My friends and I (3 ladies) stayed at Panagiotis/Yannis’ apartment for 6 days and 5 nights. What he has described and shown (photos) of his place is exact. The apartment is very convenient to everywhere in the Monastiraki, Plaka, and Syntagma areas. It is a couple of blocks away from Monastiraki station, a few minutes walk to the fashion and eat streets of Ermou, Mitropoleos, Adrianou, Monastiraki Square and Flea Market, etc. Most importantly it is also not far to the Acropolis, about 15 minutes walk if you don’t stop and get tempted with shopping at the cute and awesome stores along the way!
The apartment is clean and new. Though it is quite small, it can fit 3-4 people. It has a little kitchen with amenities you can use, but doesn’t have a living area - which won’t really matter if you’ll be out most of the day anyway.
The area, Kolokotroni, is busy and surrounded by textile shops, boutiques, cafes, restaurants, and bars. Despite this, it is a very safe neighborhood.
However, at night, some motorists (bike and cars) as well as people coming from the bars nearby get very noisy. If you don’t mind that then this is the place for you.
Yannis is easy to talk to, replies quickly, and is there to help with any information you need.
I absolutely recommend this place, I’d even stay here again if I’m ever back in Athens. 😊
