I think the location was good, if you're looking to be in the thick of the town you should look elsewhere. I personally like being on the outskirts of the chaos. This flat was very close to public transit options although my friend and I walked to the Acropolis. The bakery next store makes great coffees and delicious pastries. The value versus the cost was definitely fair and I would recommend to others. You don't visit Athens to stay in your room so it was perfect for our needs.
