I spent a week at the apartment with a buddy in July 2022. After my friend left, I moved to The Athens Gate hotel on my own. Therefore, I was able to compare the AirBnB to a popular hotel which both cost about the same.
Honestly, I would stay in the AirBnB over Athens Gate in a heartbeat. It’s a huge 2 bedroom apartment with 2 baths and a giant patio. The host was very gracious. He thought of everything and supplied fresh fruit, wine, water, shampoo, etc. He even walked with me to the store when I first arrived around midnight.
The only issue is that the apartment is located on a sketchy block. The host lives right next door and the apartment is gated so I didn’t feel unsafe. However, I wouldn’t recommend exploring the neighborhood much. 2 blocks away and you’re good. Just head straight to Omonia Square and jump on the metro each day and you’re good. The neighbor is probably why you’re able to get the place for the same price as you would a super small hotel room near Acropolis. For me, it was definitely worth it especially for longer stays.
