Rania's place is in a unique location directly below the Acropolis hill. The description of her flat is very accurate and we liked it very much! It is very nice to be in this little village "inside" Athens. You will find everything within walking distance: restaurants, shops, monuments.
The crown jewel of Plaka however is Spiros. I would strongly recommend that you accept Rania's offer that he picks you up from the airport. You will get a first sightseeing tour of Athens, while he drives you to the flat. Also he gives you advice on do's and don'ts in Athens. On our 4th day we also went with him on a day trip to Korinth and Akrokorinth, which is on a hill with an astonishing view. Next time we will certainly book another day trip with him!
