We loved our stay at Greg’s apartment in Athens! After two weeks touring the islands, we only had a few days in Athens, and the apartment was in a perfect location. It had convenient access to all the great sites in Athens. We walked to the Acropolis and the Monastiraki Flea Market with ease. It is just a few blocks from the highly-rated Byzantine museum, Parliament and the peaceful National Garden. It’s also easy to catch the metro or bus to all sites, as well, or to the airport.
The house itself is in perfect condition. All rooms in the home are large allowing you to spread out and relax, and the AC keeps the house cool even in the summer heat. The living room is very nicely furnished to make you feel at home. The kitchen has everything you need to cook a nice meal. It is also very quiet at night, allowing for a very restful sleep after a day of exploring (and if you like it dark, the blinds block out all light). The WiFi works well throughout the house.
Greg was very responsive to our needs and described everything about the house and the neighborhood when we arrived. He sends guests information on Athens (restaurants, sites, etc) and the apartment well in advance of your trip. We received local knowledge and great restaurant recommendations as well. We hope to come back to Athens in a few years and will definitely stay here again.
