First, the good. The place was clean. The sunset view from the terrace was quite lovely. The area was very quiet. The hot water is supplied by a solar system delivering consistently good heat.
Although the pictures of Nikos’ Beverly Hills show unfinished floors, that is not all that is unfinished. Electrical junctions with wires protruding from the walls and badly plastered electrical conduits abound. There is an area just off the bathroom that is piled up with construction debris. The exterior likewise has construction debris all around. It is as if you were to move into a new house that is not move-in ready.
That would be alright if the description were to reflect that, and then you could make a decision whether to book or not. But the only indication was of a floor that was not quite ready.
The photo of the bathroom was of a modern and very pretty sink. But the bathroom was basically a shower with a sink and toilet in it. Speaking of the bathroom, there was a roll of toilet paper that was nearly at its end and no replacement to be found.
It was a challenging drive to find the place. Nikos was not there to greet us as he promised in the listing. He had business in Athens, but it would have been nice to assign a surrogate to at least help us find the key which was also a challenge.
The walk down to the house is steep and unpaved. If you have any difficulty with mobility look elsewhere.
Once inside, there was no electrical power. No problem once the breakers were located, but if one were not adept at troubleshooting it could have been a problem.
