I would highly recommend anyone to stay at this place. Alis was very friendly and welcoming. Even checked updates on railway strike for us cuz we mentioned that we were heading to Meteora the next day.
The word "historic" makes the place sound just outdated; it's so much more than that. What a unique place with so much personality at an amazing location especially for a budget traveler. Super close to the metro station that links to the port, airport, and train station if you're going outside Athens. They provide you a little handbook with good places to eat and have fun in the area. Since it's a shopping area, you see more locals than tourists.
The place was clean -- had a little bit of smell probably from the old hardwood floor but that comes with the age of the building. Towels were soft -- a strange thing to talk about, right? So far, half of the 4 Airbnb locations we've stayed in Greece had sandpaper-feel towels cuz air drying is common. The streets are well lit and super safe. It's close to taverns, but not right in front of it so noise was minor (granted it was a Thursday night). The room doesn't have an AC but a window and a fan, so it does get a bit hot. Might not be the best choice if you absolutely need it to be cold to fall asleep. The rooftop is really cute to enjoy cool air at night. Overall, we loved the place and wished if this place was available in the beginning of our trip.
