• Kathryn (10/5): Great apartment - The apartment was comfy, clean and very close to the best views of the Acropolis
• Łukasz (9/5): -

• Panos (10/5): - Είναι ένα διαμέρισμα ,διατηρημένο σε ικανοποιητικό βαθμό,σε κεντρικό σημείο κοντά σε αρχαιολογικούς χώρους με πρόσβαση σε ΜΜΕ. Οι διαχειριστές άψογοι,απαντούν γρήγορα στα μηνύματα με πρόθεση να εξυπηρετούν και να επιλύουν όλα τα θέματα. Οι οδηγίες για το check in -check out είναι σαφείς και περιεκτικές.
• KYRIAKOS (10/5): -
• Helen (9/5): Wonderful location to explore the best of Athens - Great location close to the acropolis and a wonderful bakery right underneath, Aris and George were helpful with arranging a taxi from the airport for us, would love to stay again. There was nothing we didn't like!
• Hamdi (10/5): FEVKALEDE - Daire konum olarak mükemmel bir noktada yer alıyor.Tüm turistik, yeme içme mekanlarına çok yakın. Bulunduğu cadde oldukça sakin ve huzurlu. Dairenin içi kullanışlı; mutfak biraz küçük olsa da ihtiyaçları karşılamak için yeterli. Ev genel olarak çok temizdi, yatak çarşafları ve yorganlar oldukça temiz ve rahattı. uzun çok şirin bir balkonu mevcut. Ev sahipleri çok ilgili ve yardımcı insanlar. Konaklamadan bir gün önce tüm detayları sizinle paylaşıyorlar ve WhatsApp üzerinden sorularınıza hızlıca cevap veriyorlar. Yabancı bir ülkede olmanıza rağmen samimiyetleri sayesinde kendinizi güvende hissediyorsunuz. Konum açısından da çok avantajlı: Thissio metro durağına yaklaşık 5 dakika, Monastiraki metro durağına ise yaklaşık 15 dakika yürüme mesafesinde. Apartmanın altında çok çeşitli ürünlerin bulunduğu bir fırın ve hemen karşısında her gün 08.00–23.00 saatleri arasında açık bir market bulunuyor. Biz 4 yetişkin ve 2 çocuk (8 yaş) olarak çok rahat bir konaklama geçirdik. Fiyat–performans açısından kesinlikle çok iyi bir daire. Isıtma sistemi sabah ve akşam saatlerinde çalıştığı için zaman zaman yetersiz kalabiliyor. Ancak evin salonunda ve iki odasında bulunan toplam üç klima sayesinde bu durum kolaylıkla telafi edilebiliyor. Isıtma saatlerinin muhtemelen apartman kuralları doğrultusunda belirlenmiş olduğunu düşünüyorum.
• Detsis (9/5): - L'emplacement est top, l'hôte disponible avec de bons conseils
• Ion (9/5): -
• Khoury (10/5): -
• Suren (10/5): - Exceptional location of the apartment. Close to downtown. Metro just 2 minutes away. Meanwhile, it is a quite place. Bakery in the same building for the quick breakfast. Very responsive and accommodating hosts. No negative experience.

• Hadas (10/5): -
• Diana (8/5): Good Location - I really liked this property for its excellent location. It was conveniently situated, making it easy to get around. Plenty of mirrors! One downside was that the apartment got quite cold during the day. The heating is connected to the building’s central system and only came on in the morning and evening, which meant it was cold during the day.
• Raquel (10/5): - El apartamento estaba limpio y era muy cómodo, fiel a las fotos. La ubicación es perfecta, está al lado de la acrópolis y llegas caminando a prácticamente todo. Hay metro muy cerca. Si volviera a Atenas, repetiría sin dudarlo.
• Serhad (10/5): - Konumu harikaydı. Acropolis'in yanı hemen.havaalanından metro ile ulaşım sağlanabilir. Yatak yorgan konforluydu. Mutfakta çoğu ihtiyaç malzrmesi mevcuttu. 4 yetişkin 1 çocuk rahatlıkla kalabilir.
• Ksanthipi (10/5): Very cozy and comfortable home and extra points for the location! Everything was clean, well-organized, and made our sta - Location , well organized home, cleanliness
• João Tadeu (9/5): Voagem maravilhosa - A localização era excelente. O atendimento dos funcionários foi excelente Nil
• Yannick (10/5): - Promxity and location were in an exceptional and safe neighborhood near attractions and away from all the hustle, perfect for what it was great host Aris and George very helpful and accommodating Nothing it was great value for money
• raquel (10/5): - El depto. muy bien habilitado tienes de todo, muy bien eso, funcionas como en casa. Metro cerca y todo lo que tienes que ver en Atenas. Muy bien ubicado. Las indicaciones de recogida de la llave, no me llego una foto de donde estaban ubicadas, eso me habría ayudado. Supuestamente me habían sido enviadas..
• Cherry (10/5): -
• Suzanne (9/5): I loved it. It felt like home for a few weeks. - Perfect location, comfortable size, well equipped apartment. Aris was particularly responsive to queries and an emergency repair to balcony door locks. As an elderly person with sight impairment, I had a bit of trouble with the steps to the lift (four external, twelve internal). There is, however, a stair handrail for most of the way.
• Kate (9/5): Lovely family apartment - The apartment was lovely. Great air con and very quiet. It was a very comfy stay for our family of 5 to explore Athens. I loved being walking distance from the tourist attractions whilst also being a little out of the mayhem. Easy to reach supermarkets and a bakery downstairs with delicious food, coffee and ice cream. Amazing to have a washing machine in the apartment to use too. The bathroom is small. Probably normal size for Athens though.
• Moore (8/5): - Location is great, some shops nearby and a lot of restaurants Lovely balcony and tv with entertainment Really helpful staff who organised a taxi for us on the way back and allowed early check in, super responsive The blankets were a bit cold
• Nuttgens (8/5): Central visit to Athens - Location including the bakery downstairs. Little touches like herbs and oil, as well as jam and honey. Access to the Metro was great. There is some occasional traffic noise, but this is to be expected in such a central location.
• Melanie (8/5): Diese Lage war unglaublich! :) - Check-In sehr leicht, Wohnung in einer absolut tollen Lage - man ist schnell an jeglichen Orten, saubere Wohnung, Schlafsofa ist in Ordnung, Betten gut, Kaffee gibt es auch vor Ort, generell Wohnung in einem guten Zustand, Kontakt zu Besitzern sehr einfach und schnell möglich Leider hört man sehr viel von dem, was draußen passiert, auch nachts wenn z.B. Müllabführ herumfährt, ein Badezimmer für 6 Personen war manchmal tricky
• Christoph (10/5): Wir waren nur kurz da, haben uns aber sehr wohl gefühlt - Sehr sauber und sehr zentral, in einem wunderschönen Viertel
• Eyal (9/5): - Great new apartment in a perfect location, walking distance from the Acropolis, Plaka, and the old city, 3 min. walk from the metro. Big and spacious rooms, place is renovated, very nice and responsive hosts. We loved it an will return in our next time in Athens.
• Sandra (9/5): ¡Apartamento centrico y cómodo! - El apartamento tiene una ubicación inmejorable, a pocos minutos a pie de la Acrópolis. Es amplio, cómodo y muy limpio, lo que hizo nuestra estancia muy agradable. El proceso de check-in fue sencillo y los anfitriones estuvieron siempre atentos y dispuestos a ayudar en todo momento. Hay una panadería al lado del edificio, que te salva el desayuno y el barrio en general es muy bonito y tranquilo, a pesar de ser tan centrico. Me gusto todo pero si se podría mejorar algo, diría que la cocina y el baño presentan un estilo algo antiguo, lo cual podría modernizarse para mayor confort. Tuvimos un inconveniente con la ducha durante la estancia, pero el propietario mostró en todo momento gran disposición para resolverlo rápidamente, lo cual agradecemos mucho.
• GK (8/5): - Wonderful stay in a fantastic location. The apartment was quaint and charming, perfect for a few days exploring the city. We really appreciated the warm hospitality. As a family of 5 we wanted space however, the apartment felt smaller than the photos suggested, and accessing it required using stairs, which was a bit challenging and unsafe at times for our family of five , especially with luggage.

• Zahi (10/5): - הדירה מרווחת מאוד ,ומאובזרת לכל מה שהיינו צריכים. מטבח מאובזר, מרפסת שמש מקסימה לקפה של הבוקר. המיקום היה נהדר מבחינתנו , מרחק הליכה קצרה למטרו. בעלי הדירה מקסימים, היו זמינים לנו לכל שאלה, נתנו המלצות לאוכל באיזור. ממליצים בחום! הדבר היחיד היה שבבוקר לעיתים עבר ברחוב מוכר צמחים עם מגאפון.. חצי דקה של רעש . לא נעים, לא נורא.

Pictures are exactly what are you going to see if you stay here. Once again thank you. Until next time 🧡 Nothing

Within walking distances to all the sights, metro, supermarkets and numerous coffee shops and restaurants, and there is a great bakery underneath. Good value for money too. Thank you to our hosts.

Access to lovely coffee shops and local spots. A nice walk to Monastriki square and easy access to metro station. A microwave would have been bonus.

• Nicole (10/5): Exceptional - Such a warm and friendly welcome from the family. Arranged a taxi for our early flight and brought us extra bedding. It was a spacious apartment, which we were needing after over 2 weeks together on vacation. Thank you!
• Catherine (10/5): Nice apartment in a great location. - The apartment had everything we needed. The location was excellent. Very good restaurants nearby, an easy walk to Hadrian’s Library, the Agora, and the Stoa. The balcony was a nice asset but street noise was fairly constant so we mainly didn’t use it. The walls are thin so we heard a lot from other apartments.
• Elizabeth (9/5): Exceptional stay! - The apartment was very clean and close to many amenities. A short walk brought us to restaurants, shops, and the Acropolis. The hosts were very gracious.
• Di (10/5): A perfect way to start a Greek holiday - The location was terrific. So close to restaurants, bakery, supermarket and train station. The Parthenon was an easy walk away. Two nice size comfy bedrooms and all facilities you could want. The stairs are a bit challenging with a heavy suitcase but there is a lift of an older style if you want it.
• Deborah (7/5): Great neighbourhood, good value, decor ok & v clean but nothing special - In a great location in a lovely neighbourhood full of good restaurants & bars & walking distance to Acropolis. It didn’t really work for a single night stay because the checkout time is 11 am & even though I requested an extra hour when I booked a long time before staying they refused because the cleaning company comes at that time.
• Maria (10/5): Exceptional - Great location, walking distance to plaka & 10 minutes walk to landmarks. Great host, always available to answer all questions. Bakery under the building.

• Chi (10/5): Exceptional -
• Peter (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lorna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sofia (8/5): Thank you - Location is brilliant and the flat is very well fitted. We would have appreciated having extra pillows (1 per person not enough for us) and extra covers, it was a bit chilly during the night!
• Dorin (10/5): Exceptional - Very comfortable apartment, great host!
• Imbert (9/5): Superb - Very nice flat, ideally situated to visit the Acropolis and agora. Quite comfortable. Clean and modern. Very good contact with owners though we didn't meet. Very good restaurants nearby with view on the Acropolis and very close metro station to Pireus and other parts of the city. To be recommended. No micro wave. Some noise from the street but that's not the owner's fault! It's a big city.
• Virginia (9/5): convenient one night stay - Hosts allowed us to check in a little early, we were in a pinch. Great location right next to agora/acropolis and shopping area. Nicely furnished place with a balcony. hot water instructions were not clear, we were supposed to turn on something but did not understand what. No extra blankets (it was a cold night).
• Roxanne (10/5): We felt very comfortable and at home in this neighborhood location with night life a metro close by. - The apartment is well stocked with the essential daily needs: good working plumbing, a kitchen with all the necessary appliances and comfortable beds. Our hosts took great care of us and made us feel like visiting family. We would happily stay here again. Just one block away there is a lovely promenade with restaurants and cafes, overlooked by the Acropolis. Shopping is just minutes away, as well as the Metro station. Don't overlook the great bakery next door!
• Ilmars (9/5): Superb -
• Bethany (8/5): Very good -
• Peter (10/5): Perfect vacation - Superb location, clean spacious flat, amazing communication.
• Hamady (9/5): Superb -
• Victoria (10/5): Great experience in Athens - The apartment was so well located for a short trip to tourist sites. We could walk everywhere easily and this made our stay effortless and restful. The apartment was clean and comfortable, and there were very useful extras such as towels and condiments in the kitchen.
• Amrat (10/5): Excellent location to explore Athens - The property is in an excellent location, it’s spacious and very clean & comfortable . Restaurants and sight seeing are all walking distance. The WiFi was good. Very easy to check in & out.
• Leanne (7/5): Good -
• Chase (10/5): Very nice and close to the major tourist attractions. - Really close to the Acropolis and the market. The place is very nice. The street is a bit busy and you could hear cars and motorcycles all night. Light sleepers might find this difficult.

• Shanta (10/5): Perfect place for crazy, city, touristy time in Athens! - Location, great amenities - the host really thought of everything we could possibly need! A great refuge after a long day sightseeing. Can’t think of anything!

• Koullapis (10/5): Exceptional - Great location, very clean and quiet Nothing
• Erene (10/5): Exceptional -
• Minna (8/5): Perfect location to explore Athens - The location of the apartment is perfect, only two minutes away from restaurants and shops, and Acropolis is also a short walk away. The street is quite quiet for such a central location. The apartment is ideal for up to 4 people: there is a sofa bed in the living room but it's also where the eating area is so it's not ideal for sleeping . The air conditioning works well in all rooms and the apartment was nice and clean. We would happily stay here again. The kitchen is small so not suitable for cooking, although the coffee machine is superb, and many lovely places to eat are just a couple of minutes' walk away.
• Traci (10/5): Exceptional -
• Aun (8/5): Would gladly stay again at this location. It felt like a home away from home. - Close to train station. Easily accessible. Newly re-furbished. Host was very friendly. Bakery downstairs (mainly cakes and desserts). Lots of eating options nearby. We were 2 couples and utilised the 2 bedrooms, and living space. Kitchen was fully stocked with amenities (utensils/plates/cooking appliances) including some juice to welcome us. Would have liked a toaster. Internet was terrible, but can't fault the host - he was having issues with the internet provider which had failed to attend site to fix the connection.
