Yota was a very welcoming host. She was there when we arrived. In addition to showing us around she gave us general tips about the city and the region. Thanks to her recommendations we saw the best archeological site in the region (Philip the second's tomb) and ate in wonderful restaurants. The house itself was more than we ever needed - at the heart of the city close to all the amenities and the sea, clean and self-sufficient and yet in a quiet street. Shopping and dining are all close-by and we wouldn't hesitate to book the place again when we visit Thessaloniki (in not so distant a future, we hope).
