In summary: the Loft is incredible and is highly recommended.

Location, Location, Location - The loft is perfectly suited for travels to Athens as we were in an ideal location. We could easily walk to most sites (Acropolis, Plaka, Ancient Agora). Even Syntagma square and the far side of the Acropolis were not too distant. Transportation to other parts of the city was exceptionally easy with the Metro super close ..less than 5 minutes. Getting to the loft was exceptionally easy via the metro.

Hosts: Sandy took care of all our needs. She started our trip off with a tour of the neighborhood and of course the loft. She made sure we could get around and insured we could make it back to the loft. She even assisted after I left with a phone call to the rental car agency and travel tips for Santorini. Excellent.

Loft: The loft is very well appointed. The living room is quite large and comfortable...we especially enjoyed opening both sliding doors and enjoying the evening breeze. The beds were fine and rooms as described. Yes that is a view of the Parthenon from the roof.

Security: There is grafiti in the neighborhood which initially gave some concern. I left with absolutely no concern other than what one would experience in any large city. The neighborhood is delightful.

Food: Within feet you will find great restaurants. The area felt great with small restaurants and bars. No need to travel more than 100 yards for anything you might need.

Bars: Beer Time is very close and had fantastic beers, A for Athens is just before Monistaraki square that has exceptional vies of the square and the Parthenon (do expect to pay a bit more as this is a chic bar). Other options.

Shopping: Famous Sandal maker extremely close. Flea market is right there at Monistaraki square. Many other options.

There are some trivial issues as with any house. Overall this was an exceptional loft due to the location, accommodations, and hosts.

Loved IT!!!
