We had an enjoyable time in Athens. We spent most of our days out but the space itself was very welcoming. We didn't use the kitchen much but when you're on extended stay, it is very nice top have the option to cook, or make coffee and tea.
Orestis is very accommodating in meeting you when you arrive. He had to deal with an emergency so his friend came to meet and show us the place. It was very easy to pick up and leave the keys.
If you're not used to small spaces then you may not like the shower because it is about 3x3 feet. The shower head holder was broken but we propped it over the handles or turned it off between cleaning. The laundry washer is not plugged in so you have to use the outlet outside the bathroom. Plan when you do laundry as you'll have to dry it on a rack.
There is many products to use of you forget shampoo, feminine hygiene products, laundry soap, sun screen and more.
The Acropolis is about a 20 minute walk. We really enjoy walking so this location was ideal for us to go around the city. You can walk to most of the main tourist sites within 20-45 minutes. We were lucky to be there on a holiday and saw a lot of sites for free.
There’s some lovely cafes and restaurants nearby.
