The apartment is spacious, clean and in a fantastic location! Restaurants and shops within a minute and you can to the Acropolis in less than 15 minutes. Two story walk up to the apartment door (no elevator) and a spiral staircase to the rooftop terrace could be difficult for those with mobility issues. Excellent place to stay!

The property has an amazing location. Just 10 minutes to most attractions in Athens. There are multiple grocery stores near by as well as lots of shopping. The check in was great. Joseph met us at the condo and showed us the space. The best part of the condo by far is the roof top patio. Amazing views of the Acropolis .

Great location -- convenient to the craziness of Plaka but on a quiet street. The best part about the apartment was the rooftop terrace with view of the Acropolis, sunset and across Athens. The apartment itself was comfortable and spacious. Every bedroom had its own AC unit which was nice. It's an easy walk from Monastiraki station. Lia was wonderful and met us right on time to greet us and show us the apartment. We had a small issue with the water but she was super responsive and sent someone over right away to check it for us. The apartment was a nice respite from the hustle and bustle of Athens.

An excellent property, great location and beautiful view

Our group of six family members stayed for five nights before Easter. The property was perfect for our needs. The stairs were a little difficult for my wife who had just had back surgery but she managed it okay. All in all the unit was exactly what we wanted and the arranged airport transfer/check-in was done well. We used the airport driver for a tour to Delphi that was also great.
