This was our second stay at Evangelia's home, and we love this cozy, private nook on the 3rd floor, with a view of the Acropolis.
On this visit, we also experienced a rare treat. While Evangelia and her husband were redoing their basement, archaelogists requested to explore the ground underneath. They found stones dating back to 500 BC that formed the base of a monument that was a tower constructed for the winner of an ancient literary competition. Evangelia and her husband have now renovated the basement floor with glass inserts, so that you can peer down and see the ruins. This was a really special delight and reminded us that Athens is a city on top of cities. If you stay here, ask if they will show you.
Aside from that, we plan to stay here on every future visit to Athens — they are the most lovely people.
