Location:
John's apartment is centrally located in the heart of it all, just steps away from Acropolis..literally 3 minus from Odeon of Herodes Atticus theater and the acropolis museum.
The temple of Hephaistos, ancient agora and Olympieion, all within 10 minuetes from the apartment. We never rode the metro because everything was a short walk away.
You feel like acropolis is your backyard,that's how close the apartment is from all major tourist sites.
The apartment:
Is very neat, spacious and clean. The apartment is equipped with all the amenities you may need, from body gel/lotions,tooth paste to coffee and tea. There were also available for guest an expresso machine, coffee maker and even an small coffee percolator.
John offer guest a well balanced selection of jams and fresh fruits. There was a large selection of maps and guide books covering all tourist sites.
Communication with John was constant and prompt, he answered all of our questions within hours. John was a super host, he had Greek delicious cookies for our arrival, he even offered to pick us up at the main port (Piraeus) for small fee as the ferry from Santorini arrived in Athens at midnight and public transit closes at the same time.
After we checked in, John sent us an email with a list of bars and restaurants in the area, including the average price per person. From a £9,00 Slovaki platter to a more upscale restaurants.
I will definitely recommend Johns Plaka apartment to anyone looking for comfort, location an a warm, kind host.
