we and our friends (six in total) stayed two nights in Athens at Eleni's place before traveling to the islands. The place is really beautiful and artistic, great kitchen and facility's, great balcony with a view just as promised. Eleni was absolutely lovely and she made us feel right at home, gave us a lot of tips and recommendations for easy transportation. The neighborhood has a great vibes, with all kinds of hip bars around. We had such a great time in her place that we booked the place in advance for the way back from the islands!
