Tia and Mike's place was great for our travels to Athens! Tia was very welcoming upon our arrival, and provided great information as a first time visitor to the city. On top of providing maps and directions, she even recommended a great local place to eat which was much appreciated! The room was clean, spacious and well-suited for our stay. Many amenities were provided as well! It was definitely a better choice than a hostel! The accommodations were walking distance (10-15+min) to many of the tourist attractions, and a cheap cab ride (less than 5 euro) from the main square. My only critique is that the place echoed a lot, especially when doors opened and closed as people walked in and out.
