The host is a warm, artistic woman who was incredibly helpful, charming and communicative. The neighborhood has a fabulous local cafe, several bakeries, a great gyros restaurant, a balcony restaurant with views, a grocery store, and a gorgeous church. We loved being able to experience this quieter area of Thessaloniki and then seeing the view of the sea on our walk to the center. We highly recommend this home which has everything you need and is very comfortable.
