Our host was wonderful! Rio's wife stayed up to meet us even though we were late arriving at the apartment. She showed us around and made really helpful suggestions on where to find a bakery for breakfast in the morning, a few restaurant suggestions, where to find a local market as well as directions and ideas for sight seeing the next day with our tight timeline in Athens. We felt really comfortable and welcome in the loft. Everything was there that is needed for an easy and comfortable stay, as long as you like a firm mattress to sleep on. There was even a nice cold bottle of water in the fridge for us on arrival. Our suggestions for future guests would be to book a local taxi to the apartment as Rio suggests to get to the apartment for the first time - we got lost and the apartment is on a very small side street, and many locals that we asked did not know where the street was! We took the Metro to the Acropoli station and tried to find our way from there, got close but ended up taking a taxi from a local hotel the rest of the way! Getting to and from the apartment once you understand where it is located is easy.
