We had a fabulous time! The host was quick to respond and gave good information. The location of this apartment is within 30 minutes walking to everything we wanted, the tourist sites of Plaka and ruins. We loved the bakery a street over and near-by grocery as well as the market close to the Thessio metro stop I believe which is what we used. People were very nice....the city and neighborhood has lots of graffiti which is unfortunate, but the food, culture and history is wonderful. The apartment has a lot of light, very clean, a great wrap around balcony, lots of closet space and great kitchen ammenities. I like the security of the locked front entrance and the apartment up the stairs, makes you feel part of the community and neighborhood. And even though the train is near by, it didn't bother us sleeping at all because the windows have these great auto shutters that come down which helps with the light and sound. The beds are not comfortable (can feel springs), but that varies on personal preference and may only be a problem if someone has a back issue. Otherwise, it was a wonderful 2 night stay and we thoroughly enjoyed Athens after some island visits.
