So close to everything! Able to walk everywhere we wanted to see. Right on the hop on hop off bus routes (although we didn’t need to use it). Highly recommend

The location of the property is fantastic and the view is spectacular. Very clean and host is very responsive.

Great central location. Fantastic balcony view of acropolis and Temple of Olympian Zeus. Walkable to main sites and metro. Great pizza restaurant/ take away below the apartment and local store.
There was traffic noise due to location but we expected that and it didn’t at all affect our enjoyment. We embraced being in the heart of the city and soaking up the Athens vibes.

La vue est magnifique !
La salle de bain est un peu vétuste

The view and location are great. The rooms were clean, the check in and instructions to get in the apartment were clear. Perfect for a family Trip to Athens.
The first code for opening the door did not work. Called and got a working code within 5 minutes.
The coffee machine was not working, someone came to check and "make sure" it was not working, reassuring us that it will get fixed as soon as possible. Unfortunately it did not get fixed or exchanged during our stay.

The balcony and views are beyond compare and the location is very central - great restaurants and tourist attractions within walking distance. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. Cold air con and efficient internet.
The shower screen is broken (one panel is completely missing) so the showere recess doesn't close off. There was a funky smell in the bathroom when we arrived so we bought a room diffuser to help mask it. It would be nice to have washing ppwder/liquid provided for the washing machine.

That view! Could’ve sat for hours looking at the view of the Acropolis but we had so much to see! Did enjoy sitting there for a wee while though, watching the sun go down with a glass of wine.
Felt the furniture was a little dated but very comfortable bed, loads of wardrobe space and nice little kitchen area.

The view and location is great.
Everything is fine, small lifts to get to apartment but that’s Athens I guess.

Location is excellent. Extensive balconies with great views
Shower / bathroom

Great location with a prime view of the Acropolis
The shower was very bizarre, there was no place to hang the hand held shower nozzle and there was no shower curtain so you have sit in the tub and hold the shower nozzle with one hand. There was also a sign saying not to flush any toilet paper… what are you supposed to do, put it in the rubbish can?? Ewww

i like everything about property
The only minus is that elevator wasn’t working and we had to carry suitcases to 6th floor
4.3
Great location, brilliant views from a wrap around balcony. Very spacious apt. Communication between myself and the Greek holiday company were excellent. All questions answered almost instantly.
The lift was old and very slow. The 2 person lift did not open on a floor which caused a bit of panic for a few minutes until I pressed the button to return to ground zero. I then used the 4 person lift for the rest of my stay.

Lovely large apartment with long wrap around balcony giving amazing views of the Acropolis and Pantheon. All facilities available for self catering with supermarkets on your doorstep and a pizza place beneath. Wonderful Indian restaurant/takeaway opposite and numerous Greek restaurants close by. Acropoli Metro only minutes away and entrance to the Acropolis next to this.
We liked everything.

Wonderful large apartment. Fantastic location with all the sights on your doorstep and a few minutes walk to metro. Some really nice and very affordable restaurants and take aways close by along with a supermarket. Stunning view of the Acropolis and Pantheon from the large balcony. Air con if you need it. Very comfortable sofas for relaxing in along with really comfortable beds.
Nothing we loved everything about it.

Loved the location, the view, and size of apartment
The bath/shower needs updating

Views amazing, lovely big space in a fantastic location. Communication excellent
Bathroom needs updating as the shower is not very powerful at all
4.3
Good location.
Too small, no shower curtain in the bathroom which leads to a huge watery mess. Water temperature really hard to control. There are three apartments and each apartment is different but the advertisements don’t differentiate, we got an inferior apartment compared to the photos online.
4.3
Spacious apartment, nice views from the generous balcony. Plenty of kitchen equipment and white goods. Plenty of storage space and seating.
Good supply of hot water. A welcome pack including a bottle of wine.
2 small supermarkets nearby.
The doorless lifts which were very small.
The bathroom needs some renovation including either a power or a pumped shower, very difficult to wash long hair.
Can be noisy at times as situated on a main, busy road.
4.3
The apartment are perfectly located near all of the main attractions of the city. Access to the apartment is very straightforward, and is incredibly safe & secure. I would thoroughly recommend these apartments to anyone!

Brilliant location, safe neighbourhood, easy supermarket shopping, clean and spacious.Wonderful views.
Because of the very busy main road it was a little noisy but location and view more than made up for that.

Excelent location
4.3
Great location. Spacious and everything we could possibly need was provided in the apartment. It was spotlessly clean and the welcome pact with wine was a lovely touch.
The property is dated - particularly the bathroom, but this is reflected in the price. There was an extra duvet for the bed at night - but the two duvets were thin and even with both, it was a little cold in the night.
4.3
The location was amazing, it was super easy to get in. The apartment is spacious and clean.
Everything was great, just minor inconveniences. The pressure in the shower was a bit low.

The apartment is huge and the views exceptional. The furniture is a little tired, but the place was spotlessly clean and the facilities were great. The wifi worked very well and the bedrooms were warm. Fantastic location, just 5 minutes walk from Acropoli metro station. We really appreciated the plentiful hot water which meant lovely hot baths to warm up from the cold weather. The hosts gave very clear instructions about access and it was reassuring to have them available in case of any problems.
It was very cold when we were in Athens and the main sitting room struggled to get warm as the air-conditioning unit in the main room did not produce much heat. Thankfully, the bedroom aircon units both worked really well, so at least the bedrooms were warm and comfortable, but the sitting room was pretty cool throughout our stay and we needed extra layers of clothing. I would say the aircon unit needs to be replaced and updated. The heaters in the kitchen and the bathroom did not work at all.

location was great. Walking distance to everywhere, the metro station is only 100 meters away, I can stay here even just to watch the Acropolis to the fullest.I have to be honest, everything was great, thank you.
