The apartment is brand new and perfectly clean! Very spacious, and comfortable for our family of four. Mary and her team were great with communication, and had many items on-hand to make the stay convenient - even a blow dryer and flat iron.
The location was great for our purposes - we wanted to be able to walk everywhere and avoid a car. We walked to the Acropolis (15 min), Plaka (20 min), National Gardens (20-25 min). The neighborhood definitely has a local feeling, with lots of neighborhood restaurants and cafes within a block or two! Not touristy at all. There is quite a bit of graffiti nearby though, and initially we questioned if it was a safe spot to walk at night; but once we ventured out at night we saw that the area is full of people and nightlife, and great to be out and about in.
