Guest Reviews
- Sebastián (10/5): Hogar - La comunicación con el anfitrión desde el principio fue muy fluida, siendo amable y servicial, cosa que se agradece. Llegamos y desde el primer momento la sentimos como si fuese nuestra casa, acogedora, con todo lo necesario para nuestra estancia. Cálida. En cuanto a la ubicación es inmejorable, estás en pleno centro sin tener el jaleo de las masas turísticas pasando en una constante por tu ventana, o sea que increíble. Bajabas a la calle y en dos minutos estabas en el jaleo, pero en cambio entrabas en el edificio y al piso y todo era silencio y paz, cosa que vas a agradecer cuando te veas rodeado de masas de turistas durante horas. Si vas con bebé, como es nuestro caso, es tu lugar porque si necesitas hacer un descanso de patear o surge lo que sea, lo tienes cerca de todo y en nada llegas. Muy top y muy agradecido por estos días teniendo un sitio que se siente como propio!
- Aga (10/5): - Rewelacjyjna lokalizacja . Bardzo blisko Akropolu.
Mega pomocny właściciel. -
- Florian (5/5): Great central location for city trip to Athens - very central location next to Acropolis museum, relatively newly renovated, nice kitchen with huge fridge, TVs in both rooms (did not use) and balcony; apartment in 2nd floor and fully equipped. The apartment floor and the couch seemed to be longer not decently cleaned; only bathroom door could be closed, both doors to living room (with couch for kids) and sleeping room were not able to completely close, one could be closed half, the other one was renovated (repainted) and did not fit anymore. In the entrance area of the building (not in the apartment) we stepped on a cockroach; Wifi Signal and connection was not good in the apartment;
- Magdalena (10/5): - Perfect location, walking distance to every tourist attraction. -
- Nir (9/5): -
- Vlada (10/5): - Very comfortable and cozy
- Mateusz (9/5): - Obiekt bardzo dobrze zlokalizowany. Do najważniejszych atrakcji bardzo blisko, spacerkiem. Bardzo dobra komunikacja z gospodarzem. Mieszkanie do rzęs wyposażone. Trzeba popracować trochę nad czystością.
- Stéphanie (10/5): Nous avons passé un agréable séjour au sein de l établisse - Très bien situé pour visiter Athènes ! Ainsi que la restauration tout à proximité 1 ou 2 plaids pour dormir aurait été un plus !
Ainsi que les oreillers !
- Vincenzo (7/5): - la posizione veramente eccellente il bagno, con la vasca è un pò piccolo e non ci sono lampade sui comodini.
- vincenzo (9/5): - LA posizione della casa è fantastica, due passi dall'acropoli, 2 minuti a piedi, ottimo per spostarsi con tutti i servizi essenziali per muoversi nella città. L'appartamento non è enorme ma essenziale negli spazi, condominio tranquillo come la strada. 2, massimo 3 persone è l'ideale. le tende della camera da letto erano macchiate, un paio di asciugamani in più ma sopratutto per stare nel balcone serve l'ombrello. Ad atene gli scarichi dei condizionatori scaricano le gocce d'acqua a cielo aperto. Non siamo riusciti a trovare una paletta per raccogliere la spazzatura
- Mariya (8/5): - Great location, quite and save, close to all attractions. Mini market, supermarket and restaurants all around. Super supportive and responsive host, small and cozy apartment. Fully equipped kitchen. - There was some smell of humidity, maybe it is a building issue
- the sofa is very dirty with strains and needs a deep cleaning
- the shower nozzle is attached low so you have to hold shower had in your hands while taking a shower
- have to remember and switch on the hot water 30 min before, not a big deal for us, but not very convenient
- a mirror in the corridor would be very helpful
- the bathroom floor was getting wet, probably there was some water leak
- Georgios (9/5): Άνετο κατάλυμα στην καρδιά της Αθήνας - Τέλεια τοποθεσία , άνετο σπίτι και εξαιρετική εξυπηρέτηση από τον οικοδεσπότη Χρειάζεται μια καλή γενική καθαριότητα και ένα τσεκ σε μια διαρροή που πιθανότατα έρχεται από τον θερμοσίφωνα. Κατά τα άλλα ήταν όλα τέλεια.
- Andrea (9/5): Great location, easy access and responsive host! - Easy access via a lockbox. I appreciated the quick response as I booked very last minute. Perfect location and surprisingly quiet with the windows closed.
I loved the small balcony, and you could see the Parthenon if you looked at right angle :) The couch could use a deep clean or replacement. Needing to remember to turn the hot water on 20 minutes ahead of using it isn't ideal, but not that big of a deal.
I now know it's quite common for the shower head not to have a hook to hang it in Greece, but it seems to me it would be possible in this particular bathroom, and it would be nice for travelers.
- Paul (9/5): Court séjour de visite facilité par le parfait emplacement de l’appartement. - Grande qualité et l’emplacement . Le manque de lampes de chevet
- wojciech (10/5): - To miejsce idealne. Czysto, wygodnie i w świetnej lokalizacji. Nie mogłem trafić lepiej. Nie znalazłem ani jednej rzeczy która by mi się nie podobała
- Vaskovic (9/5): - Локацијај е савршена на два минута од музеја Акропољ не може биље, чистоћа, лака комуникација са власником... На одмору смо били па мало шта може да ми смета али паркет је у баш лошем стању шкрипу и на једном месту упадне нога и гарнитура која се развлачи је јако неудобна за спавање.
- laird (10/5): - Great little apartment great location clean and quite. No microwave.but we managed find without it
- Petronella (10/5): Fijn verblijf op een goede centrale plek in de stad. Op loopafstand van bezienswaardigheden. - Geweldige plek in de stad, dicht bij bezienswaardigheden en toch rustig.
Vriendelijke en behulpzame host. Fijn appartement. Niets.
- 叶小青 (10/5): - 有电梯,厨房干净设备齐全,位置好,离卫城近,步行十分钟左右可到达。 到早了,没到Check in 时间,没地方存行李,在洗衣房鼓捣好久也没存上行李,耽误了两小时以上。希望没到时间至少有可以免费存放行李的地方。其他都挺好的。
- Maria (10/5): -
- elizabeth (8/5): Confortable et bien situé - Appartement très confortable et bien situé Il manque juste des lampes de chevet ds la chambre
- Amanda (10/5): Felt like I was living in Athens! - Clean and cool. We were so thankful for this place of reprieve from the heat. Close to great restaurants. And walking distance to all the things!
- Augustine (10/5): - Location was the best!!!
- Jane (9/5): Great location, excellent value - Enjoyed being in a ‘neighbourhood’ where locals eat, drink, shop as well as tourists. Bed comfy, plenty of space. Nothing
- Doretta (8/5): Very good -
- Zaharia (10/5): Exceptional -
- John (8/5): Comfortable apartment in great location - Location fantastic. N/A
- Dimitrios (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anushree0306 (10/5): Exceptional - Very comfortable, excellent location, host went above and beyond to help with any questions. Highly recommended to anyone who wants to live around acropolis and have a cosy home during their vacation at Athens. Mini Mart, supermarket, laundromat, restaurants everything is walking distance from the house. Nothing, everything was excellent
- Ruta (9/5): If the showerhead was wall-mounted, I would definitely stay again :) - The apartment is in a perfect location and has windows facing a quiet street. There is even a partial view of the Acropolis from the bedroom window :) Place has everything for a comfortable stay. The shower is not very comfortable for tall people (180cm+) as the ceilings are very low. Also, it should be a crime to make people hold the shower head in their hand :).
The place is definitely missing some smaller lights in the living room, as there is only one ceiling lamp.
Also, unfortunately, the wifi was incredibly slow, so working was not an option.
- Novariska (8/5): Spacious, clean and right in the centre of acropolis - Spacious, clean and right in the centre of acropolis The bathroom has no exhaust so it got really steamy when taking your shower. More pillows please.
- Patricia (9/5): Superb - Great location. Geat communication. Some of the best check-in instructions ever seen!
- Tom (9/5): Superb -
- Ashley (10/5): Great! - The apartment was just the right size. Beds were comfortable and there was a lot of storage. The neighbourhood is just far enough away from the major tourist spot to have good prices at the restaurants, but close enough to the e acropolis for easy walking. The owners also organised taxis for us from the airport and to the Piraeus port. Like many European bathrooms the shower nozzle is attached low so you have to hold it or sit down. We made do but I’m not sure why they do this.
- Miloslav (10/5): Good location and is close to the sights - good location, affordable price for Athens center, close to the Akropolis, balcony, fully equipped kitchen, towels and body soaps available, very modern and lovely apartment the door on the toilet needs some hangs to be able to close it properly
- Aistė (8/5): For short time- very good - Very good location, new equipment (except the floor), you could see part of the Acropolis through the window. When staying with the family for a long time, it is not convenient to eat, because the table is in the corridor. It was hot, so there was no air conditioning in the bedroom (there was only a breeze).
- Georgios (10/5): Exceptional - Location, comfort, cleanliness, communocation with property manager. Weak internet connection (needed for my work).
- Eimear (9/5): I would definitely stay there again - Lovely location - it's a very busy part of this city but this tree-lined street is a little quiter and more local, with lovely cafes and local businesses
- M______j (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect strategic and central location, quiet at night. Modern apartment and comfortable bed! We had a wonderful stay! The host replied quickly to our request before arrival.
- Marta (9/5): Superb - Great location, silent. Comfortable beds. We could not make the coffee mashine work. All other was great.
- Oleg (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jacyln (10/5): Excellent stay in a beautiful apartment - Beautifully presented in a great location. Easy to access and great communication by the owners.
- Theodoros (10/5): Amazing location - Everything was perfect! Everything was perfect!
- Iago (9/5): Very good one! - The house is very well located near the metro and the Akropolis. The host were very easy to communicate and to provide clear instructions upon checkin and checkout.
The house was very clean and organized. Indeed exceeded my expectations. Only thing is that the bedroom wooden floor was quite noisy but its a minor detail, no much to dislike. As mentioned it exceeded my expectations.
- Marc (10/5): Incredible apartment in the city center - New and clean apartment a few meters away from the Acropolis museum Everything was great
- Ac (6/5): A good enough Athens apartment, not the best, not the worst - Good location, nice décor, easy to self check-in even with late flight arrival, host was quick to respond to queries, comfy bed and living area, adequate storage Kitchen bin was full on arrival, no A/C in the bedroom - it's only in the living room, construction during the week early in the morning in the building which isn't avoidable but it is unpleasant so something to be aware of - not sure how long it'll last, floorboards in the bedroom are loose and sagging which is unsafe - the host is aware and booked maintenance, would be nice have more hooks/racks for towels to hang and dry
- Cynthia (10/5): Great apartment for 1st time in Athens - The apartment is very clean and organized. The location is perfect, especially if it's your first time in Athens. The neighborhood is safe and walkable to everything. Our family is happy with our stay.😊 No complaints 👌
- Vasja (9/5): Superb - Nice, clean and cozy apartment at a very good location. Many historical attractions of Athens are on walking distance, as well as some very nice restaurants.
Recommended!
- Orin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anonymous (9/5): Superb - this is a really nice and clean flat. comfortable bed and just enough space to accommodate 3 people. perfect location (close to acropolis metro station), lots of places to eat & drink on the street but the flat was quiet at night so no issues with a good night sleep. host was very responsive and available for our enquiries (also provided extra pillows when requested). we would definitely consider staying again. we stayed in mid-June and the weather was fine at night in the bedroom. I would have liked to know that there is an AC option in the bedroom if I was to go in July-August. The bath has a shower head but the holder was way too low. This is manageable for a couple of days but it would significantly improve the experience if we were to stay longer. Finally, a full length mirror in addition to the sink mirror would be a delight.
- Jacqueline (8/5): Comfortable flat and great location - Great location, although on a main street, flat was at the back and not too noisy. Lovely decor No batteries in fan remote to operate it but quickly rectified by host.
Aircon only in lounge, but I think that is reflected in the very reasonable rental price.
- Stephan (9/5): Superb -
- Dana (9/5): Fantastic flat in a super convenient location - This was actually my second time staying here — I first stayed here a few years ago, and I was excited to return to this wonderful spot. It’s spacious, and the location is hard to beat. It’s so close to the main touristy sights that we were able to come back for a break whenever we wanted without feeling like we were spending loads of time in transit. However, it’s still quiet at night. We used the kitchen a fair bit during our stay and felt that it was well-equipped for our needs. The only complaint from us is about the shower situation — there was no holder for the shower head that was above head height so one hand was always needed to hold the shower head, which made it difficult to shower properly in general and downright impossible to wash one’s hair.
- Eleni (9/5): Superb - Great location! Good neighbourhood, next to metro station. The appartment was clean and comfortable and it had anything we needed. The host was very helpfull and was answering on time. The tv and fan was not working in the bedroom but we did not need it, so all good.
- Sahar (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gregor (10/5): Cool, cozy and central. - Everything! Really cool and right under the acropolis hill, next to the museum with some really nice bars and restaurants around. We loved it! /
- Ivan (10/5): Exceptional - Comfortable, quiet, centrally located. Good value for money.
- Aine (8/5): Great apartment and location, a few tweaks and would be fab!! - The location of the apartment was excellent. It is only about a 5 min walk from the Acropolis metro station, The Acropolis itself and a street away from the Acropolis museum. It was easy to access the keys from the lockbox (code of which is only sent the night before arrival), we found the apartment building to be relatively quiet .There are plenty of great eating options nearby and a lovely Italian restaurant just outside the building door. The host can be contacted via email if needed or phone. It is a great base for an Athens stay. The apartment was quite clean but the bedroom shelves/drawers and those in the kitchen could do with being dusted in between guests. It would also be beneficial to have a folder with some of the apartment info in it, for example how to switch on the hot water, where to throw the rubbish etc. would save having to email the hosts to ask. It would also be handy to contact the host via whats app instead of email. Having a sweeping brush and dust pan in the apartment would be great to keep things clean if eating in over a few days. With regards to having the tv in the apartment it really is pointless if there isn't any international stations or netflix installed or no batteries in the remote. The keys are accessed via a lock box on a pillar outside, there are 6 lock boxes so maybe numbering or color coding them would speed up locating the correct one.
These are only small suggestions and if all sorted would make the apartment a fab place to stay in while enjoying the sights of Athens.
- Anonymous (9/5): Superb -
- Anonymous (7/5): Good -
- Arpad (4/5): Disappointing -
- Kathrin (9/5): GREAT LOCATION AND SUPER CLEAN! - Only a ceiling fan in the bedroom. AC is only in the living room. If you stay there during the summer and you have to sleep in the bedroom the room temperature is to hot. The ceiling fan will not cool it down enough.
