There is not one bad thing we could say about the host or the penthouse. The penthouse was EXTREMELY clean, had more towels per guest, a king size bed (which is rare), air/heating units, privacy, a nice size bathroom with a shower, and the whole flat was NOT CLUTTERED with stuff! The kitchen had just what you need (and everything matched! My OCD is coming out). A nice sitting area with a flat screen TV (which we never even turned on, with that view, why would you?). The WiFi was great, no issues at all with the signal and very clear instructions. The building is very quiet. The location was great. Just a short walk to the metro, stop 14 on the Hop on Hop off red route. The restaurants and shopping are all so close, we just loved it. Oh, oh, oh!!!!! We almost forgot... there were ice cube trays in the freezer!
The view. One of the most spectacular views! We would not have wanted to be closer to the Acropolis. There are no flats close enough to have people watching you on the terrace. Having coffee in the morning on the terrace, watching the city "wake up" (around noon) below was so exciting. Every evening we would make sure we would be there to see the sun set, with a glass of wine of course! And then we were off to discover the many restaurants and gelato shops near by for dinner and dessert.
Konstantinos is such a gracious host. I broke my ankle before we went to Greece and was sporting a boot. Konstantinos was genuinely concerned and helped me so much. He was on time to meet us, took us up to the flat and showed us around. He was accessible when we needed him and very helpful with recommendations. Just a great person who we wish much success in the future. We will remember him always as our favorite host.
You will not be disappointed in this penthouse. When you stay there, please just take care of it when you are there, we would like to come back again and have it just as pristine.
We just loved Athens. Hugs and love to you Konstantinos, until we see you again we will think of you and your fabulous penthouse often. It made our trip a once in a lifetime experience and we thank you for that from the bottom of our hearts.
