The apartment’s location was a short walk to the Metro subway as well as some amazing restaurants. It wasn’t located in the city center so it was more quiet and away from the hustle and bustle but close enough to the Metro for easy transportation to/from.

It was great for 7 adults. My only suggestion would be to enable the WiFi repeater so there would be WiFi in the bedrooms

The location of the apartment was in a quiet neighborhood and was walkable to a small grocery store and a few restaurants. We used Uber a lot to get around to other parts of the city and that was very convenient. The apartment does have other residents and they do not want any noise so I would definitely not bring a rowdy group or small children. The owner was very responsive and gave us a late check out to accommodate our Ferry time which we appreciated. The view was absolutely gorgeous, the pictures did not lie.

The property is beautiful, and accessible by elevator, six floors up. The view is exactly as shown in the photos and is spectacular. It is near to many attractions and services. The deck view is spectacular. The gentle breeze and pleasant temperatures in (summer) mornings and evenings, makes it great for breakfast and unwinding. Sunsets are heavenly. It was spotless and generally pleasant for food prep, dining and sleeping. One area that needs attention, however, is the hot water. There was none, which made showering quick and simple since it didn't matter which way you turned the fixture, you got the same temperature water. Given the overall quality of the experience, along with Athens' simmering temperatures, however, it was more of conversation piece for our group rather than a deal breaker.

The driver hire by the property management didn't know exactly where the property was, so there was some walking up and down the street to locate the property, during which time we were assailed by an angry neighbor who shoved a complaint into each of our hands, which clearly spelled out that we were NOT welcome, we were NOT guests, and that we should leave. The flyer also went on to malign the property owner as not belonging to the neighborhood, only some foreigner looking to make money. This cast a pall over our entire visit, some family were scared for their safety as the flyer made clear we were NOT welcome and should leave. Yannis, who was waiting for us only shrugged the flyer off, clearly he was quite familiar with this practice, and he didn't care. Yannis impatiently showed us around the house and could not get the stove to work. The master bedroom shower does not hang well in the holder, which is loose, and falls on the person taking the shower and spraying water everywhere. The chairs in the dining room effectively are on three legs, which means if one leans even slightly in either direction, the chair threatens to fall over. Seat cushions don't stay on the chairs as their straps are mostly broken, probably from previous guests falling over in the chairs. Ironically, after the angry neighbor's flyer spewing hate for foreign visitors and accusing us of bad behavior and noise, we heard loud music on Saturday night through the entire night. The AC worked.

The property description perfectly describes the unit. We had a lovely stay. The views are truly wonderous and the outside patio was a great game night spot! Beds are comfy and AC works great. The small challenges we faced was: cabs didn't like coming up to pick you up at that location (we didn't try UBER so maybe that's a better alternative), the stairwell is lit by individual floors so sometimes it got dark in there and we had a tough time figuring out how to program the dry cycle on the washing machine to dry the clothes. We would hearitly recommend the unit and would return without hesitation. Thanks for a lovely stay!
