A gem in the heart of Athens. Impressive location surrounded by restaurants, cafes (Bel Ray omg!), bars, and supermarkets. Short uphill walk to breathtaking views of the city from Philopappos. 10–15 minute walks to Athens Contemporary art museum, the tourist precinct of Plaka, Acropolis Museum, and the Acropolis itself. The National gardens and Syntagma square are a little further (about 30 mins walk), but the stroll is magical and there are plenty of public transport options including the metro. The neighbourhood has a flourishing local night life and felt well lived-in and safe.
The apartment itself is quiet, private, and secure. Big first-floor windows and a/c for warm weather. It had everything we needed for our week and a half stay. We didn't end up cooking in the apartment (eating out in Athens is just so good!), but kitchen appeared to be well equipped. Very clean and modern. Great shower and bathroom. Strongly recommend this host !
