Best place to stay if you want to experience the hip side of Athens. Ioannis place felt just like home for us. He was very prompt in answering and addressing all our questions and problems (we managed to get our self locked out the apartment at 6 AM, and his brother was there in 10 minutes to help us). Every main site is in walking distance, we only used the metro to and from the airport. Lots of bars and coffee places in the neighborhood, where you can party or chill. You must go to Rakor (is on Ioannis list of recommendation ) for the best food ever- 2 minutes from the apartment. We totally recommend staying at Ioannis's place!
