A fresh and newly renovated, luxuriously spacious AirBnb in one of the most coveted parts of Athens, brimming with terrific artisan boutiques, local bars, cafe’s and restaurants. The flat is spotlessly clean and well laid out into three separate areas; A large and comfortable sitting room with a dining table and chairs, as well as a large bedroom with a king sized bed and a separate kitchen area with a table. Adding the excellent internet connection to this list, remote workers traveling as a couple, would feel very happy to have the space and quiet to do their work. I was able to download several Netflix movies onto my IPad in a very short time, to enjoy during my upcoming ferry ride to Naxos. The flat is also equipped with excellent lighting for every area of the flat. You will not feel as though your were “left in the dark”. The wonderful hosts thought of every important amenity for the flat including large, flat screen televisions in the bedroom and sitting room, a Nespresso machine with enough capsules to get you started for a couple of days, microwave with double cooktop, new washer and dryer, (brand new) guest slippers in the bedroom, iron and ironing board to press out those wrinkles from the suitcase, lots of space on the pretty white shelves in the bedroom to unpack your things or place your electronics, USB ports next to the bed, on BOTH sides and lots of hangers for your clothes. The dining chairs, sofa and bed are all brand new and very comfortable to relax in. Lots of hot water for your shower. The bathroom had soap, shampoo, aftershave and more than enough water. I could easily live in this flat. It would be awesome for an extended stay, if possible.
The neighborhood is extremely safe and central yet not located in a “touristy” area. The perfect escape from the heat and noise of Athens after one’s day of sightseeing is finished. Access to the building is only one step up from the sidewalk and three steps down to the entry door. Located on a very quiet street, just two short blocks from one of the main arteries through Koukaki, a short walk through this very charming neighborhood brings you to the famous Acropolis as well as the most important archeological museums, sites and lovely parks in Greece.
The hosts were extremely welcoming and kind. I loved my stay here even though I was not visiting Athens for a holiday. Thank you for your gracious welcome and friendly communication.
I recommend the hair salon “Blondie” just three blocks away as well as the fabulous Thai restaurant Tuk Tuk, about four blocks away.
