Stunning Acropolis View - 500m Metro - At Historical Center

Appartement avec climatisation. Ce qui est très appréciable après une longue journée a l'extérieur. 2 grandes chambres. Lit très confortable. Canapé lit. Balcon avec vue sur l'Acropole. Cuisine équipée. Serviette, draps, machine a laver, étendage etc... arrêt de bus en bas de l'immeuble. Petit commerce en bas de l'immeuble super sympa, ouvert tard. Franchement top.

L'appartement se situe au pied d'un grand boulevard, très bruyant. Mais une fois les fenêtres fermées, on entend plus rien. Quartier plaisant, moi j'ai beaucoup aimé.

The host left detailed instructions making it very simple to find the keys and locate the room. They also left instructions on operating the room, which was extremely helpful since it works differently from what is common in my country. I also loved the recommendations on nearby spots for food, groceries, sights, and fun! Each place was exactly as advertised and the list helped me have a wonderful experience in Athens.

The View!!!! It is as good as the pictures if not better!!! We spent as much time on the balcony as possible taking in the uninterrupted view of the Acropolis and the Temple of Hephaestus. We were really impressed by the quality of the apartment as it far exceeded the overall keeping of the apartment block. The bedrooms were good size and the beds so comfortable! The only access to the balcony was from the main bedroom which was fine as we were traveling as a family but may not be so ideal for couples traveling together. The location was good, we walked to all the main sights of Athens directly from the apartment. You are also only 5 minute walk to Thiseio metro stop which connects you to much of the city and Piraeus for access to the island ferries. Check in is straight forward, a lock box for the key. You’re sent clear check in instructions and also meant our late arrival was no problem. When we had queries the owner was on hand and quick to reply. He also checked we’d arrived safely and had settled in, which was a nice touch. The bakery below is excellent, really friendly and welcoming. The mini market by the entrance to the apartment block is open all hours, so very handy when we arrived late in the evening.

The apartment block is right on the edge of the tourist area, whilst we didn’t mind this as that step further back gave you the amazing view (at a great price) it won’t suit everyone. If you are trying to self cater there is no larger supermarket nearby so you are reliant on the mini market which has limited options but is open till late. The lift only has enough space for 2 people, it also has a common Athenian feature of no closing door! A little unnerving at first, we took the stairs most of the time (apartment is on 6th floor) As mentioned earlier, the entrance to the apartment block looks a little run down but our concerns were quickly dissolved when we entered our apartment as it was to a higher standard. Although it could sleep 6 this would leave little communal space as the sofa in the living room converts to an additional bed. I think it’s best suited for - maximum of 4 people

View of the Acropolis was stunning. The apartment was spacious. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. Appreciated access to a washing machine. Small grocery store beside entrance to the apartment. Short walking distance to everything. Even though we did not meet the property manager/owner, we appreciated the continuous communication throughout our stay.

The floors in the bathroom have a tendency to get wet after a shower. Also, it would be nice to have a bigger garbage can in the bathroom for toilet paper esp. if staying for multiple days. (For those reading the review, it's important to note that most places in Greece - you cannot flush toilet paper due to size of the pipes.)
