This apartment was perfect for us. First the basics. The beds are very comfortable, the air conditioning works well (didn't need to use the heat), the Wifi is fast and reliable, and the apartment is quiet. It is in a very good location less than 10 minutes from the closest Metro stop, although once we realized that taxis were so inexpensive and plentiful in Athens, we used them most of the time. You can get to most locations in the center city by cab for less than 5 Euros and in about the time that it takes to walk to the Metro, and you can usually get a taxi right outside of the door. Worst case its a two minute walk to Kolonaki Square to find one.

The kitchen is well set up for breakfast and lunch type preparation. We didn't attempt any major cooking, but I think that you could without much problem. There is a very nice farmer's market just a few blocks away on Friday mornings, and there are bakeries and food stores close at hand. There are also a number of good restaurants within walking distance.

The apartment is decorated very nicely with quality fixtures and materials, and a real artistic flair throughout. The rooms are of nice size and well proportioned, making the space very usable. Communications with Michalia were fast and easy, and she was responsive to any questions that we asked. We would not hesitate to stay there again, or to recommend this apartment to anyone planning a trip to Athens.
