The apartment is in a good location for exploring the main sites of Athens, with Kato Patissia metro station about a 7 minute walk away and easy to get to. Opposite the apartment there is a 24 hour cafe and also a supermarket. There is another cafe on the corner of the block the apartment is on.
The apartment has two spacious double rooms with plenty of wardrobe space and the bathroom is adequate. The kitchen has enough cups, mugs and bowls/plates for 6 people. The internet WiFi is fine.
We did have some issues at check in. We arrived at 6am as our flight was delayed heavily. The check in instructions said the safe box was to the left of the entrance, on the caging of the next door Laundry House. However there was no safe box there. There was a safe box to the right of the main entrance however the code we were provided didn’t work so we were stranded. After a delayed flight and no sleep we were very tired and couldn’t access the apartment and beginning to wonder what to do. Thankfully the host wrote back to us at 6.30am to provide the correct code and a photo showing the safe box on the right of the entrance - the one we had found to the right. We were really grateful for the response at such an early time. We were then able to get in the building. However took us some time to find the apartment. There were no numbers on doors and we had been told what floor it was on and there would be a sign on the door of the correct apartment. We couldn’t see the sign and we had to try and the key in all doors at 7am, likely disturbing residents. We found the door and no sign was there. The apartment is at the end of the corridor, immediately in front of you, if you turn left after coming up the stairs, with the grey door. Once we got in, the apartment did smell of smoke which was a shame as we were non smokers. However it was clean and comfortable and spacious for us. It’s perfect as a base for exploring Athens, and despite the issues we had, for the price we paid the apartment is good value.
