Guest Reviews
- MIkhail (8/5): - Die Wohnung ist wirklich sehr gross. Wir waren zu acht (drei Familien) dort und hatten alle genügend Platz. Dank der zwei Badezimmer mit WC und Dusche gab es selbst morgens keinen „Stau“.
Die Lage ist hervorragend: In nur etwa 100 Schritten erreicht man die Metro, und die Akropolis ist nur drei Stationen entfernt. Der Balkon ist riesig und perfekt für ein gemeinsames Frühstück oder Abendessen geeignet. Das einzige Problem war, dass nur selten warmes Wasser verfügbar war. In den meisten Fällen musste man kalt duschen.
- Maria (7/5): Es war eine schöne geräumige Wohnung - Alles gut erreichbar, hat für uns gestimmt Küche ist teilweise erneuerungsbefürftig…
- Rania (8/5): - Perfect location close to the Metro. adequate rooms and comfortable beds for six adults and two children.
- Fatjona (8/5): -
- Tiborné (10/5): Remek választás, jó közlekedés - Nagyon elégedettek voltunk a szállással. Kiváló helyen található, a metrómegálló és egy bolt is 1 perc sétára van, így a közlekedés és a bevásárlás is rendkívül kényelmes. A főbb látványosságok mindössze 2-3 megállónyira helyezkednek el, ami külön nagy előny volt számunkra. Kedvünkre való éttermet is találtunk a közelben.
A szállás tiszta, rendezett és jól felszerelt volt, minden adott volt a kellemes pihenéshez. Az ágyak kényelmesek, így igazán jól tudtunk aludni. Nyolc fő számára is bőven elegendő hely állt rendelkezésre, senki sem érezte szűkösnek.
Külön plusz, hogy minden szobához tartozik terasz, illetve a nagy közös teraszon egy kényelmes étkezőasztal is található, ahol nagyon jókat lehet enni és beszélgetni.
Összességében remek választás, szívesen visszatérnénk! Az emeletes ágy nyikorog, azt lehet, hogy jobb lenne lecserélni.
- marina (5/5): - The apartment was in a very good location. And it was quite big. We found the apartment freezing - we froze on the first night. The air conditioners were not turned on… At least when you are expecting a guest, the heating should be turned on. The problem was the hot water, there were 9 of us in the apartment, and after 1 person washed the water got cold. The water was constantly cold… In the 21st century, hot water shouldn’t be a problem. The kettles for cooking were terrible… damaged (I noticed on the day we left that they had brought new ones). There was no coffee maker… There was no table in the kitchen… It was very inconvenient,

- Ειρήνη (9/5): - Το κατάλυμα ήταν άνετο για δύο οικογένειες και ειχε κοντά περίπτερο, στάση μετρό, ψητοπωλείο, ζαχαροπλαστείο. Είναι σχετικά κοντά στο κέντρο. Η θέρμανση ήταν air condition, οπότε πήρε λίγη ώρα για να ζεσταθεί ο χώρος. Οσο αφορά τη καθαριότητα ήταν μέτρια
- Yolcu (8/5): - Konumunu ve yatak odası sayısının çokluğu nu sevdim.
- Hercilia (10/5): - De kamers zijn mooi en groot, met grote kledingkasten. Bedden zijn ook heel comfortabel. De ruimte voor de keuken is op zich groot, maar de indeling niet efficiënt. Te weinig werkruimte om voedsel te voorbereiden.
- Marion (7/5): - La localisation, l'appartement bien agencé et spacieux. La terrasse.
Le souvlaki en bas de la rue est incroyable ! L'eau chaude est vraiment instable malgré le suivi des consignes et la demande d'aide au loueur. Ok les deux premiers jours puis douches froides ensuite 🫤
La table à l'extérieur est appréciable sauf quand il fait un peu froid en soirée, nous avons mangé dans le salon sur les tables basses, pas très pratique à beaucoup. Une petite table pliante d'intérieur pourrait servir.
Les portes sont TRES bruyantes, un peu d'huile serait bienvenue.
- Idan (9/5): - easy on the door.

- Randy (5/5): Honest review from an American traveler — great location, but a lot of frustrations - Speaking as an American used to certain creature comforts, here’s an honest take for those with a similar mindset when traveling.
The location is hands-down the best part of Cosmos Skyview Residence. You’re close to metro stations, grocery stores, cafés, and just a couple of stops from the Acropolis. The apartment is spacious, has multiple terraces, and the Wi-Fi is decent (though it drops off in the far half of the home without a repeater). But beyond that, there are some major drawbacks to be aware of as noted in the next section. Beds: The mattresses were absolutely terrible — hard and uncomfortable. After long days of walking 10–12 miles (16–19 km) plus our 3–4 mile (5–6 km) runs, quality sleep was essential. Instead, it was nearly impossible for anyone in our group to get a truly restful night.
Dining setup: The only “dining table” is outdoors. During our stay, temps averaged in the high 90s°F (mid-30s°C), making it unthinkable to eat outside. For a property this size, not having an indoor dining option is simply irresponsible.
Air conditioning: The AC mostly worked — two bedrooms and the living area were fine — but two other bedrooms had older units that struggled. On day one, it took 10–12 hours for one room to cool. In Athens heat, strong, reliable AC is non-negotiable. Even when running, some rooms felt muggy/damp, which may be a settings issue or just weak performance.
Refrigerator: Inconsistent. At times it chilled food and drinks; other times it froze them. Space is limited, and since we like to cook, the lack of storage containers meant we had to store leftovers in pans, taking up precious room.
Hot water: Easily the most frustrating issue. In 8 days, I had exactly one warm shower — never hot. The owners did come and “fix” it once, which worked for one shower, then back to cold. We followed the exact instructions every time, but hot water was random at best, like playing Russian roulette. For a property at this price point, this is unacceptable.
Keys: Only one set for a group of nine is ridiculous. This meant constant coordination for comings and goings. The lockbox was unreliable, with bulky keys jamming it more than once. One night, some of us returned while others were asleep inside — we were stuck outside for 30 minutes waiting to be let in.
If location is your top priority and you can overlook the above, this place could work.
- Olena (10/5): -
- Iryna (8/5): - Чисті, просторі апартаменти , були компанією 9 чоловік,місця всім вдосталь.Простора тераса ,де є великий стіл і приємно снідати чи повечеряти.Кондіціонер працював у всіх кімнатах вправно.Якщо двері на терасі відкриті, достатньо чутно дорогу з автівками поруч.Поряд з апартаментами також є магазин та кафе,станція метро ,2 зупинки і ви біля музею Акрополя.Пішки це займає десь 20-30 хвилин.Нам дозволили лишити речі до заселення з 12.00 години, але ця відповідь прийшла в повідомленнях запізно.Відносно ціни і якості гарний вибір.
- Olivares (10/5): - accesible cerca el metro. muy facil de llegar
- MAJED (10/5): Good choice in Athens - The size of the apartment is way above average in rooms plus the patio all over
Also, metro and transportation around the corner and supermarket also restorants Dining table outdoors in the patio
Was hoping it would be inside, especially in summer, for us it was okay
- Isabel (10/5): Brilliant stay, would come back! - The apartment was located in a great spot, in walking distance of many restaurants, local shops, transport links, and cultural places. Due to the hot weather we did end up getting many taxis.
The apartment was a well decorated, spacious apartment. Brilliant size for a family or group of friends. There was lots of chairs around the apartment. The air conditioning was powerful and installed in each bedroom and the living room. The kitchen had lots of equipment, cutlery and utensils. There is also a washing machine, maiden, clips and baskets for clothes. The 2 bathrooms functioned well.
The bedrooms had lots of storage and extra pillows and duvet / blankets which was a nice plus. The artificial and natural lighting was great all around the house. They also installed blackout blinders if you don't want any sun coming through.
There were multiple balconies around the apartment, so it was lovely to sit outside in the mornings. There is a large table with chairs outside to eat on.
A nice touch was the leaflets for takeaways, wifi connection, and how to turn on the hot water. The TV had a signal, and some of the channels had English speaking content.
You must call the company number and add them on WhatsApp so that you can communicate with the team. They are responsive and helpful.
Overall, it was a great stay. I would come back here with my friends and family. The mattresses were not very comfortable but not terrible. They were a hard type of mattress, which might be good for some.
- Grzegorz (9/5): Good vibes - Very nice appartment, a lot of space (4 bedrooms were big „plus”). Super clean. Very nice terrace places around the whole appartment.
Excellent localization - only 1min from metro station (recommend to buy 5-day transport ticket)
Service was super fast Creaking doors, making a lot of noise.
- Uldis (8/5): Great apartment in amazing location! - Great apartment in amazing location just few steps from metro stop which basically grants you easy access to the whole city! Little issues with hot water and bare minimum of toilet paper provided.
- Ns (5/5): Absence of hot water at morning and of table/chairs in living room may compromise your overall stay - The apartment is very well connected to the city center and some supermarket, bar, restaurant are by walk distance. Building with large elevator to the apartment's floor. Living area quite large with sofa. The kitchen is sufficiently equipped for cooking. Microwave available. One of the 4 bedroom is very large. Balconies are large and equipped with tables and chairs so in summer you may not have problems in having your meals sitting outside on the balcony. We were give the possibility to enter before check-in time and to leave our luggages after check-out time. Area a bit noisy at night: if you are sensitive, you may ear motorbikes and cars. Incredibly there are are no table and no chairs in the living room so we had to find alternative ways to have our meals in the way we consider proper i.e., all together seated at the same table. One of the two bathroom is quite small. 3 out of 4 bedroom are quite small and mine did not have electrical outlet near the bed. No smart TV nor international channels available. Hot water was a nightmare for us because there was no way to have it at morning despite my complains with landlord and booking client service. We were given instructions for switching on the electric boiler, we followed them but no way to get hot water at morning. We were also challenged by the property to demonstrate the problem and this was perceived as lack of respect by us. At the end, the property admitted that the electric boiler probably needs to be repaired. Unfortunately this happened the day before our departure.
- Lama (9/5): Superb - I liked everything.. the assistant location and cleaning.. it was a good stay I liked everything
- Magdalena (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lilian (8/5): Very good -
- Yanfeng (9/5): If you don't mind take the Metro, it is a very good location! - Clean and valuable. One of the toilet has no lid, but the host repair it the next day after we contact them.
- Keta (10/5): Exceptional -
- Alexandre (10/5): Exceptional -
