Super private with its own courtyard Emi’s place is a secret hideaway from the bustle of the city just 15 mins metro ride from downtown. You’ll appreciate that this is a Greek neighbourhood, if you want the excitement of a multicultural area you can walk towards the centre for 25 mins or take 2 metro stops.
This apartment is about 5 mins walk up a gentle hill from the Metro, close-by you have bakeries, cafes and shops. The neighbourhood feels safe (not a given in modern Athens) and if you’re driving it’s easy to find a parking space.
Emi is a good and communicative host who always replies to messages promptly and should you have any issues solves these without delay - department yourself is cosy and well equipped with everything that you could need to cater for yourself and be comfortable. It definitely would be a nice place to stay once the weather gets warmer given that there is a lovely courtyard with a lemon tree outside - in the winter months you need to be aware that this is a basement level and the heating only comes on in the afternoons and evenings so bring a pair of slippers to stay warm because all of the floors are tiled. If you’re travelling as a couple this is an ideal place to locate yourself for your Athens stay whilst you might not have a fantastic view the privacy and peace and quiet is much appreciated.
Overall I would say that this is one of the best value places that you will be able to find to stay in relatively central Athens and is to be highly recommended
