Here is a synopsis of how our trip to Athens was. First off, the communication with the owners was amazing. They answered every question that we had asked in a very timely manner. We were greeted at the airport by them and transported to the residence as well as while on the ride, given a brief overview of the area and some of the hot spots to see. We did pay 40 euro for transportation but paying for a taxi would have cost the same.
Once we arrived to the apartment we were very impressed. The place was very clean, well maintained and made to feel like home. There was juice boxes for my kids, chocolate filled croissants and cartoons.
They explained everything well as to where to go and what to do.
I will say that the area was very safe and we didn't feel uncomfortable in any way. We even took the train (metro) to the Acropolis which took 5 minutes. Walk to the acropolis took 10 minutes and everything was perfect.
Speaking of the Acropolis, be sure to go there. It was an amazing site. Side note, bring & drink lots of water and be careful as some of the stones at the acropolis are slippery.
Back at the apartment, showers worked well and the air conditioning was cold. Bedding was clean and was comfortable.
When it was time for us to leave, our flight was at 0540. Finding a cab would have been difficult at 0300 in the morning. So the apartment owner came and picked us up and dropped us off.
We couldn't have asked for a cleaner more inviting place to stay. The owners were so polite and helpful. We couldn't have asked for better. Thank you for everything. You made the beginning of our vacation such a pleasure.
In closing, I would highly recommend this apartment. You will not be disappointed. We look forward to staying with Yanni again!
OPA!!!!!
