Sadly, I never got a chance to meet the host, but the guide to the apartment and local amenities made me feel very welcome. The apartment is located in an exciting and vibrant area that's central enough to visit all the sights by foot, and listed as luscious roof garden, it certainly is! With stunning views over Athens and you can even see the Acropolis through the TV aerials. I loved the apartment, Exarchia, Athens and I will return and hopefully stay again at this luscious roof garden apartment.
