With no previous knowledge of Athens it was a bit overwhelming to narrow down a place to stay. I was attracted to this listing because of the view of the Acropolis. We all know that the view is never quite as good as the ad promises. BUT…. In this case the view was even better!!! Five stars. Six stars!! The building is one that you would likely stroll by without noticing if you weren’t staying. It’s non-descript and on a less busy road way in Plaka. The building interior is dark and the elevator tiny but works well. We were forewarned of the two people only rule and fully complied. The apartment itself was a bachelor suite. Roomy for two with a small kitchen stocked with the basics to enjoy some snacks in your space. The bed was a double and was comfortable and had adequate bedding. The bathroom was good sized and had a very good shower. They offered a few small bottles of shampoo and conditioner. The large deck which was the VA VA VA VOOM of this Place was sizeable and had two nice lounging chairs, a table and two uprights. There was also a drying rack for clothing. We used and enjoyed it all. The night time breeze was lovely and although the deck got direct sunlight in the afternoon there was an electronic awning that eased the direct hit. Although this space is on the seventh floor (elevator takes you to the sixth and you walk up a last flight of stairs) you do hear a considerable amount of street noise. Having said that you are in a hip and happening area and so of course you will hear street noise, not unlike any hotel in any large center. Everything was in walking distance. Dozens of restaurants, tons of shopping, tourist attractions, metro and so on. In addition to all the great things already noted I have to emphasize the excellent treatment we received from Ramonas and his team. Prompt and friendly communication, an offer to arrange taxis from the airport, an early check-in and late check-out to accommodate our flight times AND in person, full on, excited explanations of the history, culture and all that there was to do in the area. Ramonas spent at least 30 minutes sharing knowledge that helped so much in our enjoyment of the area. We spent four nights here and were very happy with the accommodation and area! Value for the money.
