Having never been to Athens I was not clear from my research where this apartment was located and whether it was going to be a convenient location for our visit - it was!
First, the views from the apartment are absolutely amazing. Directly across the street from the Temple of Zeus and the pictures you see in the listing of the Acropolis are not doctored. That is the view from the one balcony.
The unit itself is located in a very quiet building, even though it is on a main street directly next to a busy pedestrian walkway. The Greeks are not big users of the car horn (thankfully) so even though you would pick-up some noise from traffic, it was very minimally disruptive.
The unit was very comfortable, clean and functional. The furnishings are modern and very functional. We loved this apartment.
In addition to having a private view of the major sites from the unit, it is very conveniently located to the National Garden, the Acropolis Museum and Plaka. We walked everywhere and never felt unsafe and generally found the city to be quite clean. There are several subway stations within walking distance as well as a multitude of available cabs. There is also a very small grocery store within a five minute walk that was perfect for meeting our basic needs during our visit.
Also, the property agent was excellent with his communication and kindly arranged transit for us from the airport and to the ferry for our departure. We never met in person, but I found him to be extremely responsive to my queries and very helpful.
Overall, we really enjoyed this property and thought it was an excellent location. We highly recommend this unit for your next visit to Athens.
