Although Yiannis and his friend Nikos had been nice hosts and gave us lots of information about Thessaloniki, we did not feel very good in the apartment. The rooms are much smaller than on the pictures and there was not enough room for our luggage and clothes. The location is good for exploring the city because it is situated in the city center of Thessaloniki. But it is badly soundproofed and one could hear every word of the neighbors. Also, the apartment is very dark and you are looking towards an ugly wall in an interior courtyard which is a huge construction site. Of course, the host does not have any influence on this but one should know that because it may be very overwhelming.
The stove was very rusty and the dishes have been dirty.
Also, there was a strong smell in the bathroom, probably because of old installations. Yiannis immediately looked after this but we had to keep the windows open 24h which was not the best solution because of the cool weather at that time.
All in all, it was okay but unfortunately, we cannot recommend this apartment compared to lots of other air bnb apartments we have seen so far in Greece and other countries.
