Makis is a great host and we truly enjoyed our stay at his place - it is very central, and we felt well at home in his apartment. Makis had a lot of work to do for an alternative theatre play he was directing at the time, but he made sure to give us excellent recommendations for where to go in Athens - I think we went to the best tavern in town! I can definitely say that we would have enjoyed Athens much less if we had not had the opportuntity to meet Makis and to stay at his place.
