Guest Reviews
- Lolli (9/5): Bellissimo da ripetere - Si trova in una posizione fantastica , la consiglio per chi come noi ama vivere il centro non solo di giorno x le meraviglie da vedere ma anche per vivere un po’ la notte La porta di entrata cigola
- Marie-josée (1/5): Déception - Les photos ne rendent pas l’impression d’étouffer. Plafond bas et fenêtres sales fermées avec des barreaux scellés. Construction au-dessus. Donc bruyant. Et curieusement, l’étage du dessus est vide, sans fenêtre. Aucune consignes reçues pour l’arrivée. Après plusieurs appels, on a fini par avoir une réponse et des consignes pas claires. Ce n’est pas vraiment au premier, c’est entre le RC et le 1er. Difficulté à ouvrir la serrure de l’édifice. Non recommandé.
- Taiwo (10/5): - Location, facilities, breakfast@la pizzeria Although my room was changed at the last moment because of some technical issues they say, the alternative was perfect.
- Anastasia (10/5): - Супер удобное местоположение, рядом много ресторанов и кафе, недалеко от метро
- Alexandra (10/5): -
- Thomas (1/5): Zumutung durch Baulärm - Die Unterkunft ist sehr gut gelegen und gut eingerichtet. Das Frühstück gibt es in einer kleinen Pizzeria La Pizzetta. Anna und Janis sind sehr sympathische Menschen, die uns bei unserem Ärger wegen des Baulärms etc. sehr geholfen haben. Der Vermieter hat die Wohnung vermietet, obwohl seit Wochen die darüber gelegene Wohnung kernsaniert wird. Die Folge: Wir haben von 7 bis 20 Uhr ohrenbetäubenden Lärm erdulden müssen. Presslufthammer, Bohrer etc. An Ausschlafen oder Erholungsphase in der Wohnung zwischen Besichtigungen war Nichtzulassung denken. Nach drei Tagen kam es zu einem massiven Wasserschaden durch die Bauarbeiten in der oberen Wohnung. Da das Wasser durch die Decke in die Wände und das Parkett lief, war die Wohnung nicht mehr benutzbar. Immerhin hat uns der Vermieter ein sehr schönes Appartment für die restlichen Tage vermittelt. Der Vorwurfist, dass er die Wohnung vermietet hat, obwohl die Bauarbeiten schon seit Wochen liefen.
- Marj (9/5): - Everything except the drilling noise Drilling and street noise
- Iris (7/5): Prima voor een paar dagen. - Dichtbij centrum. Het plafond was erg laag. Zeker als je groter dan 1.90 meter bent.
- Izabela (8/5): - Apartament czysty i położony w samym centrum gdzie było blisko do najważniejszych miejsc w celu zwiedzania. Obok dużo kafejek i restauracji. Śniadanie dosłownie 30 metrów od apartamentu. Niestety przy oknie w sypialni jest latarnia, która mocno utrudnia zaśnięcie, nie ma rolet a zasłony nie pomagały. Na szczęście gospodarz dał nam dużą narzutę, którą zasłaniałyśmy okno i dało radę spać. W łazience pod prysznicem ciepła, ale nie gorąca woda, w lecie to pewnie nie przeszkadza

- Luca (8/5): Very good stay in Athens - Posizione centralissima, camera pulita e spaziosa Palazzo malmesso, problemi con acqua calda (bassa temperatura e continuità)
- Marcin (9/5): Wszędzie blisko. - Rewelacyjna lokalizacja. W promieniu 1 km większość atrakcji turystycznych, w tym Akropol i metro. Świetne i świeże śniadania w lokalu poniżej. Wybierając się na całodniową wycieczkę, poprosiliśmy o lunch box. Otrzymaliśmy więcej, niż potrzebowaliśmy, oczywiście zestaw był bardzo smaczny. Mocne wifi, czysto i wszystko czego trzeba na kilkudniowy wypad. Brak uwag.
- Rosemary (7/5): -
- Elena (10/5): Я бы смазала даерь( сильно скрепит) и добавила микроволновку. - В шаговой доступности Акрополь и площадь Омонии( метро).Отличные апартаменты для двоих, есть все для комфортного проживания. Чисто, матрас удобный, есть кофеварка/ чайник/ плита, набор посуды. Оливковое/ подсолнечное масла, специи, вода в холодильнике и бутылка вина, капсулы для кофе машины. Простой , но сытный завтрак в пиццерии рядом( мы воспользовались только один раз, тк ездили на экскурсии. Бесконтактное простое заселение. Нет такого
- טוני (6/5): - אהבתי את הנכונות של בעל המלון לפתור כול בעיה
- Katarzyna (3/5): Dobra lokalizacja - Lokalizacja, profesjonalne podejście do gości Pana kucharza przy śniadaniu. Brak odpowiedniej liczby stolików dla gości w czasie śniadania. Mało przyjemny pokój z aneksem i łazienką.
- Lusine (10/5): Next time we will book here again - - Excellent location between Syntagma and Monastiraki (3-5 minutes walking distance to each).
- Very kind and supportive staff.
- Good restaurants next to the "hotel".
- Good breakfast (incl. in the booking price) in the Pizzeria in front of the "hotel". They also had tasty pizzas to take away.
- Wine, water and a soft drink for a child as a compliment from the "hotel".
- Elevator for the upper floors.
- The studios were equipped with an electric kettle, a sandwich maker, a coffee machine with coffee and sugar. One room had a microwave. All our rooms had a couch, a couch table and one chair. Two rooms had mosquito nets, the third one was with a balcony.
- Clean and spacious rooms.
- Good price.
- Jose Andres (6/5): Céntrico y nada mas - Muy céntrico y cerca de todo Varios elementos de la cocina no funcionaban bien y una farola justo en la ventana de la habitación que debido a una cortina muy fina no dejaba pegar, ojo en toda la noche por la luz que entraba en la habitación.
- Оlena (10/5): -
- SAAR (8/5): - המיקום מעולה קרוב להכול מרחק הליכה לכל מקום . היו מים פושרים ולא חמים במקלחת ולמרות שביקשנו שיסדר לא היה עזרה . צריך לקחת בחשבון שבדירה כזו אין שירות ניקיון ואין החלפת מגבות ואין פינוי אשפה ואין החלפת מצעים .
- Maciej (10/5): Bardzo bezpiecznie i komfortowo - Bardzo dobrze wyposażony , wszystko świetne , stosunek ceny do jakości 10/10.
Śniadanie we włoskim stylu , w apartamencie czekało wino, woda i soki . Bezpieczna okolica
- Shlomi_Avrahamov (10/5): - Great place and location.
Very recommended
- FOTIOS (10/5): -
- Mihai Ionel (10/5): Fine settimana meravigliosa - Abbiamo soggiornato in questo albergo e vi posso assicurare che non ce di meglio, non manca assolutamente nulla, tutto al superlativo. Non c'è nulla da dire
- JOBET (9/5): Parfait -
- Stephanos (7/5): -
- Massimo (8/5): Location, posizione e colazione ottima, personale gentilissimi e disponili. Solo aggiungere tenda. - La colazione era ottima, con persone ospitali e gentili. Un problema è stato il lampione stradale troppo vicino alla finestra della camera, occorre una tenda che copre completamente dalla luce esterna. Per il resto veramente ottimo. Posizione eccellente.
- Jane (7/5): -
- Philippe (4/5): Non soddisfacente staff non presente - Nulla Rumori e luce dall’esterno in camera tutta la notte
- Remy (8/5): Heerlijk. - Het was goed gelegen in een gezellige buurt.
Lekker ontbijt en Anna en haar team waren zeer vriendelijk.
Het was een gezellig ingerichte mezzanine en een goede douche.
Wij raden het iedereen aan. Voor een verblijf van 3 nachten mochten er meer handdoeken zijn.
- Marcus Lemos (9/5): Inha escada na Grécia - Limpo e tudo de primeira
- NASSIMA (9/5): -
- Βαλερια (9/5): - Εξαιρετική όλοι τους μας φέρθηκαν υπέροχα… συγχαρητήρια στην Αννα και στον Γιάννη…

- Michaela Kocurišinová (9/5): - We were very satisfied with the accommodation, excellent location in the city center, everything was within walking distance. The apartment was clean and equipped with everything we needed. Tall people might have a problem since the ceilings were quite low, just a little over 2 meters. The bed was comfortable. Be aware of the streetlight outside the window, as it was very close and at night it felt like sleeping with a lamp on. Otherwise, everything was excellent, communication was very fast and the instructions were clear.
- Marina (10/5): - Mein Aufenthalt in diesem Apartment in Athen war einfach fantastisch! Das Apartment selbst ist sehr geräumig, geschmackvoll eingerichtet und mit allem ausgestattet, was man sich wünschen kann – und sogar noch ein bisschen mehr. Im Zimmer, im Bad und in der Küche war alles vorhanden, inklusive Kaffeekapseln, Wein und Wasser – so fühlt man sich sofort willkommen. Das Bett und das Sofa sind super bequem, und die gemütliche Atmosphäre macht das Apartment zu einem echten Wohlfühlort. Die Klimaanlage ist sehr effektiv und sorgt für angenehme Temperaturen, auch an heißen Tagen.
Die Lage könnte nicht besser sein: Zwischen Monastiraki- und Syntagmaplatz gelegen, direkt neben dem zentralen Markt und einer wunderschönen Kirche, mit vielen Restaurants und Bars in der unmittelbaren Umgebung. Alles ist fußläufig erreichbar, sodass man Athen perfekt erkunden kann.
Der Gastgeber ist unglaublich herzlich und hilfsbereit. Schon direkt nach der Buchung habe ich sehr viele nützliche Informationen bekommen – zum Check-in, zu den besten Restaurants, Supermärkten in der Nähe und allem, was man sonst noch wissen sollte. Die Schlüsselübergabe über das Schließfach war unkompliziert und sehr praktisch. Ein echtes Highlight war das Frühstück in seiner Pizzeria: der Kaffee und das Gebäck waren köstlich, dazu gab es noch Brot mit verschiedenen Aufstrichen und Eier – ein wunderbarer Start in den Tag. Nach dem Check-out konnte ich sogar mein Gepäck noch dort lassen und kurz vor meiner Abreise abholen.
Alles in allem war es eine rundum gelungene Unterkunft: geräumig, gemütlich, perfekt ausgestattet und zentral gelegen – dazu ein großartiger Gastgeber. Ich habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt und komme auf jeden Fall wieder! Vielen Dank für die herzliche Gastfreundschaft – es hat meinen Aufenthalt in Athen wirklich unvergesslich gemacht. -
- HERNAN (9/5): -
- Monika (9/5): - Skvelá lokalita, výborná dostupnosť k najznámejším pamiatkam. Výborné raňajky v cene. Pouličné osvetlenie svietilo po celú noc do spálne apartmánu, ktorého okno bolo zatienené len veľmi tenkým závesom, čo nepostačovalo.
- Yana (8/5): Great place with accommodating host. - It was a great place, very comfortable, nice size, really good neighbourhood with great places to eat. The host was very helpful, the breakfast was good as well. Only thing to note is that there is a club nearby and on Saturday night there was a party but it stopped around 12 am.
- Lina (8/5): Very good -
- Garima (6/5): Excellent location - just need blackout curtains - - Location was amazing No blackout

- The (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sara (8/5): I couldn't imagine a more perfect location to explore Athens from - The apartment was fab, perfect for 2 and the bed was incredibly comfortable. I loved that there was bottled water, fruit juice, coffee pods and even a bottle of wine provided, as well as some store cupboard staples for those who might want to cook.
All bathroom essentials were provided.
The location was superb, right in the heart of Monistiraki and felt very safe.
Breakfast was good and plentiful at the owner's cafe in the same block as the apartment and it was lovely to look at the acropolis as we breakfasted. Not the owner's fault, but the street light by the side of the bed was incredibly bright and the curtains thin. We resorted to liberating a sheet of building ply from the ubiquitous skips nearby and used this to block out about 80% of the light.
- Kaj (9/5): Nice accommodation - Excellent location. Lots of restaurants nearby. Close to metro. Helpful and friendly host. Decent breakfast in a pizzeria arond the corner.
- Gillian (8/5): Great place to explore the sights of Athens - Great location, spacious and comfortable
Breakfast staff very accommodating A little noisy at night and bright light shining through the night.
Would have been nice to have fresh fruit at breakfast and a little more variety
- Geopoly (9/5): Superb -
- Zapata1914 (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rotem (9/5): Superb - Central location, clean apartment, easy communication with the hosts. Everything was just fine
- Flora (8/5): Very good -
- Lee (9/5): Wonderful stay … excellent location, great service/communication, very nice accommodations, and fabulous hosts. High - Excellent location … 5 minutes from the heart of Monastiraki and metro station. The host was prompt in reply and communicated very well. Really appreciated that. Met one of the owners and he was extremely welcoming and hospitable … just a great guy! Excellent property and amenities. Only thing that would have made my stay perfect was the air conditioning wasn’t able to cool the room to my liking especially when the weather was near 38-deg Celsius. A portable fan in the room would have helped move the cooler air in the room around the apartment.
- Tobias (9/5): Superb - Everything else :) The windows weren't sealing well to the outside so you could hear a lot of noise from outside during the night. Additionally you had to keep the AC on a lot, because there was constantly warm air coming in through the window.
- Simon (10/5): Great location & wonderful hosts - The location was ideal for seeing all the sights, the hosts Mike & Yannis were lovely, let us drop our bags off early & made us feel very welcome, brilliant breakfast and would definitely return ☺️ Leaving!! We loved Athens - the Owls nest too
- Stella (9/5): A lovely property, clean and convenient, lovely host. Pity about the noise, - It was very noisy, they made a great renovation to the property but they did install a new window. As a result, you could hear everything that was going on outside.
- Manal (9/5): Superb -
- Grace (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent location in the centre of town and great breakfast round the corner. Easy to check in and out. A little noisy at night and a street light that shines through the curtain was ok for us but might not be ideal if you are a very sensitive sleeper
- Yeskendir (10/5): Exceptional - It was clear, and very beautifull inside.
The bed was big, shower was comfortable, even coffee machine existed!
Location is nice, the center of Athens, metro station is near
- Timothy (10/5): Excellent place! And the location is next to a great street for food and drink. -
- Edward (10/5): Super location, host was very helpful. - Our breakfast was included in the price and was just around the corner from the appartment. there was plenty to eat and it was very tasty. It was all great.
- Eleni (9/5): Superb -
- Helen (10/5): Great for a couple of nights stopover in Athens. Great food at pizzeria for breakfast and any time - Really great position and small neat and tidy and perfect for 2 people Nothing really
- Dana (8/5): Very good - Great location, really nice apartment and the communication with the host was easy, all the details sent by whatsapp , nice breakfast by the pizza place at the building While using the hot water there was a weak stream.. a little bit noise from the street bus overall great stay! Pay attention that there is no shower curtain or glass
- Elsa (8/5): Very good -
- Narelle (9/5): Would highly recommend staying here. - Beds were comfy, breakfast was yummy and hosts were great to deal with.
- Liz (10/5): Exceptional - Clean and good amenities provided by host.
Very central location close to all shops and restaurants
- Geoffrey (10/5): Not long enough. - Position was great for walking to most places.
The apartment was large and comfortable.
- Helen (10/5): Great flat close to all sights shops, restaurants and bars in centre - Close to old town with lots going on. Coming back to expire further in August Nothing all good
- Lucy (8/5): Great apartment - had everything you need! - Great location, lovely breakfast, the apartment has everything you need! The property has low ceilings, my 6ft+ boyfriend had to duck between rooms.
- Alex (10/5): A cozy place - The personnel is amazingly nice and make sure you feel very welcome at breakfast. They always have a smile on their face and are easy to talk to.
The location is a good walking distance to all of Athens' main attractions.
The apartment itself was brilliant with everything you need and a good air-conditioning unit. Despite a bar being right next to it, you couldn't really hear it at night. This area in Athens feels run-down and maybe the ceiling is just a little low.
- Morgan (8/5): Lovely cosy little hideaway for 2 nights it was perfect. Owner very accommodating, would recommend - Location very good. Had breakfast at Pizzeria (outside in the rain) was good. Michael very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend and stay again. Little noise from bar opposite. You would be disappointed if you want a view.
- מו (9/5): Superb - We loved the equipment and design of the apartment and the excellent location. Excellent apartment for spending one night in Athens It's not really a place to spend a few days. The view from the window with the bars is of a neglected building a few meters away
- Martin (8/5): Very good -
- Anonymous (9/5): Superb - central location and secure
- Gary (10/5): Exceptional - Great apartment in a fantastic location close to everything in Athens. All the people at the pizza shop around the corner where you get breakfast was wonderful.
- Aneta (10/5): Exceptional -
- Maria (9/5): Great experience in the center of athens - Location, breakfast, clean, host very nice
- Fuzul (10/5): Exceptional - Cozy generously sized place at excellent location, for great price and money value. Easy check in, lot of amenities in apartment, lovely decorated and ideal for couples. Breakfast was great too, just around corner at the small restaurant which usually serves pizza. We enjoyed every detail
- Ulrich (10/5): Fantastic! - A very nice apartement with a very personal touch where they had given attention to all small details. We hope to get back. We liked everything, but there is no elevator all the way, so not for disabled.
- Julia (9/5): a memorable stay in the heart of Athens. - central location, modern design
- Diana (7/5): Good -
- Darina (7/5): Good - Nice apartment, everything that's needed for short stay
Host was very kind to let us leave luggage at his restaurant before check in time It was extremely noisy at night! From all corners, neighbors and street. It was a feeling that the bed is outside in the middle of traffic road. The walls are thin like paper and not a hint of soundproof at all. Keep it in my when you book this place to carry earplugs.
- Belinda (10/5): Exceptional -
- Adi (9/5): Superb - friendly host who deserves all the praise. purity. place location. 1. monotonous breakfast with no choice. but very satisfying .2. There is no water pressure in the shower at all.
- Shengning (8/5): Great place. Highly recommended! -
- Jddublin (10/5): We enjoyed this stunning and vibrant city from a very central location! - The whole experience was very well organised by Michael from beginning to end. All questions were answered before they were asked and he was accessible for other questions if needed. Nothing we can think of, we enjoyed the week.
- Jenniffer (9/5): We loved the location and Micheal is very nice and very responsive - They managed to squeeze everything you’d need for a 1 day to 1 week stay. We didn’t cook anything there, but we could have. There is a bar very close with loud music. But it’s not that bad.
- Teodor (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gintaras (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent location, comfortable bed. Only low ceilings would be an issue for persons above 180cm :) Yes, ceiling are probably 190cm height, with joist at one location probably 180cm. Owner should mention in flat description- for us it was not an issue.
- Hilda (9/5): Great location for weekend trip if you don't mind noisy neighbourhood - The apartment is in the city center, very easy to get around by walking. It has a hotel feel, nicely decorated. It is very noisy from the street bars around the house, so if you are planning to get some good night or day sleep, this is not your place.
- Pinelopi (10/5): this apartment made me want to live in it!cozy,comfortable in the heart of Athens !I totally recommend it and I no longe - I loved my stay in the owl!the owner made sure
the apartment is equipped with everything!
- Solène (10/5): Very nice apartment in ideal location, kind host providing lots of recomendations - Very nice and equiped appartement with ideal location in Athenes

- Martin (10/5): Exceptional - very well designed space and we thought it was perfect :) great location and lovely apartment for two only the pillows were not so great
