The room was in a great location in Panagiota's home. I didn't even have to take public transit, you could walk everywhere - Acropolis, Plaka, markets, museums. The room was very clean, the bed very comfortable, and there was a nice little balcony. You literally can see the Acropolis from the balcony and the patio. Panagiota met me at the subway station and offered a snack upon my arrival. She has a gorgeous rooftop patio great for eating, lounging, viewing the city. There are a few things to be aware of: there are stairs but no elevator, the church bell (right outside your window) chimes every 1/2 hour, at night the streets are very noisy and you can definitely hear it all from the room, the host has a large dog who barks a lot, there's no kitchen sink, host is currently renovating the home. These things did not personally bother me, and I believe the room is simply great value for your money. I enjoyed my trip to Athens and Panagiota made me very comfortable!
