We were able to walk to everything we wanted to see. The shops and restaurants in Plaka (a great area) are about 2-3 blocks away. The property was spacious and comfortable. There was also an elevator for my 78 year old parents. Overall, I’d give it an A. ##### Kristin D. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nitin T. Aug 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This is a wonderful apartment large enough for a big family or even two families that is close to all the great sites. Easy access to dining as well - very approachable and supportive staff. Our only problem was that in one bedroom there are no closets to hang clothes or to store anything. Also, the bathrooms could use small cabinets to put toiletries, etc. there is a small issues and don’t attract the overall value as well as location of this lovely place. ##### Nitin T.

Mar 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful property This is a beautiful apartment. You will not meet nicer people than the owners. The purple couch is so cute and comfy. Plenty of room indoors and on the beautiful wrap around porch. Restaurants and shops are in walking distance- the food everywhere is outstanding! WiFi in the home was great. There is some outdoor construction and repairs going on at the moment that resulted in some hiccups, but the owners were very accommodating about the issues. ##### Heather B.

Oct 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent place in Athens Litsa was very helpful and prompt with our questions and requests during our stay & throughout the reservation process. The place was larger than the impression the photos gave. Very spacious & comfortable for our group of 7 adults. Our group spent a lot of time out on the balcony, when we were not out in Athens. WiFi seemed fast and is good for those that need to work remotely 10 minute walk with luggage from Syntagma Metro station Easy secure entry Would rent again for our next trip to Athens ##### Timothy H.

Excellent pre-arrival communication. Accommodating hospitality. Plenty of room for our family to spread out. Immaculately clean. Athens was experiencing a major heatwave while we were there.

May 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent location This place was within walking distance of everything we wanted to see! Getting to and from the airport was a pain, but not the fault of the lodging at all. Lots of space for our group (2 couples 2 singles) to relax and unwind, but also socialize and enjoy the views. Kitchen was limited but perfect for our needs. Fantastic space with lots of character in a character filled city. ##### Deanna F.
