Guest Reviews
- Annegret (2/5): - Location was nice We stayed in the flat for 4 nights. It was alright overall, but many things we didn’t enjoy, that’s why we want to inform others here or give the team of the flat the opportunity to change things. The location of the flat though was amazing - many nice restaurants and bars in the area, so we didn’t mind the noise so much, because we knew, it’s just the area.
Due to a strike of the ferries we had to leave one day early and the team of the flat did not even consider in giving the possibility to shorten our stay, even though we told them before our arrival. Hours after we texted them, that we have left the flat now one day early, they sent us an (automated?) message with instructions how to leave the flat.
The light in the hallway outside the flat was not working. We told the team of the flat, but they didn’t respond to the message. So you would always have to turn on the torch of your cellphone to find the elevator or the keyhole.
Outside on the terrace the possibilities to sit were dirty.
The WiFi was very very slow, so we couldn’t use it.
There was a weird heat coming down from the ceiling. So at night the flat would always heat up even though it was cold in the evening as long as the window was open. Because of the noise it wasn’t possible to sleep with the window open, so we ended up tuning on the AC every few hours at night to turn down the heat.
In the bathroom there was only a small and low table to put your stuff. Is was directly under the towels and the soap was on this table too. So every time you would wash your hands, everything got wet.
The water in the shower didn’t heat up well, even though we pressed the button in the fuse box before, as we were told to do.
There was wallpaper coming down in the bathroom.
There was only one bedside table on one side and no possibility for the other person to put anything next to the bed.
There was no bedside light, so you always have to switch in the big bright light directly above the bed.
- Franz Jürgen (8/5): Unser zweiter Aufenthalt und gerne wieder. - Sehr zentral gelegen, mit nur wenigen Gehminuten zur Innenstadt. Die zwei schönen Balkone bieten einen tollen Blick über die Dächer von Athen und auf den Lykabettus. Mangels eines Duschvorhangs kann man kaum duschen, ohne das Bad unter Wasser zu setzen.
Die Küche ist nur sparsam ausgestattet, es fehlen z.B. eine Salatschüssel, Pfannenwender etc.
- Armin (6/5): - I stayed 2 nights on Friday and Saturday. opposite is a club, which is very noisy until 3 am. it's not rooftop, but rooftop minus 2.
- Sapir (10/5): - מקום מקסים, יש בדירה שתי מרפסות גדולות מאוד. המטבח מעולה ומגיע עם כלים. בכל הדירה שם גם שמן מלח פלפל וחומץ ככה שאתם ממש מסודרים. המיטה נוחה אבל רכה מאוד ככה שמי שפחות אוהב רך שישים לב.
בכל הדירה הסכים להקדים לנו את הצ׳ק וזה עזר לנו מאוד!. בתור ישראלים יש לשים לב שהאזור מאוד מאוד אנטי ישראלים. הכל מלא בכרזות אנטי צהל ואני מדינת ישראל, דבר שיוצר תחושה מאוד לא נעימה בערב. בנוסף זה קצת רחוק מה ממרכז העיר

- Isabelle (8/5): Une bonne adresse si on ne fait qu’y prendre le petit déjeuner et y dormir. - La terrasse est extrême agréable. Les accessoires et équipements sont réduits au minimum

- Sören (10/5): - Top-notch accommodation in the heart of Athens. Many things are within walking distance. Everything you need is in the apartment. We particularly appreciate the owner's accessibility and responsiveness. He is extremely helpful and communicates very quickly. Absolutely recommended for anyone who isn't into fancy stuff.
- Irina (6/5): perfectly fine for a short stay as a couple or single - great location, lively neighborhood, beautiful terrace(s), quite new bathroom, easy check in and communication just quite uncomfortable for a longer stay, ac doesn't run longer than a few hours, bathroom smells unfortunately, kitchen is not equipped well
- Alexandros (3/5): Poor - The location was great as I love the neighborhood, and the big balcony was a nice touch. The bed was also okay and comfortable enough. I am very familiar with Exarchia, as I always stay in this neighborhood and know the pricing of the area. I wasn’t expecting luxury, but there were significant issues that justify the low rating.
First, the room itself was not ergonomic at all. I like to work on my laptop, but there was no proper space for this. The room was oddly shaped, more like a narrow "P" than a proper square, with no desk or usable table—barely even space to eat. For the price charged, the setup was worse than a typical student room, which costs a fraction of this.
Second, while the room was clean, there was a persistent smell of humidity, likely coming from the bathroom drain.
Additionally, the building entrance was hard to find, and there were houseless people near the front door. While I understand this isn’t something the owner can fully control, the host could have advised me to approach from Exarchia Square instead of Omonia Square for safety and convenience.
Finally, the worst part: there was no electricity and no elevator. I wasn’t informed of this until two days before my stay. Carrying a 10kg carry-on and a 23kg suitcase up six flights of stairs in the dark was unacceptable. For a rooftop apartment on the 6th floor, these issues must be addressed before renting it out.
Overall, this room is better suited for long-term student housing—not for short-term rentals on platforms like Booking.com. Fix these issues before listing it again.
- Carruthers-taylor (8/5): Central location, great rooftop and compact apartment - Great location and comfortable accommodation. It's about a 30 min walk to the Acropolis with nice bars and food options closeby. It was amazing to come back to the apartment at the end of the day and sit on the very comfortable sofas on the decking. The apartment was compact but not tiny for 2 people and the kitchenette was well supplied which was very welcome. The glass doors do an amazing job of stopping the noise from the street. I would recommend this accommodation to those looking for a central location for a couple nights stay while seeing Athens. Just as the other reviews and the description say, this is not luxury accommodation, but is comfortable. I would say it's perfect for a quick visit (less than 4 days), but not for longer stays. Also, don't expect the host to reply to messages! You just get automatic messages, but if you ask a question, even after 3 days they didn't reply.
- Lari (9/5): Great starting point to discover Athens - The Balcony, 2 of them, was so lovely. It is relaxing and an excellent place to hang out for breakfast, with sunrise and sunset for drinks. Easy access and clean. It is perfect for a couple. Around the corner you have great restaurants and bars. Good location for discovering the real Athens. We had no issues at all but it would've been good with a pair of keys instead of just one.
- Jenna (10/5): Great location great stay - All perfect and as expected! Maybe could leave some milk for the coffee or some biscuits for the morning

- Patricija (10/5): Could not imagine better experience! - The host was really helpful and made my stay very pleasant and enjoyable. Highly recommend this accommodation!❤️
- Anna (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nigel (9/5): The 5th floor rooftop terrace added another dimension to our stay - The apartment was spotlessly clean. Great bathroom. There were personal touches with little notes. Wonderful terrace that you eat on and could sleep on. Right in centre of Exarchia. Really quiet on 5th floor. We had an amazing stay and booked an extra night in their 2nd apartment next door which is just as good.

- Torsten (8/5): Very good - It's an simple accommodation but very centrally located. The owner is very friendly and helpful. The outside veranda is beautiful! Good price value relationship. It's simple but sufficient. In the night the neighborhood looks a little bit unsecure, but there is also a lot of police. We got stuck once in the elevator and had to call the fire station.
- Sofija (10/5): nice location, clean and beautiful apartment - perfect location, very nice apartment for one person or couples, the host are helpful and flexible we couldn’t turn on the hot water
- Elis (8/5): Very good -
- Elif (10/5): Exceptional -
- Antonnia (7/5): Good - Good price and quick walk into centre As a solo female traveller I did jot feel safe. Homeless people living right outside main door and syringes on the street.
No TV and gad to continuously turn mains on and off to get the heating on. Even with heating on the degrees of apartment stayed the same - didn't seem to work.
- Miniconi (10/5): I wish to come back - exceptional terrasse, you feel like a bird i liked everything
- Csaba (9/5): You can stay here without any problem - Nice, clean. Not so bad neighbourhood. I couldn't set the heater.
- Leon (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect. loved my stay!
- Sarah (8/5): Very good -
- Viviane (7/5): The appointment is very small but so stay for a weekend and visiting the city its perfect. - Its very close to everything and around are a lot of nice bars, restaurants and bakery’s. The balconies are nice, but we never used them. There were so many nice places outside to chill. Its nosy during the night. But this is what you get if you stay in the middle of a city.
- Irena (8/5): Very good - Biutifull location.Very good and clean apartament.Our living time there included friday and saturday.Near is night club or other and it was very noisy befor 3-4 am. Biutifull apartament.
- Lauren (8/5): Very good - Great balcony. A nice apartment and was perfect for our stay as we didn't spend so much time in the room as there is so much to see in Athens. Nice and clean and easy checkin. The area isn't great but all the places you would want to go are in walking distance. There are some cool bars by the apartment and some great vegan food which was a surprise. If you are looking for somewhere to base yourself for exploring Athens we thought this place was great! Don't be put off by the location-we had no issues.
- U_ (9/5): Lovely flat in interesting part of Athens - wasThe location is great, the terrace is lovely. the flat is definitely a small studio but the terrace makes it bigger (although it was a bit hot to use it that much when we were there!). very stylishly done. we liked it a lot ! the area is super interesting with a fascinating ongoing history of migration and politics. lots of local bars. The air conditioning requires you push a button every couple of hours so as we were there in 34 degrees we needed to run it in the night !! we found this massively disrupted our sleep - wake up boiling - turn on aircon - repeat….
It would not be such an issue in cooler months but for us it ruined the stay by the end.
