When we first got to the building where the apt. is I was wondering what I had gotten myself into,because it looked a bit rough, but once inside the pictures of the apt. are spot on. Alexandra was not there when we first arrived so one of the girls who works for her took us to the apt. showed us around and gave us the keys. As soon as I got onto the internet there was a message from Alexandra welcoming us to Thessaloniki, we got to meet Alexandra and Dimitri the next day, they are great people. They were very nice and said to call them if we needed anything. The apt is roomy, but the kitchen is very small, I would say it is not really cooking compatible but with so many cafe's and restaurants so close I don't know why anyone would want to cook. There is a small fridge to keep milk and what ever you buy cold, and there is a hot pot to fix hot water for coffee, dishes, silverware and a microwave. There is a washing machine and a drying rack which was great. The shower was big and newly updated. The location of this apt. is perfect, just a short walk to the waterfront where all the action is. There is a mini market just a few doors down from the apt. which was very handy and he had reasonable prices. We were comfortable and felt very safe in the apt. and on the street. When we were getting ready to leave Alexandra looked up information for us and was very helpful, I would stay there again!
