We had a wonderful stay in Maria's apartment for a few days. The apartment was so fantastic - especially the balcony, which we looked forward to returning to every evening for the sunset after a day in the city it was really stunning with a view of entire Athens and which we felt gave the 'best view in Athens'. Maria was a super host very welcoming and kind and extremely helpful. As we visited in very hot weather the apartment was perfect because it had very good air conditioning. The apartment is set with easy access to the metro and buses and is in a central location perfect for a city break. The metro stop closest to the apartment had direct access to the airport which made travelling to and from the airport very comfortable. The apartment is also in an area that is quiet in the evenings but surrounded by various shops below and very nice places to eat traditional greek food. During the week there was a food market in the morning/early afternoon which was just off a side street which is also very special. Staying in Maria's apartment was one of the highlights of our trip and we cannot recommend staying here enough!
