This is a spacious studio apartment with a large roof deck. The building was clean and secure. Everything worked well in the apartment. The neighborhood is busy but not loud at all. Very close to all the major attractions and many restaurants and shops.

The location on Plaka was wonderful. Food and shops everywhere. With such a central location it was quite quiet above all the activity. The host was wonderful, attentive in all the months up to arrival. He arranged airport transfer coming in which was so appreciated and needed! It's on the 4th floor but you can take an elevator from floor 2. The rooftop bar and restaurant you can see from the roof is worth a visit!

Our stay at Meno was magical! The location can’t be beat, the bed was comfortable and the assistance with the rides and coordination with George was a breeze! The only issue we had was with checkin as the contact was 30-45 minutes late that left us standing outside with our bags for a while… but since it was in a phenomenal location we had plenty to do as we waited.
The kitchen was quaint and had everything we needed. The place was just wonderful! Thank you George for a wonderful stay.
5.0 / 5.0
Fantastic location and great communication with our host. He allowed us to check out an hour later to coordinate our cruise departure which was a bonus. Only minor comment is it would be nice to have washcloths as we onky had regular towels and hand towels....other than that would definitely stay again

I stayed at this nicely appointed apartment for 12 days and loved it. The description is accurate but doesn’t adequately describe the area, in my opinion. Just step outside to a lively street full of shops and restaurants. Several grocery stores are within walking distance and so are many of the major sites. The owner arranged airport transport as well as trips to Meteora, Delphi and the nearest islands. Highly recommend this apartment and owner’s hospitality for a real 5⭐️ trip! I was traveling alone and felt safe and comfortable my entire stay. Thank you!! See you again soon.

We booked a 4 night stay. George’s unit was in a great location for walking to all the ruins as well having close access to shops, food stores, restaurants. The Apartment building had a lift which was so helpful as we had the rooftop unit and 2 full size suitcases. The unit itself had everything we needed. Bed was comfortable, there was a new air conditioner, the shower was the best we had on our entire 10 week trip. George and his colleagues were great. George arranged transportation from/to airport, to/from ferry port for our 2 night Hydra Island trip, all were handled promptly with no hassles and the 2 drivers were friendly and knowledgeable (Vasalis especially). George would have booked tickets to the sights but we had already done that prior to arrival.

Gem of an apartment in the heart of Plaka. Wonderful walks right outside and walking distance to the Acropolis. Great hosts (thank you George) and great arrangements for transportation to/from airport and pier. You cannot beat this place for value, not to mention the rooftop terrace. Thank you again!!

5.0 / 5.0
We really loved this little apartment, position was perfect, the building is very nice and roof top terrace is spectacular. It has a small kitchenette which has lots of bits and pieces but not really suitable for cooking. The only downside was the linen and pillows which were not up to standard.
5.0 / 5.0
We had a great stay here in this amazing location! Steps away from tons of restaurants and shops and about a 10 minutes walk to the Acropolis Museum. Very easy check-in process - would highly recommend this place! Thanks for a great stay!

I cannot praise my experience enough. The apartment is just as described in the listing. It was clean and very comfortable. It resides in a beautiful district full of life, history, and magic. It's quiet and clean.
The restaurant directly across the apartment building is delicious and welcoming, they play beautiful live music every night, which goes perfectly with your breathtaking view of the Acropolis and a glass of wine.
A car was arranged to pick me up at the airport. George and his team made it so easy to just arrive and enjoy my stay. When I met George upon arrival at the apartment, I felt like I was meeting a dear friend. I even booked a car last minute to take me back to the airport and my needs were met quickly.
There are so many ancient sites, shopping, and dining that are within walking distance and the walks are pleasant. The restaurants around the apartment are fantastic and I highly recommend a local food tour.
If I were to stay in Athens again, this would be my first choice for accommodation.

The property was in the ideal location, close to shops, restaurants, and all the important attractions. The accommodations were clean and well-appointed. Murphy's law tried its best to do in our trip but our host George was flexible, accommodating, and simply amazing. Because of George, nothing could prevent us from having a fantastic time! We are so grateful for the experience. Highly recommended!

This apartment was within walking distance to a lot of really nice restaurants. Walking distance to the Acropolis. We loved that we were able to walk everyway. The owner arranged a car pickup/dropoff at the airport, which was very convenient because parking in the area was very difficult.
5.0 / 5.0
The location is within walking distance to major attractions and very close to metro and buses. The apartment is exactly what it shows on the photos! The host and his associates are very responsive and helpful with my departure airport transfer. This is at the heart of Athens and the best place to be if you are a tourist like me👍

We had a great experience. Meno helped arrange a tour of Athens and car service to and from the airport. They made our stay very pleasant. The location is great and the apartment is a good value. We enjoyed our time in Athens.

We loved this studio flat in Plaka. It was located right in the middle of things so it was an easy walk to the Acropolis, Monastikiri, and the centre. The flat was small but very comfortable with a comfortable bed, well appointed bathroom, and kitchenette. Best of all it had a large rooftop patio with views of the Acropolis. Would happily use this as our base for future stays.

I usually try to rent from owners only. This property was managed by a group and they were professional, friendly and sincere. The rent was so reasonable that they weren't making much money on us but they arranged airport transportation, showed us around the Plaka, and were human in their interaction. We loved the place, I was hurt in Florence and Greece turned the trip around - Positive!
5.0 / 5.0
This property was in a perfect location for touring many areas in Athens. Every morning we enjoyed coffee on the roof top deck looking at the Acropolis. The apartment was easy to enter and we felt very safe there. The restaurants nearby were very good and the people very friendly. We could walk many of the places that we wanted to go. It was an excellent choice especially for two Americans who had no idea about where to stay in Athens!

From the marble in the stairwell to the chaises longues on the amazing deck, this place is the cat's meow! The bed was really comfortable, and the kitchenette had all the basics. No hidden charges, and George arranged our very satisfactory transfers to and from the airport. Thank you!

The apartment was just right. Well decorated, comfortable, fresh and in the best spot. Stepping out the door in the morning was a joy as we stepped into the busy friendly neighborhood complete with fun restaurants, bars and shops. George and company were so responsive to our questions and needs - so important as it was our first time in Greece. We walked everywhere we wanted to go - perfect location! Would highly recommend!

Our contact (John) was as much a pleasure as our room. He shared so much with us we felt like family. The room could not have been in a better location and the views from the patio were unforgettable.

Great location in beautiful Plaka
The apartment is cozy, not large, but with a huge patio with a view of the Acropolis. The location is perfect, right on the heart of Plaka neighborhood, only steps from dining and tavernas. At night the street below comes even more alive, with people walking and live Greek music that drifts up to the patio. The host was very helpful in all our interactions. I’d really recommend this property. We felt like this was our neighborhood.

Superior location and communication with the owner
Fantastic location in the old part of Athens where you can see Acropolis from the spacious balcony. Very clean and safe place. Easy check in. The street has great number of wonderful boutique shops and restaurants.
