We booked this apartment for one month from 20 September but the day after we arrived we realised that the apartment next to us was being demolished with internal walls being knocked down. We contacted Nikos as it was so bad but he didn't respond so we had no alternative but to contact Airbnb. He then responded by saying that the previous tenant had also mentioned it. He said he had been in contact with the workers and that it would be finished at the end of September. We were then subjected to loud drilling noise from 8.00 am and decided we had to move. Airbnb involved again and we had to find somewhere else to stay. Nikos advised us he didn't know where the noise was coming from as there were hundreds of flats in the area!! There is major work going on at the apartment attached and it will take a long time to finish.
The area is very convenient and has lots of cafes, restaurants and great supermarket very close by.
The apartment has a very large balcony to the front which is very nice. The balcony at the rear off the small bedroom is not so nice. The only storage for clothes is in the main bedroom.
The facilities are fine and everything worked. The showers are a bit basic. On the whole we would describe it as being a bit tired but had we not had the noise problem it would have been fine for us.
It doesn't help that Nikos is not in Athens but in central Greece.
