We are two 60's couples and my 30's son. This was a pre-cruise stay in Athens and chosen for it's location. We really enjoyed our stay in Athens and in this apartment. We were able to walk everywhere including to our Acropolis tour which was very close. There are lots of places to eat and drink nearby and we especially enjoyed breakfast about a block away. The apartment was very nice and updated.
Note that all the bedrooms and bathrooms are in the lower level. I would definitely stay here again. The hose also arranged transport for us from the airport and to the cruise port and they were great.

From the moment I walked into the unit, I immediately smelled a damp/musty odor. All the bedrooms are essentially downstairs in the basement of the building. As soon as I came downstairs, the odor became stronger. The biggest red flag was that there is a dehumidifier in one of the rooms. I notified the host of my concerns. He advised me to keep the dehumidifier on, as well as the A/C in the hallway. Needless to say, I didn’t sleep well at all during my short 2 night stay, as I was up coughing constantly. Upon further investigation, I discovered black mold in the unit. It was on the walls and in the shower – disgusting! I notified the host of this after I left. He admitted that he KNEW about the issue and planned to remedy the situation moving forward. He gave me a 25% refund (which was unsatisfactory to me) but I’m more upset that the host was aware that there is black mold in the unit and still proceeded to rent the unit out to someone. My husband has health issues (recent kidney transplant recipient and cancer patient) and I have horrible allergies. Had I known they had an issue with black mold, I would have canceled this booking and looked elsewhere. In any event, I do not recommend staying here.
Good things to note:
1) Check-in was easy and the instructions were clear.
2) Host was responsive and helped coordinate transportation to/from the airport.
3) You can't beat the location! Close to all the main attractions in Athens and good shops/restaurants.

This was perfect for our large family group of 6 people. The location is ideal for visiting the historic parts of Athens, and was clean and convenient. I particularly appreciate the timely and helpful communication with the manager. We also used their shuttle service which was extremely convenient and professional.

The location of the apartment is perfect. There are lots of great restaurants near by, and we were easily able to walk to see the Acropolis light up at night.
The host sent clear check-in instructions with pictures the day before, so that was easy. We took a couple of day trips to the islands, and he arranged transportation to and from the airport for us, which was extremely helpful for our party of 6.

Great location and very attentive management. The apartment is a bit smaller than the pictures show and it was unclear to us that we would be sleeping in the basement just off a loud and busy street. All I’m all it was a good place to stay nonetheless
