When my family and I arrived at Manolis' apt, he was waiting to greet us and show around. He was very charming and we were very happy to be there. What we particularly liked was the fact that it was a private residence and had that lived-in feel about it. It was also very light and spacious with beautiful rugs on the floor and numerous paintings on the walls - very attractive! The balcony was an added bonus and a very pleasant space to enjoy the occasional meal.....when it was warm enough! We weren't that lucky with the weather until the last 3 days of our week's stay, but it didn't detract from our most enjoyable week. There's also an excellent supermarket only 5 minutes walk away, which was very convenient.
We all think it was great value and would heartily recommend it to future visitors, especially families, spending a little while in Athens.
The metro was only a few minutes walk away and so convenient for the airport and getting around the city for sightseeing.
Thanks Manolis - we really had a happy stay. Toby, Sean, Tara, Ziah, Jennie and Jarah.
