This home is located in Plaka, which is the perfect location to immerse yourself in Ancient Greece. It was literally a 5 minute walk to the Acropolis, museums, Monastiraki Flea Market, local fruit markets, and many great restaurants. Transportation from the airport to her place was easy. You have three options: Metro, a local taxi, or Uber (which is no longer available in Athens but the app is connected to the local taxi service). We used Uber because the app already had our information loaded from USA and could better communicate our desire destination.
Evangelia’s place is magical! The aesthetics are just beautiful and exactly how the photos look here in the post. The loft overlooks the surrounding neighborhood and the Main Street and local monument. Because this is a loft be aware that there are some stairs to climb. It could be tiring and difficult for someone with walking problems. The shower is very small and built constrained by the rooftop, so be aware that you will need to crouch a bit to take a shower. That being said, water was perfect and hot, and the bathroom was clean (shampoo, soap, detergent for the washer, dish soap, first aid kit, were all available)
Water from the tap in Athens is fine to drink, so we refill our bottles often. AC was great and bed super comfortable. Towels were provided. WiFi router was located right next to the bed. Evangelia is the cutest host and she will reply to all your questions promptly. One last thing we loved about this place, was the electrical orange juicer she left for us in the kitchen and the bowl of oranges she also provided. It was so amazing to have fresh squeezed juice in the morning. We can’t thank her enough for everything she did for us. Highly recommending this place and host to anyone.
