THE MOST AMAZING AIRBNB HOST EVER!
From the second I messaged Mike with all of my questions regarding Athens, Mike went above and beyond as a host. He responded so quickly and wrote such thorough and long responses to each of my questions. He gave me detailed directions how to reach the flat from the airport and even met me at the metro station to show me the flat personally.
The apartment was beautiful. Walled with windows, the place has great natural light, but also has blackout curtains to block the light when sleeping. Mike equipped the kitchen with everything you could ever need or even imagine for breakfast. Literally I had a breakfast buffet in my fridge! Way better than the average continental breakfast spread at a hotel. He even had a nepresso machine! He also had all the essentials stocked in the bathroom (soap, shampoo, towels, washing detergent, hair blow-dryer, etc...). Though I didn't end up using it, it was great that there was a washing machine in the apartment just in case! Very convenient.
After getting situated in the apartment, Mike walked me around the area, which is right in the center and touristic part of Athens. Very close to everything you will want to see in Athens. Everything is open very early and also closes very late in the area. You cannot find a better area to stay in Athens.
Mike was so helpful throughout my stay. When I asked for a few more nespresso capusules, within minutes, there were capsules waiting at my door. Not even 5-Star hotels have service this amazing (and I know form working 8 years in the luxury hotel industry). Mike truly cares and enjoys what he does as a host. I texted Mike my last day in Athens and told him that I was unfortunately pickpocket-ted while sightseeing. Mike then took the time out of his day to bring me to the Police Station and helped translate my dilemma in Greek. I cannot thank Mike enough for all of his kindness. The apartment was incredible and the host was even more incredible.
I would suggest this apartment in less than a heartbeat!
