Really fantastic flat in the Koukaki area. We travelled here by tram and walking from the nearest station to the flat we thought at first the area looked dodgy but we were wrong - THE AREA IS FANTASTIC. Felt that we were experiencing Athens like Athenians rather than tourists. The street itself is pedestrianised with lots of trees and the cafes and bars give a real buzz. We experienced little noise due to the excellent glazing and the flat is on third floor so above the tree line. There is a lift.
It's located just ten minute walk to the touristy areas of the Acropolis Museum and Plaka area. Lots of local bakeries, greengrocers and supermarkets to stock up.
We ate and drank at several cafe bars in the street itself. The one right next to the flat is a great place to have a drink - a workers co-operative place, great vibe. The eatery next to it was excellent.
Flat itself is spotlessly clean, plenty bedding and pillows and well appointed. Each room has balcony access and air conditioning. We didn't need to use it much as visited in October. Small supplies such as coffee, honey, cold bottle of water in fridge, tea were provided along with soap and shampoo. We were met at the door and shown round by Stella who was very helpful.
Beware the mosquitos. Mossie repellent tablets (plug in type) were provided but we stupidly didn't think we would need them in October. There weren't many around but still got quite a few bites. Might be prudent to keep windows closed and use air con.
I would recommend this place highly. It was in an excellent location, well appointed, well decorated and just made our short break in Athens very relaxing and easy. Thankyou.
