This is our first experience with airbnb and we could not have been more satisfied with our experience. Des was the perfect host, going out of her way to help us, even doing our laundry! We were not expecting this from an airbnb host. Her charming historical house is ideally located near every major attraction in Athens. Des was extremely helpful in suggesting places to eat, shop and places to visit. We particularly enjoyed the discussions we had with Des and her father. In summary, if you are looking for a quiet, clean, tastefully decorated place to stay, we would highly recommend staying in the Plaka with Des.
