Outstanding and amazing stay at Ioannis's house. As a fellow host on AirBnB I can strongly recommend his house for anyone that is considering booking a place in Athens.
The house is located perfectly for visiting the historic sites in Athens. It is less than a 5 minute walk to the Apostolou Pavlou where you can find restaurants, bars and cafes. From here you can can go left to the Ancient Agora (5 minutes) with even more restaurants and shops or right (10 minutes) to the Acropolis, Acropolis Museum and Plaka. Everything you want is within easy walking distance. There is a shortcut through the park that will take 5 minutes off your walk to the Acropolis - look on Maps for this. The neighbourhood is very quiet and great for a good night's sleep.
The house itself is nicely decorated and perfect for up to 5 guests. Technically, it is located in the neighbourhood of Petralona and there are some nice restaurants nearby that are a good alternative for the restaurants in the tourist areas. It was quite warm and humid when we stayed there but the house was very comfortable with the air conditioning. The house has secured parking which is extremely important in Athens if you have a car !
Ioannis, Tina and Teo are a great hosting team and were very helpful during our stay. Tina gave us some very good suggestions on where to go and what to see and Teo was able to help direct me to a clinic for a medical test that I needed. Their help was invaluable to us in allowing us to enjoy our visit to Athens. Having the refrigerator filled with water and grapes upon arrival was a very nice touch after a long drive.
For all of the reasons above and many more is why I can strongly recommend a stay at the Stone Houses under the Acropolis.
Thanks so Much !
