We were very excited to stay at this Airbnb because of the undeniably pleasant view and the convenience of the location. Unfortunately, we were disappointed and this is my first negative airbnb review. On arrival we were not greeted with a basked of local products as in the site description, but with a chemical odor from construction below the unit. This was remedied by closing the bathroom window thankfully.
Ready to relax and wash our clothes (we choose this unit specifically because it had a washer) we were disappointed to find a front loading washer that has not been well maintained and proceeded to make the entire unit smell of mildew despite running several cycles.
While I like minimally furnished industrial spaces (i happen to live in one), the unit presented as somewhat cluttered with brochures and books tossed every which way on a shelf when you enter. The furnishings did not seem to be of particular quality, some looking rather worn, and the apartment was overall questionably maintained as evidenced by the displaced outlet by the kitchen sink or the non-functioning iron.
This was the last few days of our honeymoon, and thankfully Athens made up for the disappointment of this accommodation.
