Everything was as described and photographed. The host was waiting for us and took care of turning on the heating and water boiler before we arrived so we wouldn't be cold (it was March) and could take a hot shower. He'd given us us all the directions on the transfer from the airport and explained everything regarding public transportation in the neighborhood. His wife had also printed off google maps of the neighborhood and the center and a travel guide so it's all there in the apartment. Evangelos was very responsive and when the electricity went out (which was probably our fault) his brother was there 20 minutes later to fix the problem so communication was perfect (btw, by the time he arrived the power'd been back on). The location isn't the most convenient imaginable as the apartment is located outside the city center so you need to get on the bus if you want to see the main attractions, there's no way around it. We didn't mind it though as we stayed long enough not to be in a rush. I'd say the apt is pretty well-connected with the center. There are three bus/trolley lines going directly to the center from the main square. We had no trouble finding our way around. The neighborhood is inhabited by the locals, not many tourists there so it allows you to feel the local spirit. There are some immigrants but to be frank, we could see a lot of immigrants everywhere in Athens and we generally felt safe, no one ever said or did anything that would make us feel uncomfortable, on the contrary, when we would open the map there was always someone who'd stop and ask if we needed help. The neighborhood is pretty lively, like the whole of Athens. At 10 PM on a Tuesday the main square was full of people and EVERYTHING was open, from bars, through pastry shops and bakeries (there are at least 3 at the Kipseli square), to kiosks and mini markets. They are also open on Sundays. All in all, we had a nice and comfortable stay. It's worth mentioning that the apartment was quiet, especially on the weekend. I don't know what the Greek people do on the weekends but it felt like there was no one living there but us and the birds which we could hear chirp in the morning. Coupled with the view of the whole city I'd say it was pretty impressive. Nice touch, there's a big mirror in the bedroom and when you do the morning toilet you can see the reflection of the Acropoli. That's some view!
