"Great, easy going flat in the very center of Athens. We did not use any public transportation apart from/to the airport, everything is in walking distance. The place is recently renovated and the big advantage is the ofcourse the balcony-terrace. The hosts are really helpful and welcoming. We will visit again for sure!"
