Despina was a very lovely host. When we arrived, she gave us a short tour of her home and then offered some suggestions about what to do in Thessaloniki.
Her home was incredibly beautiful, and looks better than in the photos (which is very rare)! Even though some days were hot, her apartment remained cool. The balcony was our favourite section of the entire home; it was equipped with a dining table and several couches, where we had breakfast on every morning.
The location is also extremely convenient and very close to downtown Thessaloniki.
