We had a fantastic stay here as a group of four girls from London. Stella was unbelievably helpful - I use Airbnb a lot and she was by far the best host I’ve had. She arranged cabs for us arriving and departing (and made lots of subsequent changes that we needed to make), she provided great tips on local restaurants and bars and made sure we were ok every day. She was very keen to help us in any way possible.
I was very pleasantly surprised by Athens I think partly because of how fantastic the location of this apartment is - you can walk to all of the nice local areas and historic sights with ease (we didn’t need a taxi the whole 3 nights). We liked a nearby little area of restaurants and bars gathered around some steps up to the Acropolis (recommended by Stella) and A for Athens rooftop bar with a fantastic view of the Acropolis. However, our favourite venue in Athens was actually the cafe bars directly opposite in Ipitou square - especially the one on the corner which has a very skilled barman who makes amazing cocktails.
The apartment itself was as expected - no mod cons but it’s quaint and very spacious and fitting with the lovely old square it is in, which buzzes with local atmosphere on an evening. Also nice to sit out on the balconies. Would definitely stay here again.
