Pros: The place is decorated with a nice modern style. The place was very clean. Bed is extremely comfortable. Communication with the host was great. It is next to the subway.
Cons:
*Our check in wasn't smooth. There's no actual address number on the building, so we weren't quite sure where the building was. After the taxi gave up driving us up and down the streets, we walked ourselves trying to figure things out before contacting the host, which is when they sent us an image of the building confirming the location. Check in with the code went smoothly.
*When we arrived, there wasn't any toilet tissue, so we used Kleenex until the host dropped off toilet tissue later in the day.
*What The Place Offers section states that there is a dryer, but there isn't. It was an inconvenience after a week of exploring Greece.
*The place is on a very busy street. In fact, the train/railroad is about 20 metres from the suite. You can hear and feel the train throughout the day, including the horn that alerts pedestrians each time it is arriving.
*The "view" is not of a park, but of the railroad, trains and low-income looking apartments.
*There's two clubs, Ku De Ta and Story Night Club, directly across the street that are open until 4am. Music is blaring.
*The building directly next door is under major construction. The next morning, shortly after 7am, we were awaken by hammering and loud talking. We thought it was someone in the hallway, but discovered it was the building next to the suite. The back door to the suite over looks the building under construction, so you can see and hear everything. The building is under new construction and looks like it will be under construction for the next year or two, or more.
*Host notified us on the day of our arrival that the suite is on a noisy street and ear plugs were provided, although we searched all the drawers and didn't find any. This type of information would be useful for people before they have booked.
*Only two bath towels were provided. We experienced this during our last Athens airbnb too and don't quite understand the logic behind it. 2 people, 2 towels, for 2 nights. The weather at almost 40c, multiple showers are needed to wash the afternoon sweat off, and before our evening outing, and after evening outing to wash the sweat and cigarette smoke off before getting into bed, and of course, the morning shower. A minimum of at least two sets of sets of towels should suffice. We really don't like leaving cons, but we think it is important that each prospect knows what they are agreeing to. We expected some city noise and also welcomed it, but we found this location to be excessive with the added train and construction. Just be transparent and it will increase the chance of your guests walking away with a positive experience.
