Guest Reviews
- Ewa (9/5): - Super lokalizacja do zwiedzania, sam obiekt czysty i zadbany. Jeżeli jeszcze wybiorę się do Aten to na pewno skorzystam z tego obiektu. Rozkładana kanapa już trochę niewygodna.
- dario (5/5): - Die Lage ist perfekt. Dagegen ist nichts auszusetzen. Die Fotos täuschen. Die Wohnung ist ‚halbunterkellert‘ und stickig.
Klodeckel kaputt.
Föhn defekt.
Trotz der vereinbarten Abholung, kam keiner.
- Evelyn (7/5): Perfecte locatie - Locatie De defecten in het huisje. De douchekop moest je vasthouden , toiletbril zat los, niet alle stopcontacten werkten, slecht bed, lawaai ‘s nachts door de afzuiging. De communicatie met de host was niet altijd duidelijk door taalbarrière.
- Simone (5/5): Ubicación inmejorable. Apartamento bien aunque acceso incómodo y cierta dejadez en el interior. - La ubicación del alojamiento es inmejorable. En pleno centro de Placa, la zona más turística y concurrida de Atenas, pero sin que eso conllevara ruidos molestos durante la noche. El alojamiento es una única estancia, pues la habitación de matrimonio no tiene pared divisoria con el salón. En este último hay un sofá cama de dos plazas, junto a la cocina. El alojamiento está en general bien, pero desde luego NO tiene un acceso cómodo. El patio es básicamente un agujero de dos pisos de altura al que se accede mediante una escala de caracol que evidentemente no es apta para personas con movilidad reducida o vértigos. Pero esto no fue el problema en nuestro caso.
En general se nota cierta dejadez y desinterés por el estado del alojamiento: el enchufe de la tele que no funciona y que han intentado arreglar con un adaptador, la tapa del water que está rota y han intentado arreglar con pegamento, o la cortina de la ventana que tiene la cuerda rota y no se puede abrir...
Pero lo peor es la propia posición del alojamiento. Es un semisótano que, por la pendiente descendiente del patio exterior, termina teniendo una entrada normal. Pero esto significa que la ventana del cuarto, que tiene la cortina rota, se abre directamente al suelo del patio exterior. El resto de aperturas al exterior (el baño inexplicablemente no tiene ventana) dan todas al mismo lado, lo cual hace que no circule aire por la estancia (tampoco circula por el patio porque está en el fondo del agujero). El resultado es que en el alojamiento hace un calor horroroso. El aire acondicionado está mal ubicado, enfriando exageradamente el cuarto de matrimonio y nada el salón.
- Natacha (9/5): - L'emplacement est idéal
Super quartier
L'arrivée autonome est très appréciable
L'appartement est bien équipé
Nous avons passé un super séjour en famille
Merci à notre hôte
- Korpelainen (10/5): Helppoa oleskelua keskeisellä paikalla ja siistissä huoneistossa, jossa kaikki tarpeellinen. - Siisti ja erittäin viehättävä. Nettiyhteys oli melko heikko.
- Jolijn (7/5): - Nice location. Great service from owner and his friend at Plakaki cafe for luggage storage.
- Jolanta (10/5): -
- Stew (10/5): Excellent location/ clean and comfortable - Excellent location/ clean and comfortable - super friendly and helpful host Nil
- Fran (9/5): Excellent location for every part of the city. - Convenient, large enough, lovely powerful shower. Host was excellent in terms of communication and answering questions he had already provided answers for! Slightly dated.
- Michael (8/5): Very good - Great location right in the Plaka
- Belinda (9/5): Great location and facilities - Close to the Plaka and all tourist sites. Quaint holiday place- clean and tidy. Automatic lift down to the apartment. Maybe some tea/coffee would be nice.
- Ellie (7/5): Great location if a bit basic - Amazing location in the middle of Plaka. Nice little courtyard to sit out in with shade. It was very quiet. George was helpful when we had questions. The stairs to access property are pretty steep and it makes popping in and out less desirable. The kitchen could have been a bit better equipped and the extra bed was rather unstable (single camp bed). It was a bit basic for the price, in my opinion but the location was incredible, which was probably the main thing of importance.
- Leanne (10/5): Exceptional -
- Paul (10/5): Exceptional - It’s a delightful space. Everything you need. Right in the heart of Plaka but quiet.
The steps from the street down are quite fun, although if you have knee or mobility issues this is not for you.
The little luggage lift is great and essential.
We had an evening flight and George allowed us to leave luggage in the courtyard. Thank you so much.
We would stay here again anytime. Nothing. It was great.
- Aris (10/5): Great stay! - Amazing location
Well kept flat The staircase
- Gatsos (10/5): Great communication and excellent service - The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating, allowing us to drop off our bags in the courtyard while our apartment was being prepared. The location is fantastic—central, yet quiet despite being on one of the oldest and busiest streets (a fun historical fact!). We particularly enjoyed the private and intimate courtyard, a perfect spot to relax. For families, the playground right at the entrance was a huge plus, especially for our kids. Overall, it was the perfect spot for our stay. Honestly, there wasn’t much to dislike! If we had to mention something, it would be that our stay was too short to enjoy everything the location had to offer. The overall experience was so pleasant that we wished we could have stayed longer.
- Yaron (9/5): A nice apartment right at the heart of the Plaka - The location is great and the apartment is close to all Athens main attractions.
Clean and inviting The apartment is a bit tight for 5 people.
Located down a speet staircase, but suitcases are going up and down a dedicated lift.
- Giselle (9/5): Thanks to George for a convenient and enjoyable stay. - The location of the apartment was just perfect and although it was small, it had everything we needed.
- Emmy (10/5): Fantastic location and great host in the heart of Plaka. - George studio is located in a perfect location in Plaka. Conveniently located to all you would like to see!
Everything was clean. Cold A/C.
- Monika (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect location, very clean, very nice host, good contact -
- Katy (10/5): Exceptional -
- Henrique (8/5): Read before renting. - The place is great and near to everything you may want. Very easy to reach and to leave, even thou there are stairs on the streets and in the house. The place is too small to fit five persons, and the couch is very uncomfortable and dirty. It smelled to mold. There is only one air conditioner to cool the whole place. There is a glass table in the middle of the "living room" that is too dangerous to cause an accident. No microwave in the kitchen and the refrigerator was just a frigobar. If you wash any cloth on hands, there is no place to dry it.
- Wendy (8/5): Easy and central location. Very quiet - Great location Bed was lumpy and uncomfortable
- Mina (7/5): Good -
- Jasmine (10/5): We came for the first time in Athens and stay at this cute and coze studio. Elena & George made everything easy and - The location and convenience
- Pia (10/5): The apartment is great for families. Situated in walking distance to everything you need. - The location is perfect. Just a tip for the host: It would have been awesome if a bottle of cold water was waiting in the fridge by arrivel😋
- Harley (1/5): Dirty, uncomfortable, nothing like the photos - The location - Looks nothing like the photos
- Arrived to no wifi, had to insist he fixed it
- Mouldy air con (partner was sick of rest of holiday)
- jackhammering at 7am and George ‘forgot’ to mention it
- bed was a base not a mattress. Basically sleeping on concrete
- mouldy milk in the kettle (wtf)
- had to leave after night 1 and George refused a refund
- 100% would not recommend
- Johnny (8/5): Very good - The location is brilliant.George was accomdating with early check-in and late check out.
- Tatiana (9/5): Great value and Location - Prime location, literally next to the Acropolis in a hidden street that doesn't get too noisy but just around the corner to the action.
George was accommodating to our needs. Recommended. Just to know if you have mobility issues, this is not the place for you because of the stairs. Otherwise, a Gem 💎.
- Orit (10/5): Exceptional - Great location in the center of the Plaka. The studio appartment was clean and suited us (a family of 5) perfectly. ן recommend this place. Nothing
- Mandy (8/5): Very good -
- Amanda (10/5): Wonderful! George’s is a great place to stay! - Everything! Stay at George’s Studio was fantastic! Elena and George are lovely and the apartment is perfect for families. The location is sensational! Shower was a bit of a puzzle to work out how to use, but that was soon sorted with George and Elena’s help.
- Mina (7/5): great location and a great place for young people but not oldies! - it was in a great location. also the person Elen waited for us despite the flight being over an hour late in and helped us with the luggage or we would definitely not have coped carrying it up marble road steps and through to the lift built fir luggage.thank you Elen👵property was very clean . There was air extractor fa s that is in 24/7 makes slot of noise and I had to turn the entire fuse box off to stop the awful noise which kept us up. the bed is very hard . Climbing down those stairs can be a challenge without lovely Elena help we would have really struggle.
- Sume (9/5): staff was super kind! we locked ourselves out and they were very prompt in responding. - excellent location! quiet street just off a main thoroughfare with a pleasant area a few steps away to sit and enjoy. bed was a tad hard but still slept well without street noises.
- Jacqualine (10/5): Exceptional - location location location bed was a bit hard
- Brad (10/5): cozy apartment near everything! - cozy little apartment in the old city (Plaka) near all the sights. Comfortable and good price. Staff was receptive when we had issues with the shower.
- Margaret (8/5): Had a great stay at George studio. Apartment was comfortable and clean. It was close to bars restaurants Acropolis etc. - proximity to restaurants, bars, acropolis etc noise in the kitchen, that sounded like a boiler or water bubbling all night.
- Annette (7/5): Good - George was fantastic with collecting us from airport after numerous flight changes. The bed very hard but most private accommodation use these mattresses. Washing machine not usable and no washing rack available to put clothes on to dry.
- Luis (10/5): It is in a perfect location, close to all our planned activities. The studio was clean and well taken care of. George wa -
- Brit (8/5): What a family friendly gem in the Plaka! - We loved having George come and meet us at the airport, and introduce us to the Plaka, and his property.
Wonderful service and we felt very welcome!
- Kiran (7/5): Good -
- Dr. (9/5): Great host, fantastic location and super friendly local people. - Fantastic location was very quiet though and nice and cool. friendly host. Although a spiral staircase to get to the property there is a lift for your luggage. no kettle or microwave
tv wasn’t working but wifi strong enough to watch stuff on a tablet
- Jamie (9/5): A great time! - George was an excellent host, meeting us at 3am to get us checked in when our flight arrived at a rough hour. The location was excellent, in plaka, right outside the gate if you looked up the hill you could see the acropolis. It was a perfect location. The only thing I would have enjoyed better would be the bed. It was a pretty uncomfortable bed, but the host made up for everything that could have been improved by his kindness with allowing a middle of the night check in, and allowing us to check out late. Plus location was perfect!
