We were only in Athens for two days but this was a great location to take in the local tourist sites. Maria was a a wonderful host. Communication was excellent and she is a very kind and gentle lady.

The apartment is spotlessly clean and we were provided anything we needed. She even had wonderful extras like a cot, high chair, toys, dishes, bib, etc. for my baby daughter and wonderful tourist guide books for Athens and Greece and some wonderful novels to read (wish I had more time to read them!).

The apartment is very spacious, in a clean, quiet building. The courtyard is terrific and, when you look around, a rare thing for right in the city centre of Athens. It's the size of a small garden/yard! Unfortunately, our short stay did not provide us with a lot of time to enjoy the courtyard. I found the apartment a little darker than the photos showed but that could have been the time of year we were there (early Spring). Also, my husband and I found the bed quite uncomfortable but we put an extra duvet on top of the mattress and sleeping on that improved it a lot. All would be needed would be a mattress topper and the bed would be fine. My stepson slept on the sofa bed in the living room and that was just fine for him.

The location is ideal. We were close to anything we wanted to see in our short stay and we managed to see quite a bit. The neighbourhood is wonderful and so characterful. We would loved to have spent more time exploring just in our area. I highly recommend Maria's apartment for a stay in Athens!
