Guest Reviews

• Anne-Marie (9/5): Ideally located for Akropolis and Plaka area. - Very well located and good facilities. Kostis was extremely helpful.
• Violina (9/5): Toller Aufenthalt in zentraler Lage, Akropolis und viele andere Sehenswürdigkeite zu Fuss erreichbar - Die Gastgeberin hat auf mich in der Wohnung gewartet, war sehr freundlich und hat uns alle notwendigen Infos gegeben. Der Gastgeber hat per textnachrichten Zusatzinfos zu Restaurants und Umgebung gegeben. Er hatte ach das Taxi organisiert, das mich vom Flughafen abgeholt hat.
• Jager (10/5): -
• thomas (10/5): A true gem besides the Acropolis - Just to have the assurance of an excellent host is worth the whole visit With Kostis assuring your comfort and safety we felt very welcomed and taken care of The best bakery just a block away and at the foothill of the acropolis Excellent location and comfortable apartment Highly recommended A very minor observation One of the bedrooms was to darkly painted
• Lars (9/5): -
• Antonio (9/5): Ottimo appartamento, buon quartiere ma con riserva. - Ottima posizione, nelle immediate vicinanze del sito archeologico del Partenone. Quartiere turistico ben attrezzato ed organizzato Bisogna essere assolutamente chiari su un punto : NON si può sostare con la macchina in questo quartiere. Non è un problema di divieti, ma di sicurezza. Vi spaccheranno i finestrini dell'auto (come è successo a noi )pur essendo pieno giorno, di fronte all'ingresso del Museo e dopo aver scaricato solo parte dei bagagli nell'appartamento. Prendono di mira solo auto con targhe straniere oppure auto a noleggio. Questo vi farà perdere molto tempo tra polizia, riparazioni del vetro etc E' un ibrido tra protesta sociale, vandalismo e delinquenza locale, ma siccome non prendono di mira i cittadini residenti, tutti se ne infischiano, anzi i negozianti che sono a pochi metri dalla vostra auto piena di vetri rotti, ridono di voi. E' stupidità pura, in un cocktail di miopia politica e trasandatezza istituzionale. Abbiamo interpellato le guide turistiche ed i residenti locali, che ci riferiscono almeno 5 casi al giorno in tutti gli orari. Che fa la polizia ? NULLA ( Vi diranno che queste cose avvengono ovunque ) Dovete per forza pagarvi un garage, che per fortuna è a circa 800 metri. Questo potrebbe gettare un'ombra sulla serenità della vacanza, ma visto che ora siete stati avvisati... Per Fortuna, il Sole è comunque sempre più forte dell'Ombra....
• Sven, Dr. (9/5): - Good location for visiting Acropolis and museum, plaka nearby with many restaurants, shops, souvenirs, all just some steps away. Rooms were clean, wifi is fast. Host is very polite, kind and caring.
• Samantha (10/5): - Incredible location, kindest host!
• Ornella (10/5): - Estaba impecable, tenía todo lo necesario y la ubicación perfecta.
• Anna Ng (9/5): It was a great stay. I will stay there again - The host, Kostis, is very nice. All my questions were answered very promptly via Whatsapp. The kitchen is very well equipped. Lots of coffee pods, paper napkins, laundry detergents, etc. Bed is very comfortable. Location is great, right next to Acropolis Museum. It will be best if the garbage bin in the kitchen is a Step-On trash can, so we dont need to use our hand to open the lid.
• Jayan (9/5): -
• yuval (9/5): - המיקום מושלם והדירה מהממת
• Nicola (10/5): Delightful, spacious city apartment right in the heart of Athens. - The property is a ground floor property with a few steps up from the street level. It is located right next to the Acropolis Museum, it is close to the acropolis metro stop ( 2-4 mins walk), It is very clean. It has 2 very comfortable double bed rooms. The AC made the apartment very comfortable as Athens was hot being end of July. It has delightful decor modern and vibrant. The kitchen has everything you need and is spacious. It has a very lovely, cool and comfortable living room, the TV has a good range of channels including Netflix (although we didn’t actually use it). There is a bathroom with a shower, basin, WC and washing machine. There is a second WC. Clean towels are provided. There is a small balcony which overlooks a courtyard. It is a delightful city apartment. Nothing
• Cottrell (9/5): Amazing place, location and we were looked after in every way. THANK YOU - The location was amazing and we could walk or catch a bus to everywhere. The host Kostis was phenomenal in organising transport, telling us best places to eat and where to visit. He was always on hand to help us have the best experience of Athens and helped us book taxis and tours. Extremely kind and went out of his way to help Everything was perfect
• Sarah (9/5): Superb -
• Katey (9/5): Overall is a good stay! - The location is great, easy to walk around, nice and safe neighborhood. Host met us in front of the building, gave us the keys, explained all the policies and rules and how to use the hot water. also gave us recommendations for local restaurants and transportation service ( Taxi drivers were on strike during our stay) The smaller bathroom/ powder room is really small, it's a little bit difficult to turn around
• Duncan (9/5): Fantastic at the foothills of Acropolis. - Space for family. Facilities.
• Igal (10/5): Great stay in Athens - Comfortable and clean. Quite street, right next to the Acropolis museum. The owner is really helpful. Great transportation to the area. No parking in the area, so don't come with a car.
• Gustavo (10/5): I hope to stay in this place whenever I come to Athens. - The apartment is excelent. Location is unbeatable. Walking distance to Acropolis, in front of the Museum and several options for good restaurant. The host provided all support and indicated the best service for visiting Delphi. His kind attention both to my daughter and me is unforgetable. This is the place I will always return when I come to Athens. Excelent i every detail.
• Nicole (10/5): Great place to stay!! - The apartment was extremely clean with comfortable beds and all the necessities. The location was ideal for us, close to everything we needed, yet quiet at night. The host was very helpful with arranging transport, guides, and restaurant recommendations. Our family looks forward to staying here again.
• Rachel (10/5): Amazing host, accommodations and location. Highly recommend!! - Everything! Amazing host, location and accommodations!!! All was well!
• Nicole (10/5): Kostis was so accommodating and gave us tips on restaurants, gelato and places to visit - Its location, size and cleanliness. Nothing
• Amici (9/5): Comfortable, safe, authentic and convenient place to stay! - The location was excellent! So close to wonderful restaurants, coffee shops, stores, the museum and the Acropolis. Staying in this apartment gave us a true feeling of living in Greece rather than if we stayed in a hotel. The apartment was safe. Kostis communicated with us above and beyond through WhatsApp. He provided excellent food recommendations. He met us at the property and even stored our luggage for us since we arrived earlier than the checkin time. The beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed our stay!
• Andrea (8/5): Very good -
• Sipes (10/5): Excellent stay at the Foot of the Acropolis. - Check-in was seamless. Kostis accommodated our plea for early check-in after our overnight flight and instructions for self-check-in including location was seamless. Apartment was bright, with lots of natural sunlight, and very clean. Although we didn’t cook, the small kitchen seemed very adequate and we appreciated the refrigerator to keep our leftovers and waters cold. Kostis also gave excellent recommendations for dining and attractions and transfers. Location was excellent, just a few minutes walk to the Acropolis Museum. Check-out was just as seamless. Thank you Kostis for your wonderful hospitality. We would definitely love to stay at your apartment again while in Athens Nothing

• Rafał (10/5): It was marvelous! Location of the apartment and care of owner (Mr Kostis) created great excursion to Athens - Exeptional hospitality and professional approach of the owner of property Its typical old town settelment so is hard to expect super modern bathroom or so. Everything in line with expectations
• Martin (10/5): Nice apartment in a perfect location for the Acropolis - Spacious ground-floor apartment, a few yards from the New Acropolis Museum, and in easy walking distance of Acropolis, Agora, Pnyx, Plaka, etc.. Also with some good restaurants and shops very close by, but not on the main tourist trail. There are two double bedrooms, a living room, kitchen with dining table, bathroom with shower and washing machine, and also a second toilet. The hosts were very helpful in offering advice, recommending shops and restaurants, and arranging taxis, as well as offering a number of guided tours and other excursions. We accepted the offer for taxi transfers to and from the airport, for €45 each way, and it was a very good service.

• Greg (9/5): Superb - Our stay in the foothills of the Acropolis was made truly exceptional thanks to our incredible host. Right from the start, he went above and beyond, providing us with convenient and friendly transportation from the airport. He even helped arrange a wheelchair for my mom, which was a tremendous help. When we arrived at the apartment, our host was there to greet us, adding a personal touch to our welcome. Throughout the planning process, our host's communication was outstanding. He was very friendly and incredibly helpful with recommendations. Any questions we had were answered in a very timely manner, which made our trip preparations smooth and stress-free. The location of the apartment was perfect. It was clean, quiet, and exceptionally comfortable. We were happy to find that it was in close proximity to museums, restaurants, and, of course, the iconic Parthenon. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay during our Athens adventure.
• Eva (10/5): Wonderful location and host. - Kosti was a fabulous host. The location was great and the apartment had everything we needed. A closet in the 2nd bedroom would be a great addition, but it's just a small suggestion. The place is very well equipped.
• Tatyana (10/5): Awesome. I definitely will send my friends/ family to stay at this Great place! - The location of the appt, was a dream! Literally 1 min away from all hystorical sites! The tour around appartament upon arrival with explanation how to use some of devices was very helpful, The owner kindly provided us with converter that was very important in order to start charging our devices since US and Europe have different voltage. Trasfer from Airport to our Apptm was very helpfull and we were happy to add this service to our trip . We also ordered private tour through the Kostis and the lady-Guide was knowlegible, and gave us ample of time to look around the museum and Actropolis. Getting the private tour also saving lots of time cause you do not have to stand in long lines to get the entrace tickets. overall, all was an excellent!

Restaurants and bars too as well as markets are all right there. Kostis was super helpful and took in our bags when we arrived as the apartment was still being cleaned. By the time we got lunch and returned, the bags were in our apartment. A quick tour of the facilities and we were set. He was also very good at restaurant recommendations, taxi services and arranging guides for the visits to the attractions Nothing at all

• Lawrence (10/5): Perfect location for a family to explore Athens from - Fantastic location and super helpful and accommodating host. Kostis arranged for an airport transfer and met us to check-in at 2am. He helped us with suggestions for things to do, and places to eat throughout our stay. Located within a couple minutes walk from the Acropolis Museum, the best bakery in Athens, coffee shops, restaurants, and ice cream shops. Such a convenient location, we were able to return daily when the kids grew tired of walking and needed a break. You literally have a view of the Acropolis when you walk out the front door. Sound proofing in ceiling wasn't great, but thankfully we only heard the family above a handful of times.
• Sorin (10/5): Exceptional - Everything
• Einat (9/5): Superb -
• Robert (10/5): Kostos was so helpful and got back to us right away whenever we had a question. - Excellent location. We could easily walk to the Parthenon and to many good restaurants.
• Muhammad (9/5): Superb -
• Tammy (10/5): It was perfect! - Hosts Kostis and Liz are amazing - excellent communication! The apartment is as described, but even better. It was spotless and so many thoughtful touches were added (a little sewing kit, an umbrella, deck of cards, maps, etc) They even had a washing machine/dryer in the unit. I’d give everything about this place a 10+. Nothing - it was perfect!
• Sylvia (9/5): Superb -
• Fuad (9/5): Superb -
• Shelly (10/5): Apartment at the foothills of the Acropolis is a 10 out of 10. Amazing! - Apartment at the foothills of the Acropolis is a 10 out of 10. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and in the absolute best location. The surrounding neighbor was perfect, filled with shops, restaurants, grocery and convenience stores. And the apartment is literally at the base of the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum. Also, the host Kostis was so helpful during our stay, arranging a guided tour as well as airport pick up and drop off. We could not have been more pleased.
• Julian (10/5): A lovely, comfortable flat with all appropriate facilities and ideally located - Kostis provided helpful information before and on arrival and was courteous and supportive throughout, always available with suggestions and assistance. Not the fault of the owners, but people in flat above coming in and making lots of noise in the middle of the night two nights in a row
• Amir (10/5): Exceptional - Spacy apartment Great location Good recommendations and responsiveness from the host. Everything fitted our expectations and we enjoyed staying at the apartment.
• Rina (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment is amazing! Well equipped, clean, pleasant, amazing location and the host was extremely helpful! Highly recommended!!!
• Richard (9/5): What a great start to our Greek holiday! - Perfect location, communication with owners and affordable.
• José (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment is stunning, design and with all major city attractions within walking distance. Kostis was a very kind host, and has provided us lots of useful information. Absolutely recommended!
• Coughlin (10/5): Great location, amazing host, clean apartment. - We were extremely happy with our stay in this apartment. We are a family of five and only visiting Athens for two days. The location was spectacular (quiet but within walking distance of Acropolis, Plaka, etc). In addition, the actual neighborhood had excellent breakfast, bakeries, food, etc. The host Kostis went above and beyond. Especially because we were at the end of a longer Greece trip, weary and indecisive. He arranged transport to and from the airport which we appreciated. He also offered advice on tours that ended up saving us some money (we did not end up doing a particular tour). All of his suggestions for food were spot on- especially the Gelato place. We probably used the apartment more than most as one of my teenagers was pretty much done with walking/sight seeing in the heat so we were grateful for all the amenities the apartment offered (A/C, wifi, kitchen). Loved that the kitchen/apartment had more than the basic necessities (salt/pepper, olive oil, books on Greece, shampoo/conditioner, laundry detergent, etc). We would stay there again for sure. This wasn't really an issue but the host stated that the hot water heater may only provide enough hot water for 2-3 showers before you would need to wait 20 min. Honestly, we didn't have that experience - all of us were able to shower with hot water and we never needed to wait. Maybe that is only if you are taking VERY long showers. Also, just fyi- the second sofa bed is a tad short so I wouldn't count on it working for a really tall (over 6 ft) person but worked well for our kids.
• Martin (9/5): Great location close to the Acropolis - location was great, host was very helpful
