The home is beautiful and you can walk to several monuments, restaurants and the metro station. We loved being in 1869, and it's wonderful how several features of the original home have been retained.
Tassos and his friend Alexander were very helpful, and suggested good restaurants and activities.
Some junkies live in the lane, and it seems a bit scary; but it's completely safe and nothing happened. Just putting it out there so that others are prepared before staying.
