Stop looking any further. You've found it. That gem you hope to find on airBnB while browsing the places. This it it.
You want to experience the best of Athens and end up in places where the waiter comes to ask you 'How dit you end u here, this is normally a restaurant where only locals go?"...
The freshly new renovated appartement had everything you need for a great stay. A beautiful bathroom, your own private garden, great bed (and no outside noise), verrrry clean rooms... The location is perfect: just outside the big tourist area, but within 8 minutes walking in the sun, you stand before the Acropolis museum. Or you take a bus right in front of the appartement, to bring you to all the other parts of the city, or the metro two blocks down. Every evening, you have a local, affordable, quality place to eat within 200m of your bed. Don't worry, Romina has drawn a map of every place worth visiting. The only thing you have to do is choose.
But the best part isn't even the place itself or the location. To top it off, I have never met a host that is so kind, warm and dedicated to her guests. Not only did she provide a whole folder with the best insider tips on Athens (a taxi app, what combiticket to buy, what to visit and when,...), but also on the surroundings: a trip outside Athens? Just browse the suggestions: a naturally heated lake, a temple, the best beaches... all of them very detailed: how to get there, the hours of the bus, what to eat when there...
We are vintage and foodie lovers, and could not have met a better host. Imagine having someone guide you through your vacation, with suggestions etc. catered to your needs. Imagine a host who brings around an electric blanket, just because you might be cold in wintery Athens... It really is like having a cool niece, who know all the good spots an must do's.
So if you go (and why wouldn't you) bring this lovely lady a gift from home already. because, believe me, you WILL want to thank Romina for the best possible travel experience one could have.
This is what Airbnb was made for.
