The flat is in the heart of central Athens close to the Acropolis and many other major attractions that are within walking distance. It is also a 5 minute walk to Monastiraki metro station for convenient access to the airport, ferry port and the rest of the City. I met co-host Vasilis at the property who showed me the flat, laundry room and gave me a quick tour of the immediate neighborhood to orient myself along with recommendations on places to eat which was helpful. There are a vast number of restaurants and bars at all price levels in the neighborhood to choose from. There are a Bazaar and AB supermarkets within 4 minutes of the flat which was convenient. The studio is in an older building in an old textile merchant neighborhood but don’t worry because the flat has been renovated to contemporary standards as shown in the photos. It is accessed by going up 29 steps to an elevator which takes you up to the 3rd level. The laundry room is located midway up these steps. A combined washer/dryer unit is provided along with detergent for free use and worked well. The flat itself was just like the photos except for the glass shower door which was missing with a shower curtain installed in its place which worked ok. The studio is one large open space with a separate small bathroom. Views are facing some abandoned buildings across the street. Window blackout shutters and curtains are provided. The kitchen included a refrigerator, freezer, sink, oven, two burners, cartridge coffee machine, hot water kettle, dinnerware and utensils. The double bed and pillows were nice and comfy. Soft towels, shampoo, body wash and hand soap were provided. The flat screen TV offered BBC World News and DW English programming on channels 35 and 36. Initial breakfast items were provided such as yogurt, cereal, bread, bananas, honey, jams, juice, milk, coffee and tea which were much appreciated to start the day. The air conditioning was effective, wi-fi signal strong and shower hot water temperature consistent and plentiful. One tip is to push in the button above the shower handle to redirect water to the ceiling mounted shower head. I enjoyed my 6 night stay overall and would recommend this property to anyone looking for an excellent centrally located studio in Athens with great amenities and very responsive hosts.
