First, the apartment is spacious and nicely furnished. It's not like some Airbnb spaces one gets stuck in that the owner has left all of his personal belongings behind in what seems like a cluttered rush. This space is catered for the visitor like a good hotel. Comfortable living room with large size screen, very comfortable bed and bedroom, large, clean, working bathroom. Some things (the cutlery, the beddings) seem brand new. All agreeably minimal while perfect in how it meets your needs.
Then, it's in a very funky, bohemian (but safe) part of Athens, with a lot of hip bars and cafés for one to explore, though the street the apartment is located on is extremely quiet with a small public park right beneath the balcony that opens onto the green space that is so lacking in much of Athens.
Marianthe, Helena's friend and representative in Athens, was very helpful and friendly with any inquiries I had, and even Helena checked in with me a couple of times (all the way from México) to make sure I was ok. I've never experienced such hospitable attention at another location.
Definitely suggest it!.
