Really nice decorating and style of the apartment. Got everything you need but no kitchen knives unfortunately? You have to bring/buy ur own oil and spice because they only provide salt if you wanna cook.
Well to summarize my stay... it was a nice apartment indeed but to enter the main door to the building was out of this world.. just horrible!
Most of the time I was locked outside because I couldn’t enter, majority of the time I just waited outside until someone came or left the building. Asked for help because I couldn’t stand this at all, especially on a 8 nights stay. Few days after a person from the company came, super friendly and polite but it didn’t help the issue with the door. Still the same issue and when the person told me it’s been having this problem for while to enter the door and I need to be patient and try until it opens.. even the key he showed me how to do it did break in half and we tried with another one, in the beginning he could enter with no problem and then we where locked outside for a good 20min trying to open the door... just got extra keys if they would break again?
Somebody was coming to fix the door I been told from the company but nothing happened..
To be locked outside 85% of time u wanted to go back home and spending minimum 10h to just sit outside and wait until someone would enter or leave the building if you don’t count that I have to spend two nights at friends places because the neighborhood is not safe during the night.. a lot of drugs and prostitution happening in this area! My local friends didn’t let me go home alone late if I couldn’t enter because they didn’t trust the neighborhood and one time it was actually a person doing heroine opposite the building.. even missed a tour that cost me 65€ because I forgot my wallet and couldn’t access the building quickly to get it so I missed it.
Just horrible a company can rent out a apartment that having this big issue, it’s about the safety of the guest and access to the apartment. They know about this issue for a while it seems like but still renting it out? No words...
So if you don’t mind being locked outside and be around a lot of drugs and prostitution during the night, then you should definitely stay here. Great apartment but that’s all you get if you are able to get in.
Hope they fix this huge issue ASAP and don’t rent it out until...
Athens is a amazing city if you never been there!
