Guest Reviews
- עופריקו (9/5): מצוין - מיקום, גודל, ניקיון, ?
- Samuel (10/5): -
- Zainul (8/5): Very nice apartment in an ideal location. - It was ideally located in the heart of shopping and restaurants. The layout of the apartment was very nice. It was a bonus to have a washer/dryer in the apartment. There is a smell in the bathroom. Don’t know where it was coming from.
- Agnieszka (10/5): Beautiful apartment in great location - Beautiful, modern and stylishly decorated apartment in the central location. Close to shops, restaurants, coffee shops and main attractions. Everything what you need when you stay away from home is there incl. washing machine, dishwasher, iron, hairdryer etc. The bells of the Holy Metropolitan Church will wake you up quite early. But it is not up to the apartment - actually you will hear them everywhere in Plaka. On the other hand it can be handy if you planned to visit a lot of sights which require early wake up anyway.
- Domenico (10/5): - Struttura centralissima appartemnto stupendo da ritornare sicuramente
- Kiel (10/5): -
- Tasso (8/5): -
- Mohamad (10/5): Perfect accommodation for a great Greek holiday - The Property itself is very modern and nicely and convenietly designed! I would highly recommend if you staying for couple of days and need access to a kitchen and laundry! As for the location, it can’t get any better, whilst in the center and short walk to everything the the property is tucked away in a quiet street! Nothing to report tbh
- Salih Bugrahan (10/5): Great apartment to see main tourist attractions in the city easily. Very helpful and responsive staff. - Beautifully designed and fully equipped. Nothing.
- Thamar (8/5): Goed centraal gelegen appartement voor 2 (!) personen. - Prachtige locatie en een heel degelijk appartement, voorzien van alle gemak. Ze verhuren het appartement voor 3 personen, maar de derde persoon moet in een gewone zetel slapen. Het is geen slaapzetel en overigens niet comfortabel. Voor de hele duur van het verblijf, zijn er onvoldoende propere handdoeken.
- eduardo (10/5): -
- Савинец (10/5): - Дуже сподобалось проживання в цих апартаментах. Локація справді зручна — до багатьох основних місць в Афінах можна легко дійти пішки, поруч багато кафе та ресторанів.
Самі апартаменти виглядають як після свіжого ремонту: все нове, сучасне і дуже акуратне. Було приємно, що всередині дійсно чисто — це одразу створює відчуття комфорту.
Загалом залишились дуже хороші враження. Гарний варіант для проживання в Афінах, особливо якщо хочеться бути близько до всіх основних локацій міста.
- LAURA (8/5): - The apartment offered all the amenities required for a comfortable stay and was spotlessly clean. Its location was excellent, within walking distance of major sights, shops, and restaurants. The host was extremely responsive and accommodating, and graciously allowed us a short late checkout so we could catch our flight. The only downside was an unpleasant smell coming from the toilet drains.
- ANA (10/5): Lo recomendamos - Es un apartamento perfecto. Limpio, nuevo, cómodo y bien ubicado. Únicamente hemos echado de menos un microondas, pero no es nada relevante. Todo ha estado genial.
- Stephen (10/5): great location and a truly lovely apartment - location and decor wonderfull the code being received earlier a s we were flying in from Spain, without code confirmation
and had issues logging in to booking .com
a few more coffee pods and teabags would be a welcoming gesture
- Ertunc (9/5): - LOKASYON ÇOK MERKEZİ. ANAHTAR SİSTEMİ İYİ ÇALIŞIYOR. ODA BÜYÜKLÜĞÜ ÇOK İYİ
- Georgia (10/5): -
- Πλεμενου (10/5): The best apartment in Athens overall - Amazing apartment! Clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. Great location and a wonderful overall experience. Highly recommended!
- Alexandra (10/5): - Sehr moderne Ausstattung und tip Lage
- Sapir (10/5): -
- david (10/5): - good location! good service!
- Parashos (3/5): - Η τοποθεσία Οι μυρωδιες ηταν πολυ εντονες. Απο την εισοδο του κτηριου μεχρι και το δωματιο μυριζε πολυ ασχημα.οι μυρωδιες ερχοντουσαν απο το μπανιο και η μόνη λύση ηταν να μεινει η πόρτα κλειστεί.
Δεν υπηρχε σωστη επικοινωνια με τον οικοδεσποτη.
- Sophia (9/5): Convenient apartment in the heart of Athens - Check-in instructions were easy. Great location, close to everything and convenient in terms of different public transport types. It was a bit noisy outside at night, but it didn't bother us. And it's understandable, considering the location.
It's good value for the money.
The only thing I'd mention that might be improved is availability of slippers and rugs on the floor. Otherwise all was great.
- SOUZANA (10/5): - Άριστη τοποθεσία, πολύ ωραίος χώρος!
- Sabine (7/5): -
- Suzanne (7/5): -
- Tracey (8/5): -
- Dejan (10/5): Za svaku preporuku. - Stan je bio odlican, u samom srcu desavanja. Bolja lokacija nije mogla biti. Sve je na pesackoj udaljenosti . Za svaku preporuku. Bas nemam ni jednu zamerku .
- Raquel14as (8/5): - La ubicación es excelente. El apartamento muy limpio y renovado. La cama y las almohadas comodísimas.
- George Schinas (6/5): Καλο αλλά πολλά μείον. - Τοποθεσία, άνεση Καθαριότητα. Επίσης η τουαλέτα μυριζε πολύ άσχημα όπως επίσης το καζανακι δεν δούλευε σωστα και είτε να μην γεμίζει είτε να τρέχει το νερό.
Γενικά θα πρέπει να συντηρηθεί το κατάλυμα.
- Tara (9/5): A great experience for my first time in Athens. - Lovely and spacious, also in a great location. I'd definitely stay here again. The church bells.
- Sabina (7/5): -
- Sarah (9/5): Elegant apartment in excellent location - Elegantly decorated and furnished apartment in excellent location. Very modern. TV between bedroom and sitting area (on a swivel) a genius idea. I was a solo female traveller and I felt safe walking around this area late at night. Lots of bars and restaurants within easy walking distance. Some dishwasher pods would have been handy, but it's a very minor point.
- Ying (6/5): -
- Olga (10/5): - Just amazing! Perfect walking distance to everything, couldn’t have picked a better place to stay. Will be booking again
- Christelle (9/5): -
- Kia (10/5): Perfect location, safe area, and very clean/nice! Good host. - Perfect studio apartment for family of 3 (2 adults and one young teen). The host was communicative and checked in with us to see if we needed anything along the way. The door codes were well communicated a few days ahead of time by booking.com and then again by the host. The bed was actually the best sleep I received on our trip. Great location- safe, but walking distance to Plaka, Monastiraki, Acropolis, bakeries, restaurants etc.
Clean, 3 locking doors entrance to building, hallway to rooms, and then your room. Clever amenities like small dishwasher, clothing wash machine that is also a dryer, great air conditioning. Would stay again! You do hear church bells somewhat early in the morning around 7am or so, but it was worth it for the location!! Nothing notable
- clyde (10/5): Nice - Cleanliness and security Just had to haul the garbage to the dumpster 2 blocks away
- Erhan (6/5): decent - location was great, apartment was nice with a good size. there was a bed smell in the whole apartment
- Cheryl (1/5): Great location but due to the overwhelming stench of sewer gas and filthy floors I’ll never be back. - The location was great and the apartment layout was nice. That’s about it. We booked this apartment for three days. When we first arrived we noticed all the windows were open, then the smell of sewer gas hit us. It was so bad in the bathroom that it made it almost impossible to use. Even with the bathroom door shut, the smell overwhelmed the apartment. After laying down on the bed I realized the bottoms of my socks were black due to the floors. I honestly don’t know if the floors have ever been mopped. The entire apartment floor was covered in dirt, hair and stains. We advised the staff of both situations and ONE DAY LATER they sent somebody up to pour some liquid into the drains, which did absolutely nothing. We asked them if they could send someone to clean the floors and they asked us to send them some pictures. We immediately sent them pictures of the floors and they told us they could have the cleaning crew come THE NEXT DAY. Day three came and went and nobody ever showed up. Now we’re realizing, after reading other reviews, that the sewer smell is an ongoing issue. You can literally smell it in the stairwell as you ascending to the apartment. It’s really a shame, because it looks like the really put some effort into the layout and design of the apartment but due to the sewer smell and poor management I’ll never be back.
- george (10/5): - Location was perfect. Beautiful modern apartment with a large shower. Walking distance to all the beautiful sites in Athens. Nothing. It was perfect
- Rachael (10/5): - location was great, the unit was perfect for the 3 of us.
- Andrew (2/5): - Avoid. Communication was terrible. Owner had multiple opportunities to ask us on the Hotels.com platform to complete the online form which he failed to do which meant we were left waiting outside the property with nobody to speak to. The local business helped us out and also tried to contact the owner telling us that this is not the first time it's happened and that other people have experienced poor communication.
We had to find accommodation for two nights due to this whilst still being charged by the property owner.
- John (8/5): Two night stay in the old town of Plaka, just 5 mins walk from the Pantheon! Loads of excellent restaurants and bars nea - Location and interior design of the apartment. Hosts were friendly and very responsive to messages. Parking was expensive
- Lukas (3/5): Nice but bad smelling apartment - Good and quiet location. Nicely furnished apartment. The apartment has a problem with the drains. The whole place smelled like sewage. The landlord always replied quickly and in a friendly manner, but didn’t really have a solution and couldn’t offer a move to a non-smelling apartment.
- Julio (9/5): -
- Diane (8/5): - Very nice and cute apartment but be prepared for the constant sewer smell in the stairwell
- Angela (9/5): Would gladly stay here again. - The apartment was spacious, modern and well equipped. The location was brilliant for being able to walk everywhere easily. The only down side was I wish the bedroom had been fully separate and not studio style.
- Richard (10/5): Relaxing stay & Wonderful Apartment! - Everything, felt like home. Just loved the place. Having a lift for luggage was such a relief 🤗 Nothing
- Elizabeth (10/5): Sight seeing in Athens, wining and dining - Such a handy spot and very safe with good security. Close to everything but quiet too! We loved it. We could walk everywhere.
- Donovan (9/5): - The location was perfect. The Apartment was beautifully decorated.
- sarah (10/5): - The property was in a wonderful location, close to many restaurants and other attractions. It was extremely comfortable and well appointed.
- Payam (10/5): - Luxury apartment in an excellent area!
- Jane (7/5): A lovely location. Safe, clean. Would recommend but would set better expectations. - It was in a great location. The size was great. It was very tastefully furnished. It had no microwave. There was no ironing board, but there was an iron. The duvet cover was stained when we took it out of the cupboard. There was no cutting board and the kitchen had the minimal of kitchen utensils.
- Stephen (10/5): Amazing location and fantastic hosts - Amazing location and felt very secure. Great facilities and the owner was very accommodating as we arrived earlier than expected
- Nuala (8/5): -
- Mary (10/5): Excellent, in every way. On line Communication & instructions were excellent - This is the second time we’ve chosen to stay at this apartment. Excellent location, walking distance to all main attractions and restaurants.
Very spacious, full kitchen & washing facilities I actually cannot fault anything
- BULENT (10/5): -
- Sadie (9/5): Superb -
- Kiran (8/5): Lovely stay in a perfect location! - The property was in the perfect location! Everything was walking distance! The property itself was beautiful and spacious and very clean. The code entrance for the apartment door caused a lot of issues during our stay as it would never open the door the first time. A few times I had to message the hosts to get me into the apartment as we would be stuck outside for ages! Eventually we got the keys to the apartment instead of using the door code as it was temperamental. The hosts were quick to respond on all occasions though even when it was late at night.
- Ava (10/5): Great stay !! - Beautiful apartment and
Close to shopping Nothing
- Kelly (9/5): Lovely apartment on a quiet street in the heart of Plaka - Perfect location. Very quiet and clean Nothing!
- Irene (7/5): Great location, very clean and aesthetically pleasing - Location is superb! The toiletries should be upgraded. There was no hair conditioner or body lotion- which should be staples.
Also- a full size ironing board. It was very hard to iron a dress on the flimsy mini ironing board.
Also, there were only 3 coffee pods. If you truly would like your guests to have an exceptional experience- some more niceties would be appreciated. Bottles of water for example. The cost is so small and the reward in experience is so great.
- Botha (10/5): Highly recommend. - Wonderful apartment Have everything you need.Location excellent.
Communication with entry to apartment.10/10.
- Kelly (8/5): Great location in heart of it all - We had a good experience at the UpStreet Luxury Apartments in Plaka. The location was Devine - centrally located to everything. Huge downside that I didn’t think through when I was planning is that there isn’t a front desk/concierge, so there wasn’t anyone available to help with tours, suggestions or to answer questions. Not a big deal if you know your way around. Accommodations were clean and as describe, however, the building/room had a bad smell - perhaps the folks who rented it before us had brought in food and left it in the room for too long or maybe the neighboring apartment was cooking with pungent spices, either way the smell hit you when you walked in and was obvious for our entire three day stay.
- Octavio (10/5): - Excelente hospedaje, super lindo y cercano a acropolis.
- Mehrdad (2/5): - This property will not provide you with any informations until the day of your check-in !
on the day of our check-in which was for 5 nights We were told by email that we needed to pay additional taxes that was not even mentioned or specified on Expedia’s website !
they would not allow access to the apartment unless the fees were paid in advanced regardless of what was written on the Expedia’s website
Also Expedia was puzzled about additional taxes when we contacted them about this issue
Furthermore this property does not provide any kind of services that is customarily provided by the many hosts.
once you checked-in regardless of number of days you stay with them, you will not receive any services.
Be prepared for
No cleaning
No soap or shampoo
No toilet papers
Not enough towels
Not enough blankets
Also Poor communication
You are on your own once you check-in
Hope the owners read this review
By the way we had booked this place for 5 nights
- Tanja (9/5): Superb -
- Paula (8/5): - Great location, very convenient to everything! Was able to walk everywhere. Room was clean, was able to do my laundry as well. The shower was draining slowly though so it flooded a bit, but otherwise a great stay!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location, very convenient!
- Craig (9/5): Would stay again - Location, size of apartment All good, maybe some more coffee pods (small thing)
- Sakina (10/5): - We stayed here for over a week and enjoyed the central location in Plaka. Walkable and plenty of dining options in an around the apartment. The check in and check out process was super easy and no hassle.
- Paul (9/5): Definitely recommend to others. - Location was perfect. Plenty of space and very clean. So many places to eat nearby and you could easily walk to main attractions. No book giving you all the information regarding the accommodation could be found.
- Narayan (4/5): - Everything is fine with the area. Plaka is excellent area to be there. But there was an issue with door lock of the property. We were stuck for multiple times. I called the property management number what was provided and after multiple attempts one person answer she listened to me and than she says will call you in next 10 mins which she never did and when I contacted the property management it went to voice mail with no answer. Communication is very poor. They do not deserve even 1 Star. Imagine the tourist had to go through where they cannot enter the house. Finally we were able to get in but than after that we never locked the door. We complained property management they never helped. All they did is code change but the issue is with the door lock not the code.
- Varun (10/5): - Great location, super clean and safe!
- Nevenka (10/5): - Getting in was hard, everything eles was great
- Nikolaos (1/5): Bad - We arrived on Friday at noon, and although check-in was at 15:00, they called us to come an hour later. Even when we arrived at 16:30, the cleaners were still in the room. The air conditioning wasn’t working, and there wasn’t even a blanket provided. The sofa had hair on it and we even found two lighters, which made us questions how well the room was actually cleaned.On top of that, every time we used the water, we heard strange noises coming from the WC. When we asked if we could check out a little later—since we didn’t get the room on time anyway—they told us we’d have to pay an extra €30 just for an additional hour! Completely unacceptable service. We will definitely not be staying here again.
- Margaret (5/5): It was a good location. - Lacking cleanliness. Broken basin tap.
- cetin (10/5): - Property is very clean, nicely decorated, spacious and close to all activities. We walked everywhere for sightseeing, dinner and grocery needs. Communication with landlord was not easy but we sort it out some how. The only problem we had was the humidity smell in bathroom and rattling noice on fan coil system. It was not a huge deal but it has to be fixed by the landlord.
- Chrissania (10/5): Sleek, Stylish & Sophisticated - This property is Sleek, Stylish & Sophisticated. It is in the perfect location, right in the centre of Plaka and it was so easy to walk to all the shops and restaurants and souvenir shops. The locals are super friendly. The self check- in process was super easy, and we were provided with all the necessities and it made our stay comfortable and unforgettable. The host was available if we needed any help and/or advice. Will definitely recommend 100/10 ! Nothing. Everything was perfect :)
- Eni (9/5): Superb -
- Victoria (10/5): A beautiful apartment in the heart of Plaka - My husband and I have just returned from an almost two week stay over Christmas and New Year in our beautiful apartment and we couldn't be happier.
A very chic, comfortable, spacious apartment in stunning Plaka with all of the amenities you could ever need for a long stay. We managed to cook a full Christmas lunch in the lovely kitchen and settled down most evenings to watch all of our favourite festive films on the smart TV that rotates, so you can watch it from the sofa or the super comfy bed.
The hosts were exceptional and very responsive with anything we needed or any questions that we had during our stay.
Thank you to all of the team at Upstreet, we'll most definitely be back. N/A
- Becky (10/5): You must stay here - The apartment was beautifully designed, modern and spacious, it met all our needs, the apartment has a washer/dryer and kitchen area, in the late evenings we were able to Netflix and chill.
The apartment is situated in a beautiful area of Plaka, there is a church close by, you can hear the church bells and birds singing in the trees.
Access into the building and apartment was easy, you are given door codes, including a storage area where you can leave suitcases if you arrive before check in, the key code for the storage room is on the door handle.
The host was very helpful, responding timely to questions and generally sending messages asking if we were okay,.
We had the best experience and will definitely come back again.
Overall we were lucky this was our first visit to Athens, we chose the best area to stay in, we had the best apartment, it was relatively quiet during the late evenings/nights, everyone was helpful and friendly, so thank you again to our hosts for a wonderful stay. Nothing we had the best experience
- Sachin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Saar (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment was in an excellent central and quiet location, making it easy to explore the area and relax afterward. Check-in was smooth, and the apartment was easy to find. It was also fully equipped with everything needed for a comfortable week-long stay. Highly recommended!
- Brenda (8/5): Lovely apartment in great location Plaka - Location. Cleanliness of apartment.
- Mara (7/5): Plaka perfection but stinky plumbing - Location: The location is perfect, in the best part of the Plaka. Close to monuments, great restaurants, and shopping.
Amenities: Stylish and comfortable, all the amenities you need for a home away from home. The sewage smell in the bathroom was constant. We called for plumbing assistance. They sent the maid with paper towels, instead of a plumber. That took 3 days before plumber arrived. After he cleaned the sink, shower and toilet traps, the smell got better but never went away. We kept the bathroom door closed to keep the sewage smell out of the rest of the apartment.
The unit has tile flooring. The floors were really dirty. They looked like they hadn't been cleaned in months.
It looked like the whole unit had not been cleaned before we arrived.
Didn't bother us but the church bells chime every 30 min, another enthusiastically daily at 5:30am.
- Geoffrey (10/5): - Very clean, comfortable and well equipped. Ideal location for sight seeing.
- Susanty (5/5): We’ll not stay here again, there are many other places to choose in Athens with better services & hospitality. The o - Location is great, room is clean, just what we expected from what we paid. Nothing really WOW us The service! There was only 1 bottle of water, we paid for 3 adults and stayed for 2 nights, they could at least give 3 bottles. The towel warmer was not working & when we reported, they didn’t even bother to check! It’s health & safety matters, they should’ve at least showed concern.
- Nancy (10/5): - Very nice property. The unit has a washer/dryer. My only complaint is the lack of lighting in the stairwell. We used the elevator instead
- Marina (8/5): Lovely stay in a central location in Athens - The apartment is nicely decorated and is at a perfect location to explore the city. Everything you need for a short stay is available in the apartment. The host is friendly and responds quicly. The bathroom had a terrible smell. It didn't go away and it smelled like a sewer. I complained to the host about it, she repied and said that de cleaningteam would take care of the smell, but that never happened. I think there is a problem with the sewarage and it can not be easily fixed.
- Christopher (9/5): Superb - Overall was great choice for me. I stayed for 12 nights which this place was perfect for the longer stay. The location is as good as it gets in my opinion. Right below the Acropolis, you can literally see parts of the pantheon steps outside the door. It’s near to a ton of markets, cafes, restaurants. Walking distance to all the main sights in Athens. Well equipped apartment to make some simple meals. Comfortable bed (a bit firm which I like) the AC worked well and the place felt spacious and very secure. I’d stay again. The combo washer/dryer was difficult to understand and not sure I ever really figured it out. The building is in one of the oldest parts of town so you do occasionally get a sewer smell but it’s an ancient city so…..
- Ferdinand (6/5): Pleasant -
- Lisa (8/5): Very good -
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great space - Nice one bedroom Apartment in the Plaka area. Super clean and convenient. Would definitely stay here again.
- Usman (5/5): Excellent location but could choose a better apartment - The location is excellent. All restaurants, shops and attractions are within walking distance. Cleaning is below average. Dirty washroom and sofa cover. No amenities provided except utensils.
- Beatrice (9/5): Superb - Bot applicable
- Mary (8/5): Very good -
- Jo (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sara (6/5): Location was good, but I can’t recommend anything else with complete satisfaction. - It was very central around the main attractions in Athens. Close to the Acropolis and other historic monuments. The apartment was handed over to me at 3pm at the expected check-in time, however it was not ready despite the heads up from my end.
The floors were not cleaned, linens were stripped off the bed and the kept in the room, and we’ve had to compromise by letting someone in to install the new sheets and collect the old ones. Nevertheless the apartment was still uncleaned (footprints everywhere, dead insects, and dusty).
The cleaner also entered the apartment before the checkout time while we were still in, which makes security and privacy an issue.
Given how punctual (early) the cleaner wanted to be in, it is surprising the state in which the apartment was handed over to me.
