Really really enjoyed staying in the space for the four days we were in town. The two master bedrooms was really nice since we had spent the previous eight days sharing a bathroom (we both live alone, so that was a bit of an adjustment). The location is the prize for this listing! The view of the acropolis, both day and night, fantastic!!! Additionally it is close to all of the tourist things that you could want to do in Athens. It’s close to a great shopping district, historical areas, and to the acropolis. We walked an average of 6 to 8 miles every day and we’re not forced to take a taxi when we had the time to move from point to point. Additionally, the Location is on a one-way street, which makes catching a taxi very easy. We discovered that Uber is connected with a taxi service and is a very reasonable way to get to areas of the city that are further. It’s also close to some really good local food, which we enjoyed immensely. The one drawback is on Sundays, because this is primarily a business district, most things are closed and we had to venture a bit further away for food. But that just encouraged us to be adventurous.
The beds were very firm but comfortable. The rooms were exceptionally clean and aesthetically pleasing. There is no kitchen, but both rooms had a small refrigerator, a teapot and one room had a microwave. I think we had gotten spoiled to having a full kitchen in our previous stays where we did cook breakfast every morning. One of the primary reasons we choose Airbnb‘s over hotels is to have a full kitchen so we can cook breakfast and other meals as desired. That was the one disappointment, but that was on me for not paying closer attention to whether or not there was a full kitchen.
I was somewhat surprised that these two rooms are not connected and you have to go outside on the patio to get from one room to the other. We were there for a work conference and ended up working on the patio together. It was beautiful while we were in Athens and being out on the patio was an absolute joy. If it had been cold or rainy it would’ve made the situation a bit difficult.
Overall, this was a very positive experience. When we checked in, everything was explained to us and we had no difficulties whatsoever.
A great place to stay!!!
