The location of this apartment is unparalleled--as in, mindblowing! The views of the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum are stunning. We arrived on Christmas Eve, and most of the tourist attractions were closed for Christmas and December 26, yet thanks to the amazing location of the apartment, we felt just relaxing in the apartment was like sightseeing!!
The apartment was close to many wonderful features of Athens, including the charming, winding back streets of the Plaka, the National Garden, and more. Literally just steps from everything you'll want to do in Athens (and honestly no more than 40 steps to the Acropolis metro stop so you can easily ride to everything else, like the ferry to Hydra!). Also, as a runner, I found numerous routes, including trails (!!), within a half-mile of the apartment.
The size of the apartment was ideal for our 5-member family. We had enough room to spread out, yet we were in proximity to each other so we felt "together" even when enjoying some downtime. The furniture was comfortable, and there were plenty of plates/cutlery in the kitchen. The bathrooms were spacious (one has a bidet!).
The host also puts guests in touch with a charming, erudite driver named Theofinis ("Theo"), who can drive you to or from the airport or give you a driving tour of the city. (We had him do all three--for very reasonable rates.)
We loved Athens, and my entire family feels the location + amenities of this apartment played a huge role in our enjoyment of the city!
