Location Location Location plus a marvelous view from the very large terrace. This place does A LOT RIGHT to make you feel at home in a BIG City capitol where there is a lot of movement like NYC. So all this needs to be kept in mind, and then ENJOY this extremely magical, historical, safe metropolis with old world charm. The apartment is on the top floor where the bottom levels are small shops and businesses (one floor I think designs clothing and wedding attire by appointment only). Also directly below there was some construction to upgrade an apartment or shop. All the shops throughout the PLAKA area close for the night around 9pm, and shut their shops w/metal gates like NYC style. This building is no different, and so after 9pm you need to open the little door in the middle of said metal gate. It is an adventure and worked like a charm; although at first it took some getting used to, as many things while traveling around the world do. They also arranged our to/from transportation with a very nice driver, John. Would stay again for sure, very nice people.
