Myrsini’s apartment is in a great location. It’s in a non touristy family area of Athens so you really feel as if you are part of the local lifestyle.
The apartment is nicely decorated, has all you will need, lounge, one bedroom and a nice balcony with chairs and a table and lots of plants. And A/C 👍
The apartment is located a five minute walk from the Metro and so it’s super easy to get to all the main attractions.
It costs €1.40 per person per trip and is three metro stations from the Parthenon and Plaka village.
There are two super local restaurants the fish restaurant being 10m from the front door and the food was excellent. He has been in operation since 1968 ! The meat and kebab restaurant being 75m from the front door is high up on the Trip Advisor ratings and is excellent ( we ate there twice ) and weren’t disappointed.
The Bread Factory which is awesome and open 20 hours a day is beside the Metro.
There is an excellent local bakery round the corner as well
The local supermarket is 200m away and is really well stocked with super friendly staff.
And last but not least just round the corner is a little street kiosk that sells ice cold beers at €1.30 for a 500ml beer and you can sit on his plastic seat and drink your beer and watch the world go by 👍
We absolutely loved the apartment and the area and we felt like locals.
Myrsini is one of the best AirBnB hosts we have had the pleasure to meet.
Beyond helpful and her hospitality is outstanding.
We wouldn’t hesitate to stay again when we are in Athens.
