Square's View Agia Paraskevi

Very good location outside of touristic centers and right in front of a park that seems to be used mostly by local population. The rooftop is really nice to chill and relax in the evening. Everything is comfortably reachable by public transport.

The bathroom is too small. Sink and shower are still somewhat okay, but toilet is not very comfortable to use.

Geweldig uitzicht

Badkamer had iets ruimer gekund

The location is a top floor efficiency with a spacious private terrace overlooking the town square and great views of the mountains. I stayed to be with my daughter who studies at the Univ. Very coinvent and close to school. The area is very safe. The restaurants and shops are plentiful and right out side your door. The apartment is new with a modern vibe. Wi-Fi, Queen bed, closet space, kitchen, fridge, micro, oven, stove, coffee maker and utensils..etc.. The space inside is doable for two people, and the large terrace makes it perfect during nice weather. The terrace has nice patio furniture to enjoy the day.

The design of the unit results in a small bathroom. The sink and shower are fine, but the toilet is a tight fit. Its workable, but, 6" from the wall is tight. Nothing can be done to change this, but be informed. The landlord will give you a set of keys. 1- for the unit door and 1- for the building entrance. The keys are on a chain soldered to a credit card type device that inserts into a wall mounted electrical shut-off. When you leave for the day, you pull the card out and this shuts off the electricity to the unit (saves on elec bill I guess). When you return, you stick the card back in the slot and the apartment has power. This seems like a reasonable idea, however, if you need to charge your phone or electronics during the day, if you leave, there will be no power. Also, and this is the big one, I'm from the US. I carry my keys in my pocket. You can't carry the keys here because the card needs to be in the wall socket to have power and lights while you're in the unit. The key chain is soldered together so the three can not be separated. I am not conditioned to pull keys out of a wall holder. If I leave and forget the keys, or, the door shuts behind me by accident, I'm are locked out of the apartment! This happened late Saturday evening as I was saying good bye to my daughter. I'll spare the details, but I was able to get back in with a mild inconvenience. I would strongly recommend that the keys be dethatched from the electric card, and just leave instructions to the guest to pull the card when they leave. Last thought. When I arrived, I took a Uber/Taxi from the Airport (about $35-40E). The address I printed off the Booking.com page was actually a general address for the Square area, not the physical address of the building. My driver was able to get me in the general area, then he was kind enough to call the landlord to get the actual location.

The private patio overlooking the area. I also liked that the square where it was located was buzzing and had lots of cafes.

It was a little on the small side but for a solo traveler it was perfect.
