From the moment of my arrival Doros made me more than welcome he made me feel l was at home. After a long trip Doros greeted me at the door, gave me a quick tour of the unit, discussed my plans for the month I was booked for and already had prepared a stack of literature to help me plan my stay. The unit is clean tidy and has everything I could need for a holiday in Athens. Located on a major street the unit is ideal when needing public transport but the unit is in the back of the building making for a quiet and comfortable night's sleep. After a long day walking the streets of Athens it was great to get home open the french doors and feel the cool breeze fill the place, even on the hottest days the unit was quick to cool down. I walked everywhere around the city and could be anywhere within 1/2 hr or less on foot including the Acropolis. I found the building and unit safe and secure and felt comfortable leaving my belongings day or night, which was an aspect of traveling alone which I felt was important. As a host Doros is knowledgeable about all aspects of his city and is only to glad to offer assistance or a chat over a beer, if you tell him what you're looking for whether it be bars, restaurants, or ancient sites he can give you a short list of the best. As I was in town for a month I appreciated the fact that Doros would just check in on me every week or so to make sure I was okay and that everything was going well, much in the same way I suspect his Greek grandmother would do for him. If you have a chance to go out with Doros and his friends I recommend that you take up the offer, Like everyone I met in Athens they are funny and fun to go out with and are genuinely interested in getting to know visitors.
To sum up I had a wonderful month in Athens, staying at Doros' place only made it the better due to the care and consideration Doros offers as a host and a unit which is perfect for long stays like mine or quick visits.
