The apartment was as described. On arrival to the apartment, Maria's husband had been waiting for us. He provided many maps, patiently provided information on where to shop and eat. The apartment is close to several tourist sites in Athens. We bought items from the bakery everyday. They provided you the tools to make your own meals if you want to. We prepared our own meals after our tours which helped to save money. We were provided with a cellphone to use which was so nice of them. Our stay was great and we would book with Maria if we were to visit Athens again in the future.

My visit to Athens was enjoyable. Maria has assisted me to arrange a pick-up from the airport to the apartment. Danielo, the person who picked me up at the airport, was a wonderful person. I was so tired when I arrived, and I really didn’t want to figure out how to use the public transportation or taxi to reach the apartment. Danielo took me to the apartment, and it was clean (w/ Modern design) and has everything I needed. Maria has prepared me with a bottle of wine, which I needed after a few hours of journey from Vicenza to Milan to Athens. She even prepared a local cell-phone to use while in Athens (to contact her or Danielo); a very thoughtful of her to prepare me a local cell. Across the apartment, there is a bakery with great selection for breakfast. Also there are several small convenient stores around to buy fruits and restaurants. The neighborhood is quiet; it is away from tourists, but walk-able to the major sites, such as the Acropolis Museum, the Parthenon and other important sites. Only 10 minutes walk from the metro-station. Prior to the trip, we have communicated via emails ad texts, and she responded promptly. I would stay at her place again if I visit Athens (assuming her place would be available).
