AMAZING place... but with a few disadvantages for longer stays (or taller people):
Walking up the spiralling staircase to the attic apartment of a heritage building from the 1800's past paintings and antiques makes you really feel like you're living in the heart of Athens. Inside the apartment is cooler still with bright walls and a vibrant retro / vintage vibe.
The renovation of this apartment must have been an incredible feat, and given the size of the staircase I'm still puzzling how they managed to get two full-sized couches in there!
The space itself consists of a very nice bedroom with an extremely comfortable bed and new air conditioner which also does heating, a gorgeous patio which I spent a lot of time on even though it was winter, a decently large bathroom and a living space tucked under the A-frame roof's slope. There's also a basic small sink space with a mini fridge.
When it comes to location, it's perfect. Right across the street from the Athens flea market, above an antique store and a 5-10 minute walk to the Acropolis and surrounding archaeological sites. Transportation is easy and there are tons of restaurants around to choose from.
The hosts and the lady who runs the antique shop downstairs were all lovely - excellent communication in both Greek and English, extremely helpful and accommodating. Mrs Erini really went beyond to make my stay special.
However, given the few disadvantages of the place, I would highly recommend it for shorter, summer stays only and probably not during a quarantine period where you have to spend a lot of time at home.
I'm only 5'4" but I finally got a taste of how life is for tall people after bumping my head countless times around this flat - parts of it are REALLY low. I couldn't even stand up properly in the kitchen / sink space and the door to the bathroom couldn't even be 5' tall. I really wouldn't recommend this for taller people.
There are quite a lot of stairs to reach the apartment and the final stretch is very narrow and winding so if you have mobility issues or have lots of heavy bags, this also might not be the place for you.
The living space is nice but again, you can't stand up there and the heater was in the bedroom so the living area stayed fairly chilly.
The shower's hot water ran out really fast and I found the WiFi too slow to connect to work video calls.
Lastly, the kitchen really isn't liveable for anyone who is planning to, or needs to cook. If you're staying here you'd better plan to eat out or get delivery for most of your food. That being said, the plates you'll eat on were really cool antique Chinese porcelain and very fitting of the whole decor.
So in short, it's a great space and a good value given the location and unique nature of the apartment, but if you're needing a full-service space or somewhere to call home for a while then I would look at perhaps one of the other two flats that are available in the same building.
