water and shower, fridge, an extra bed that can cater for 3rd person. But we use it as day bed since we only had 2. Big place enough for 3 adult although we were only 2 person. Secure building with safe deposit like doors. Safe area just a street parallel to popular tourist street for the occasional easy food or drink but quiet enough to sleep in to rest the tired feet. Ouh btw, Lito was kind enough to provide home made local cookies, we ate all of them. Yumzzz
Fantastic homie and kitchen design. A nice place to get refreshed and chill out.
