Not sure how I feel.
Very mixed feeling about this property. Owner is very nice so I’d like to say I loved it. Unfortunately, as an American there are things I’m just not used to and there are a ton of requirements. In order to shower you have to flip power switch for 20 minutes or you don’t get hot water. To use over you pull a propane tank from below to turn gas on and off. You get two keys, but one must remain in a specific place or all the power other than refrigerator will turn off, so you can’t really use both. And, so on. A lot to remember for a few nights stay. Also, needs a good deep cleaning.

Two bedroom European typical apartment. So for an American small but sufficient. Well stocked, literally everything you could possibly need they had including a small washer. The area is super convenient for seeing the sites. Within walking distance of everything. Lots of great restaurants really close as well. Property manager is super helpful. Great place to stay!

Yannis was a really great host and the apartment was in a very nice quiet Plaka location. Only issue was that the apartment was not very well cleaned. However, everything else was great and our host went out of his way to help make our stay great.

This is a gorgeous apartment right in the Plaka. Perfect for two couples complete with a library, fully equipped kitchen and the best host in the world. Yannis met us as we arranged in time, and full of tips and stories. He recommended a rooftop restaurant that was out of this world for food and views of the Parthenon. Thank you Yannis!

Spacious apartment in a great location
Superb location! Close to pretty much everything you would do if the intent of your visit was to tour the Acropolis. The host is very friendly, is thorough, makes you feel very welcome and provides you with a ton of information before you begin your stay. The apartment is spacious with pretty decor and quite secure. The only drawback is that water from the shower tends to spill out of the shower area on to the bathroom floor. But for that this is a wonderful place to stay!

LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION! Location is excellent. Can walk to all the sights. Never needed a taxi except for airport transfers. Lots of restaurants, bars, coffee, shops, etc very close by. Staff very accommodating and helpful. Only nonpositive comment is that it was listed as a 4 star accommodation, but I would think more of a 3-3.5 star , which is fine to be in the center of the city. We stayed as a family of 5. Beds for 4 were good. Sofa bed for my son was ok.
