Our time at the apartment near the Acropolis in Athens was absolutely fantastic. Kostis was a fabulous host! He arranged for a ride from the airport which was fantastic and even brought a bottle of wine for us to enjoy. There was some delicious snacks and breakfast type foods in the fridge when we arrived. He is incredibly responsive and flexible. He is personally renting this apartment and not a property manager which makes it THAT much better. The apartment is in a safe area very near to the Acropolis metro station (within a few minutes walk). There is a fabulous rooftop with a wonderful view of the Acropolis. We spent the first few days after coming over from the states here which was a good choice so we could be jet lagged while still having all of the comforts of a big city near us. This apartment is easily within walking distance of Plaka, Syntagma Square, many archaeological points of interest, and tons of food and shopping. We arrived on Orthodox Easter Sunday and then it also happened to be Labor Day so the city was deserted for the long weekend. Highly recommend, would stay again, and would actively seek a place where Kostis is a host.
