Guest Reviews

• MM Propertylink Ltd (8/5): - Great Location, Big apartment but only if you like semi basement type. I would avoid semibasement type property..
• ANASTASIA (10/5): Φιλόξενο καθαρό με αισθητική διαμέρισμα - Όμορφο σε υπέροχη θέση γεμάτη ενέργεια και φιλοξενία ελληνική!! Με όλες τις παροχές
• Eveline (9/5): Mooi verblijf met een super locatie tegenover de Acropolis. -
• Hanna (10/5): I was enjoying my staying, the apartments has everything that I need during my staying, the location is just in the hear - I like the location of the property, how is is clean and have everything I need
• Christos (10/5): - Ένα πολύ όμορφο διαμέρισμα στο ωραιότερο σημείο της Αθήνας, στον πιο διάσημο πεζόδρομο της Ευρώπης, κάτω από τη σκιά της Ακρόπολης.Λιγη προσοχή στις λεπτομέρειες της καθαριότητας. Ο διαχειριστής εξαιρετικός, επεξηγηματικός και μου παρείχε όλες τις πληροφορίες που χρειαζόμουν. Βρέθηκε μια κατσαρίδα στο μπάνιο αλλά μάλλον είναι κάπως λογικό επειδή το διαμέρισμα είναι ημιυπόγειο. Το μπάνιο επίσης έχει μια μυρωδιά κλεισούρας και υγρασίας, πιθανόν για τον ίδιο λόγο.
• Giorgi (10/5): -
• FATMA AYLİN (8/5): -
• Leonardo (8/5): Muy bien - La ubicacion Había algo de olor a humedad y no habían sabanas para el sofa
• Molly (8/5): Great value and prompt, friendly customer service. - Great location and easy to access the metro. Main lights in kitchen and living room didn't work so it seemed extra dark. The entry hall was light was also way too dim so you could only see in the closets if you opened the bathroom door. Also I would have preferred a fitted sheet on the bottom and a larger top sheet. It was hard for 2 of us to sleep because the sheet didn't cover us and the bottom sheet didn't stay tucked in place.
• maciej (8/5): - Super lokalizacja i nawet udało się znaleźć miejsce parkingowe 40 m od apartamentu pod Ambasada Hiszpanska Apartament był w piwnicy i tego nie było w opisie a powinno!!! Żoną chciała.w nocy szukać innego noclegu bo ma klaustrofobie
• Margaret (10/5): Perfect location for visiting Athens, loved everything about the apartment! - Loved the location, across the street from the acropolis & 1 block from the museum. AND it had a laundry machine. Loved it all.
• Frances (10/5): We had a great stay very homely and comfortable and got to enjoy a lovely part of Athens - Apartment was in the perfect position and host was easily contactable if needed. Although in basement still had windows and was very roomy with aircon. Close to all shopping streets and restaurants galore! N/A
• Debi (9/5): Magical and unique experience! Location perfect, shops nearby and amenities all made it a great and memorable stay! - Location!! There is something so special to be staying directly underneath the acropolis. The perfect location to do all the main sights and the evenings it’s magical walking around the streets lined with restaurants and shops. It was clean, all amenities, lovely hot shower, comfortable bed. Easy check in and check out with lock box. A little dark, but that’s due to it being basement, which we knew when we booked. Not much storage, the only cupboard seemed to be full of stuff, including a printer! If that was emptied would have been helpful. Ok for us for two nights though. Lights take a bit of working out too!
• tob (9/5): Für einen 2 Tage Stopp in Athen eine wunderbare Unterkunft. - Die Lage der Wohnung ist einmalig. Direkt gegenüber der Akropolis an einer Fußgängerzone - der Blick ist Großartig. Es ist mit der Metro leicht zu erreichen, was aber auch bedeutet das immer Menschen an der Wohnung vorbeilaufen. Viele Sehenswürdigkeiten und das Gebiet “Plaka" sind gleich um die Ecke. Da es aber im "semi basement“ lag, hat man davon wenig mitbekommen. Leider dadurch auch kein richtiges Fenster zum rausschauen und öffnen. Das Apartment ist modern und geschmackvoll eingerichtet und bietet alle Möglichkeiten der Technik. Trotz der geschmackvollen Einrichtung haben manche Dinge durch die Benutzung etwas an Funktion verloren - Was leicht zu beheben wären. Z.B. Die Lampe im Bad hat einen Wackelkontakt, der Lampenschirm der Stehlampe hing herunter, das Wasser in der Dusche floss kaum ab da verstopft. Mit etwas Liebe im Detail des Anfangs ist das leicht zu verbessern. Da aus Sicherheitsgründen die Fenster Nachts nicht offen bleiben konnen und es draußen im Sommer heiß ist, musste die ganze Nacht die Klimaanlage laufen. Was nicht immer ideal ist für empfindliche Personen.
• Zaidy (10/5): -
• Athanase (10/5): Location is unbelievable - Location is absolutely perfect and in the best part of Athens, right near the museum and the Acropolis Place is very large practical clean and has everything you need Walking distance, absolutely to everywhere in the hottest spot
• Matias (10/5): De ensueño! En el corazón de la Acrópolis! - Todo, la ubicación es única y de ensueño! El basement es un sueño! Tiene todo! Vayan sin dudarlo!
• Inna (10/5): Super location and good clean apartment - Very comfortable, clean and well organised apartment. Excellent location near the Acropolis and Acropoli metro station. Clear guest’s platform where you can find all instructions and information about the check-in, how to find the apartment etc.
• Gwyn (8/5): - The proximity to everything is second to none from this apartment! Stepping out the door each day to the view of the Acropolis and Parthenon was worth its weight in gold. Cafes and restaurants are just around the corner, as is the metro system. The apartment itself is adequate for a couple exploring Athens as it has all necessary equipment for a comfortable stay.
• Matias (10/5): Excelente apartamento en Atenas - La ubicación es perfecta!! Para mi en uno de los barrios más lindos de Atenas. El apartamento tenía todo y era muy cómodo. Por ahí nos resultó un poco incomodo salir de la cama ya que estaba muy baja y somos gente grande. Pero nada empaña lo espectacular del apartamento.
• Sezen Çağla (9/5): -
• Salih (8/5): A Very caring management team. - The location is perfect.
• Bryce (10/5): Exceptional -
• Viacheslav (10/5): In its category the apartment is exceptional. - The location could not be better, we're literally in Acropolis, step out the door and you see the great Parthenon every single time you come in/out the apartment - it is so exciting. Also this location saved us a lot of energy since the Museum and Acropolis itself is just a few meters away. So we had more time to walk around and enjoy the spirit of ancient Athens. The semi-basement is super clean and everything was sanitized. In its category the apartment is exceptional.
• טל (8/5): Very good - Great host))) Excellent location meets expectations for those who don't have a problem with a basement
• Lisihan (10/5): Exceptional - Like
• Kanika (8/5): Good - The apartment was cozy, felt like home. All the necessary equipment’s were there. The location was excellent The only problem we faced on the last day and we didn’t face any such type of problem anywhere in the world as we have travelled to a lot of countries was that they didn’t provide to keep luggage. It’s not possible that anyone could catch a flight right at the time of check out and in international travel we have bulk luggage’s which couldn’t be carried to roam around. We only asked the owner to keep our two strollers for 3 hours but he simply refused to keep the same and it was really disheartening and the whole fun of staying at that place went away at the same moment
• Aleks (8/5): Very good -
• Soolim (10/5): Simply, clean, spacious, friendly host and price, had a problem with flight, the host let us extend a couple more days w - The property was very clean, good amount of space, despite being the best location in Athens, the price was friendly👍🏼 Nothing really
• Ayşe (8/5): Very good -
• Stavia (5/5): Very poor maintenance checks (lights, sinks, tv) and we will not use again - Clean. Good heating and internet. Good location 1.Description did not specify it is a basement flat. 2. Central light does not turn out (only dims) so we had to sleep with light on each night 3. TV has no usable Netflix or other smart options 4. Broken bathroom sink which leaks and soaks the area - including our slippers (and the loo rolls)
• Αντηι (10/5): Exceptional -
• Adrian (9/5): It was a perfect location to stay while seeing the area around the Acropolis. - The location was perfect. Handy to the subway and lots of restaurants. I was a little concerned about the window coverings, but I left a light on and went outside and the light was not visible outside.
• Carrie (8/5): So glad we chose this place we found it perfectly located for our visit. - The location was fantastic for our visit. It was convenient, comfortable & our host was helpful. There was some mold in the shower & there was a bit of a stinky smell in the bathroom.
• Bonnie (10/5): Perfect location and very comfortable. - The location is prefect! The apartment is perfectly appointed and well equipped. Everything was clean and tidy. We arrived early and were able to store our luggage while the cleaning staff came. The host is so friendly and helpful. This is our second stay at this location and we hope to come back in the future.
• Abeyasekera (8/5): Very good -
• Jiota (10/5): Exceptional -
• Geoff (8/5): Very good -
• Poppy (8/5): Loved our stay at this apartment in particular because of the location. Would definitely stay here again ! - Location, Location Location!!!!!! Well kept apartment There was a smell in the apartment and it was dark as it was located in the basement. However as we really weren’t staying in during the day it did not impact us.
• Anita (10/5): Best location and perfect comfort! - The apartment was comfortable, well equipped and perfectly situated. Close to the Acropolis, restaurants, shopping and the Acropolis museum.
• Marysol (6/5): This apartment has a lot of potential it is situated in a great location. It just needs more home amendities. Also would - Location Secureness and working the lights was super challenging.
• Marcelo (7/5): Good -
• Edina (9/5): Superb - Location, setup, service, organised, responsive. Would come back. would advise to my friends. It was no problem the early checkin, very well. Very well organised welcome, the location tops everything. Nice, cute. Thank you! The beautifully designed bed is for young or fit people, otherwise it is difficult to get in and out of it. Overall was clean, but the cleaners might have been under pressure, because they have left few things uncleaned in the bathroom (basin, basin bench, wall under the mirror, bathroom door). The sofa and desk are a bit outdated, but I am not complaining for that.
• Dimitrios (8/5): Very good -
• Miss (8/5): Very good - Location was close to everywhere. Room had everything that we needed. The bathroom wasn’t clean enough. Because of this property is a basement apartment unfortunately we saw a big cockroach :( But overall it’s okay
• Tara (10/5): Great spot with Plaka and central Athens nearby. - I loved how close the property was to everything. It was fantastic location. There were always musicians playing music outside the Acropolis There were fantastic restaurants nearby the host restaurant recommend. The room was spacious and had everything we needed. I would’ve liked if the mattress was on a frame. Other than that, the Airbnb was very comfortable. I would recommend this place to others.
• Mindaugas (10/5): Exceptional -
• Cox (6/5): Pleasant - Location Compared to other places we stayed on this trip, the cleanliness was not what we were expecting (hair on floors and in shower). The light switches were not intuitive and it felt dark.
• Ernest (9/5): Superb -
• Sheila (8/5): Very good - The location is amazing .
• Jasminka (5/5): Passable - The location The mattress and lack of day light
• Julie (10/5): I loved the spaciousness of the apartment. Everything we needed was there and easy to use - The proximity to the sights and metro line Sorry to say but the very late night gatherings outside of the apartment were noisy especially after midnight
• Sabrina (10/5): Exceptional - Great location, very clean
• Slobodan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Μηνας (10/5): Best location for Acropolis - Acropolis View!!!!!
• Emilia (6/5): I would recommend the place only because of the location, the rest of the inconveniences were too big to recommend this - The location, it was just in front of the entrance to the acropolis. The noice from the outside is really loud, you could hear everything… people chatting, kids screaming, musicians playing, literally everything. The windows are not properly sealed. The internet worked only for the couple of hours, and to fix it it took another couple of hours. In the end of the trip we found the biggest cockroach I’ve ever seen. The humidity in the bathroom is bad that’s why it’s smells like mold.
• Gunnar (9/5): Perfect stay - Room, Style
• Khan (7/5): Good - The city and the people were good, especially the people were very helpful. I was charged for TWO ADULTS,even when I was all alone., please make arrangements for a refund.sp that I am charged rightly.
• Victoria (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jason (8/5): Very good - Best possible location Couldn't work out how to turn on most of the lights
• Abigail (10/5): Incredible location. Enjoy every second - Incredible location
• Ernest (10/5): Very close to Parthenon - I like everything Nothing
• Prasanna (9/5): Superb - Location location
• Garret (9/5): Excellent Location - Excellent location and excellent communication with the host. There was an odor coming from the bathroom and the light was out in the hall that accessed basement apartment.
• Helen (9/5): A great location just below the Acropolis, close to restaurants and Plaka. Apartment comfortable for our short stay !!! - The position was a great location for us, arrived by Metro, was a short walk to apartment. Nasos offered a lot of help but we didn’t need it. Nothing really, that we couldn’t live with. Lighting was a bit dull. Had trouble opening the washing machine but worked it out.
• Stavros (10/5): Exceptional - The functionality of the apartment, the easy access and the location - central to everything and of course the fabulous view of the Acropolis - not from within the apartment itself - but getting in and out from the building, including the walking around that area!!! I shall stay at this apartment again and again!!!
• David (9/5): fabulous! - loved the location. simply couldn’t get better. the apartment has been beautifully and tastefully renovated, literally at the foot of the acropolis. Acropolis metro station 3 mins walk around the corner, the acropolis gate a similar distance, the fabulous acropolis museum just 2 mins away. turn left out the front door and walk to the hill of muses, with breathtaking views across Athens. lights were a bit of a puzzle at first.
• André (4/5): Cockroaches fiesta - The hotel's location is excellent pretty close to the Acropolis/Parthenon, its modern and new facilities are impressive and the hotel had a fair price, considering its location and modern amenities. Despite being a new and modern hotel, we were disappointed to find seven cockroaches during our two-day stay. Although the hotel has a great location and contemporary amenities, the presence of numerous cockroaches greatly detracted from our overall experience We also noticed that the rooms was quite dark and lacked sufficient lighting.
• Troy (10/5): Great location withEasy Access to Everything - Great location.. Close to everything in Center City It was clean and had everything we needed
• Penny (9/5): Great stay had a wonderful time - Location was excellent Pillows were very uncomfortable and better quality Only 1 tea mug (a British thing)
• Pieter (8/5): comfortable appartment in amazing location - location
• David (9/5): Superb - This apartment is in a fantastic location - you're right under the Acropolis with an amazing view when you step right outside - and Nasos is a great host! The apartment is clean and spacious. The only downside here is that there was only 1 bed - which was likely some confusion between the booking listing saying it had a sofa bed and listing that as a real bed and the fact that it is just a sofa. But for 2 people, this is the ideal apartment.
• Παναγης (7/5): superb if the location is what it matters - superb location it’s a semi basement apartment with some noise from outside when windows are open
• Vicki (8/5): Very good - It was roomy and confortable and the bathroom was a good size It was in the basement and quite dark.
• Julianna (10/5): Exceptional - had difficulty starting the washing machine, great communication with the host and the problem was solved quickly!
• Jared (7/5): Good - The apartment was clean and location was great. Not a lot of natural light and slightly dark. Comms with the host could have been better.
