Guest Reviews
- Ida (9/5): Perfect location and room with all we needed. - Location was amazing, very short distance to all places. There could have been a some sort of small dining table for eating (the sofa table is very low), but this is a minor thing. It didn’t bother us much but it was something that came to my mind.
- Křivohlávková (10/5): - Super místo, všude blízko. Škoda jen, že byla zima a nemohli jsme využít balkónek. Byly by tam krásné snídaně. V kuchyňce byl i jar, káva...to oceňuji. Naproti stavěli už od pěti ráno dělníci, ale za to nemůže ubytovatel. A prostě prošli lepší úklid.
- LAMPROS (8/5): - Κοντά στο σταθμό Μετρό
- FloryDumi (10/5): -
- hüseyin (8/5): Çok iyi bir lokasyon, rahat bir yatak - Yer muhteşem Toilette needs to be fixed
- Manuela (9/5): Appartamento carino ed accogliente - Appartamento carino ed accogliente. In posizione centrale e vicina a locali.
Ha tutto il necessario per il soggiorno.
Angolo cottura molto piccolo, che abbiamo utilizzato solo per fare il caffè.
Ci sono state fornite tutte le info per effettuare il self check-in e istruzioni per prendere le chiavi e accedere all’appartamento. Un po’ rumoroso, ma comunque zona tranquilla.
- Dok (5/5): - Kahvaltı almadık. Konumu merkezi Klima çalışmıyor. Odanın içi buz gibi. Sıcak su bir süre sonra soğupa dönüyor. Dışarda inşaat sesinden uyuyamıyorsunuz
- Oleh (9/5): - Great location - right in the heart of Athens, with the metro and a store within 5 minutes. The apartment has most of the basic amenities. There’s no washing machine, but on the first floor there’s a service that completely makes up for it. You’d have to wait 30 minutes for the water to heat up before taking a shower. In the morning that was really annoying.
- Daniel (8/5): -
- Athanasios (8/5): - Το διαμέρισμα ήταν σε κεντρικό σημείο.
Το κεντρικό δωμάτιο ήταν ευρύχωρο και ανακαινισμένο. Η είσοδος της πολυκατοικίας είχε άσχημη μυρωδιά.
Το μπάνιο ήταν μικρό.
- Barbara (5/5): Basic and good apartment if you want to stay in the centre - The property's location is excellent, just a few minutes from the Acropolis. Communication with the owners was friendly, and their responses were quick. There was coffee and tea available. The bed and the bedding were comfortable. It was quite noisy around 5 am because of street cleaning. The neighbor left a dog in the apartment all day, and the poor animal was howling and barking loudly every afternoon desperately wanting to go out.

- Joshua (10/5): - Well situated and great views from the balcony. Found bathroom a bit odd.
- Stefanie (8/5): Insgesamt eine sehr erfreuliche Unterkunft in einer lebendigen Nachbarschaft. - Sehr netter, zuvorkommender und fürsorglicher Gastgeber, der zwar persönlich nicht in Erscheinung getreten ist, aber jederzeit ansprechbar war. Super Preis-Leistungsverhältnis, absolut zentrale Lage, schnuckelige Wohnung. Es war nachts durchgehend recht laut in den zwei Nächten, die ich dort war. Das lag einerseits an der Klimaanlage (oder einem anderen Gerät, das außen hing) von gegenüber, die regelmäßig immer wieder angeschmissen wurde. Aber auch am Nachtleben, was dort vor der Tür stattfindet.
- Lenin Albert (8/5): - Está muy bien ubicado La cocina es muy incómoda al igual que el baño, y no tienen servido de cambio de sábanas ni toallas
- Ophélie (8/5): Emplacement idéal - L’emplacement est IDÉAL ! Nous avons tout fait à pied pendant notre séjour (excepté l’arrivée depuis l’aéroport évidemment).
L’hôte est très réactif aux messages ! Attention, la cuisine est très petite. Ça suffit pour faire des petits déjeuner. En revanche, il n’y a pas de torchons et d’égouttoir. Donc compliqué de faire la vaisselle…
Aussi c’est dommage de devoir attendre 30min pour prendre une douche chaude.
Le logement est situé au cœur de la ville, on s’attendait bien sûr à entendre des bruits qui proviennent de la rue mais pas forcément des voisins : les murs sont très minces.
- Cloé (9/5): Fabuleux séjour au cœur d’Athènes. - Emplacement parfait et idéal,
Petit appartement mignon et confortable disposant de tout l’équipement nécessaire, informations liées à l’arrivée et l’installation très claires et précises. Je recommande ++ Hélas nous sommes tombés durant une période de travaux nocturnes dans la rue du logement ce qui a rendu les nuits plus que bruyantes et pas très reposantes, le chantier étant en face de l’appartement..
- Eduardo (7/5): Muy cómodo y cerca de todo - La comunicación con el propietario La cocina un poco apretada , pero bien
- Micheline (8/5): -
- Eduardo (10/5): Great small apartment in the best area in town! - Excellent location. The instructions and guides were very clear. We didn't encounter any issues at all Everything was great
- Carolin (8/5): Our stay here at this apartment and the city of Athens was fantastic!! - The location was amazing! It is within a 10 minute walk to everything we wanted to see. The information given to us about the apartment before we arrived which included pictures and a video, allowed our arrival and use of the facilities to be seamless without struggle. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and will recommend it highly to anyone considering renting it. Towards the end of our stay the neighbours dogs were communicating a lot more often.
- Donnat (8/5): Little Gem in Monastiraki - The location was great. Walking distance to everything. Little gem in the heart of everything. Only small negative, construction work nearby starts early.
- Monisha (9/5): Excellent Location - This is one of the best location you can stay in in Athens. Close to metro, close to airport bus, close to great restaurants, close to acropolis. You are basically at the heart of plaka and it is still not noisy. Also, i recommend, if arriving late, you can prebook their transfer service. The driver was genuinely one of the nicest driver we met.
The property had everything you can ask for. And the hosts are very easily reachable. The washroom was not the nicest. Its pretty small and kind of old but clean. I think if some shelves can be added to the shower area, it will seem more convenient.
- Monika (9/5): Superb -
- Alec (10/5): Exceptional -
- Corby (10/5): Exceptional -
- Soteris (8/5): Very good -
- Jacqueline (10/5): Excellent! Lovely studio, in a great location and less than 15 minute walk from the main attractions. Highly recommend! - Everything! N/A
- Jason (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mihai (10/5): Great getaway place - The apartment is wonderfully located, in walking distance (10 min) to the South slopes entrance to Acropolis, in the middle of the bustling tourist area close to Monastiraki. We enjoyed the convenience of walking everywhere.
The staff was helpful in arranging an extra night of stay when we got stuck in the city as a result of a strike that cancelled all air traffic.
We could not have asked for more.
- Patrik (9/5): Superb - Cosy apartment with best location for exploring city centre of Athens. Self check-in and all information about property on their own portal. I really recommend this place!
- George (9/5): Superb -
- Hazem (8/5): Very good -
- Antonia (10/5): Very nice - Very good location.
The apartment is very cozy and nice and has everything you might need.
I enjoyed very much the cute balcony also.
We had a great time. -
- Italoukate (9/5): Superb -
- François-gérald (9/5): Superb -
- Paola (10/5): Perfect location for leisure purpose - Great location. Make some improvements in the bathroom, such as shelves in the shower for the shampoo and body soap.
- Amy (9/5): Great location, clean and fresh and comfortable - Great location and had everything you need! Clean and comfortable! The hot water switch kept flickering so we had cold showers one night but we clicked on and then everything was fine. Just something to watch out for!
- J (10/5): Exceptional - Clean, comfortable and super central. Literally steps from Plaka, Psirri, The Acropolis etc. Check-in process was seamless.
Remarkably quiet for such a central area.
- Susan (7/5): Great location. - The location Very small. A few hooks in the bathroom would be appreciated.
- Nicola (9/5): Superb - Perfect room for two people, had enough room to walk around and had a nice little balcony. The door was a little hard to work out in the beginning and the shower was small.
- Noemi (8/5): Perfect location in Plaka - Perfect location in the heart of Plaka and close to Monastiraki metro station, in a very safe area. Cozy studio, with all requirements for a short stay in Athens. Recommended!
- Stephanie (9/5): Superb -
- Wenjing (8/5): Very good - The room and location is good. Easy to explore core Athens. The door is not easy to be opened by the key.
- Sarah (8/5): Very good - We loved this location! Truly was right in a heart of everything, and easy to make it to everywhere from the Acropolis to clubs in Psirri to even Mount Lycabettus on foot. It is right on one of the main shopping strips and we felt very safe even walking at night. Our host was very responsive and kind, and the AC made it so refreshing to walk back into after some exploring in the heat. Would definitely come again!
- Emma (9/5): Superb -
- Anita (8/5): Very good - Very central location to shops attractions and the train station.
- Carl (8/5): Very good -
- Deborah (10/5): Great location and very comfortable place to stay - Great location. Easy to self check in and out with the information provided by Nasos. Small balcony, air conditioning, good sized room and bathroom. All good for us. The kitchen/cooking area is quite compact in the apartment. With many good cafes restaurants and bars around we didn’t eat or drink at the apartment.
- Caryn (8/5): Very good -
- Gabrielle (8/5): Excellent location, apartment was very clean, and host was easy to communicate with! -
- Claudine (5/5): Good and simple studio in touristy area - Very good location for tourists to visit the city. The studio is located just below Akropolis in the very lively and touristy neighborhood Plaka. Plenty of restaurants and tourist shops are just around the corner. The apartment is very basic and equipped with just enough to make some coffee in the morning. There is a small fridge, and a small balcony with a chair and a table. The walls are very thin in this studio. You can hear the neighbors and especially their big dog barking. Which was literally barking all morning, every morning. It was frankly almost unbearable. We had a couple of ants in the studio, not sure where they came from.
- Eddy (9/5): Superb location, great value, perfect for a single person or a couple - I mean, you just could not ask for a better location. You get on the Metro at the airport, you stop at Monasteraki station, and the apartment is a quick 5 minute walk. A walk that took us about 2 hours because of the amount of gorgeous little cafes all the way there! The little shops and charming little alleyways, seriously, your holiday starts before you even set foot in the place. The place in itself is great value for the money you're paying. You are bang in the middle of everything. The Acropolis is a 15-minute walk-up of some steps and a little hill. The markets are at your doorstep. You get out of the door, and whichever direction you turn, there is something to discover and to savour. The studio is spacious enough for a couple. The bed is comfortable, the shutters keep the light away in the morning, and you will get a good night sleep because it is a surprisingly quiet street at night. There isn't much not to like, but if I were to give the hosts a friendly advice, I would say a small refurb of the toilet and shower facilties would go a long way for taking this place from a 9 to a 10.
- Olivier (7/5): Good -
- Janet (8/5): Very good -
- Lora (9/5): Superb - Perfect location, in a quiet street, we liked very much. Highly recommended for a touristic visit to Athens. A kitchen towel, a cutting board and a corkscrew were missing. The little pot does not fit for this stove
- Soňa (5/5): Passable - Accommodation in a nice area of Athens, very close to the main sites and monuments. I would not recommend staying in the apartment during winter. We were there during February and even though it is claimed that they have heating - the radiator, does not work. Moreover, the air condition is very old and it did not heat the apartment at all. So most of the time, it was really cold in the apartment. There are not even some blankets, which is pitty. Moreover, to take a shower, you need to turn on the boiler and then wait 30 minutes to wash yourself. The water comes hot and you need to mix it up with cold one to have a proper shower. I would not anticipate this at such kind of apartment. The last thing - TV does not work very much, no BBC channel, and wifi stopped working at the last day of our stay.
- Lilia (9/5): Superb - Great location
- Mark (8/5): Very enjoyable - Great location Facilities for leaving luggage after check out could be better- suggested luggage storage a long walk for an old couple
- Kate (8/5): Perfect location! Would stay again! - Best location ever!
Quiet and good size bed. Air con was hard to use and get to right temperature.
- Dasdom (10/5): Exceptional - Just like the name says, it's literally in the heart of the acropolis. Walking distance to everything, including the metro. The apartment is beautiful, spacious, and clean.
- Elzette (9/5): Superb - Lovely central location.
- Christie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kevin (7/5): Good - Great location. Good for a short stay
- Irene (10/5): Exceptional -
- Eleni (10/5): Very cozy apartment in a superb location! - Really enjoyed how easy it was to find the lockbox for the key. Having the video sent to us prior to us arriving, which showed us the surroundings as well as where the lockbox was, was super helpful. The host was very easy to reach and responded quickly to messages. The front door to the building is gorgeous and definitely worth taking pictures in front of it! Location was great.
- Terri-ann (9/5): Perfect little place - Great location, within walking distance of pretty much all the sights and plenty of bars/restaurants. Easy to find with host information.
Small apartment but perfect for a few days of sightseeing in the city. Didn't attempt to use the kitchen apart from the small fridge and glasses. There are so many choices to eat out locally.
Very comfortable bed and seating area. The shower has great water pressure, which is always a bonus for washing long hair.
Host very helpful. Nothing really to complain about.
- Nicole (8/5): Very good - It was in a great safe and central location. The host was helpful and kind.
- Hansen (9/5): Superb - The apartment was great, and so was the location.
We will absolutely stay there again.
- Stamenović (9/5): Superb - Premium location, great staff, really friendly and helpful. Comfortable bed, and the apartment was really clean. Shower was little bit tight.
- Meira (1/5): Would not recommend for solo female travelers - Communication with host and apartment details was mediated by a third party app, which was difficult to access when I didn’t have good phone service.
The keys were located in a lockbox a door down from the apartment building which required watching a separate YouTube video on for how to find — not my idea of a comfortable and easy check in process.
The apartment unit was located in a large building that was largely unmarked and had no signage. There was no reception or directory and was far too quiet and empty for my personal comfort levels. This listing is more like an AirBnB (host himself described it as such over texts) than a hotel apartment, which I had expected. I did not feel safe entering alone at night, and would not recommend to any solo female travelers. This is not what I was expecting from something listed on Booking.com.
There was also a massive cockroach in the apartment! When I reached out, the host was not sympathetic to my concerns. I understand there was a heat wave occurring, but I should not be expected to pay to stay in an apartment with cockroaches under any circumstances.
I ended up leaving after the first night due to the cockroach and my discomfort, which I’ve never had to do before. Did not receive any kind of refund from the host.
- Karly (4/5): BE VERY CAREFUL. WE HAD A BREAK IN AND STUFF STOLEN - - very good location, walking distance to acropolis and major sites/shopping/food
- room is nicely decorated - Very very very poor security
- We were victims of a break in during our stay and had all our jewellery and laptop stolen and room ransacked while we were out
- apartment building that screams dodgy (all other rooms appear to be permanent residents and this one room is very obviously used only for tourists making you an easy target, I’m very surprised the reviews don’t reflect this and more issues havnt happened)
- no safe/lockbox to secure belongings
- shared balcony with neighbouring unit and a door that doesn’t lock properly (this gave access into our room and a small divider between the two rooms had been moved by the offenders which are most likely from this neighbouring unit as it’s the only way to access the balcony)
- no personal contact with host - all check in is via a lock box and is done by yourself and a electronic guide (won’t suit all travelers)
- no hot water in the shower
- room and bathroom is very small
- Mark (7/5): Good -
- Kathleen (8/5): Very good -
- Florian (9/5): Superb -
- Michelle (10/5): Exceptional - Couldn't fault it. Clean, central and Nasos was so helpful throughout our stay.
- Monika (10/5): Beyond expectation - Plaka is the oldest district of Athens. It has its charm, pulse, but also a lot of people moving in the narrow alleys. It contributes to a place that is alive in the historical. The present and history meet. Close to everything. But a GPS in the mobile phone is an advantage. Otherwise easy to go around in circles :-)
The apartment was nice, functional. Everything was there. Pleasant, comfortable beds.
Host very helpful. The neighbours was friendly and helpful. I cannot find anything special. Too much tourists, maybe but I was one of them, so I can´t complain.
- Mskhan28 (8/5): A nice place to stay! - The location was good. It is a 5 minutes walk from Monastiraki train station. You can take the metro blue line directly from the airport to reach Monastiraki (it is pretty far from the airport so saves you money instead of taking a cab). The flea market and other shops are so close and you can buy souvenirs at the cheapest rate as compared to other parts of Athens. There are many many restaurants in the area. The apartment itself is good. It has a kitchen as well with all the necessary equipment (hot plate, cattle, dishes and pans, toaster, sandwich maker etc) and you can even cook your own food. The bedroom is small but nice. Good for the solo traveler, even for a couple but not more. Iron and a hairdryer are also provided. A small balcony with two chairs as well. Please watch the video they send you after the booking to know how to get the keys and how to enter the apartment. There is no reception or anything like that and you are on your own. It has a small private bathroom as well with amenities. Close to Acropolis (10-15 min walk) and other famous historical places are also within 20-30 min easy walk. Not really a very posh area so set the right expectations. The kitchen is very small and it is not very easy if you are cooking anything but still doable. The shower enclosure in the bathroom is also very small. But still a nice place for few days.
- Aaron (9/5): Superb -
