Location is excellent. Apartment is super clean and very comfortable, it has everything you need And good communication with the owner who arranged for a taxi on our arrival and departure with a courteous driver. There are two bedrooms and two baths a kitchen dining area and living room as well as a balcony. Just need a microwave and to heat the apartment before the client arrives otherwise it was perfect
Awesome experience. View is exactly as shown in the pics, you can sit on the outside patio and drink coffee with the arch right there, just amazing. Walkable to everything we wanted to see and tons of great restaurants. Perfect.
The apartment is in a great location, close to historical attractions and food. Tina was a great host and very attentive to all of our needs. Would recommend this location to anyone visiting Athens!
Fantastic property in great location! The apartment was beautiful, very clean, had great views, & great amenities. The host responded very quickly, was super helpful, & helped make our stay in Athens very easy and lovely. Would definitely rent this apartment again.
I can't recommend this property enough....it is exactly as pictured, with the view from the balcony being Hadrian's Gate - built in 131 AD. The apartment has been completely remodeled, and all systems and appliances worked perfectly - the furnishings were very modern and comfortable. The location is excellent - in the Plaka district of Athens and close-by to (easy walking distance) to restaurants/shopping and the Acropolis. The host, Tina, was also extremely helpful with recommendations, both for our transfers from ATH as well as a very knowledgeable guide for our tour of the Acropolis. Again - highly recommend this property and host!
This was a perfect location for two nights in Athens. Never needed a taxi except to Airport. Walked to everything. What made this an ideal experience was the Host Tina. She arranged drivers for us and helped me get the correct tickets to the Acropolis. She also got us an exceptional guide. The guide was so good and tailored it to our interests. Thanks to Tina for making this a great trip!
Loved this property Beautifully decorated, clean. Great views of the temple of Zeus and Acropolis minutes from Plaka. Host also connected us with tour Gudes for acropolis and forSouniio both of which were amazing Great value Great apartment Great host
We absolutely loved our stay at this VRBO in Athens! The location was unbeatable, right in the heart of downtown with everything within easy walking distance—restaurants, shops, cafes, and all the sights. The views of the Acropolis from the apartment were outstanding, truly amazing, and we never got tired of sitting with coffee in the morning or wine in the evening while looking out at it. The vibe of the area was fabulous, full of energy but still felt safe and welcoming. It made exploring Athens so easy and enjoyable. Highly recommend if you want to experience the best of the city!

An absolutely amazing stay. Fantastic location. Walking distance to all major city centre sites and attractions, great restaurants, and shopping. Impeccably clean. Very comfortable apartment. The views from the apartment were incredible. Host goes above and beyond anything I've experienced with a vacation rental to ensure a great vacation. The only reason I am not giving a 5/5 overall rating is because there are some relatively minor maintenence items that could be addressed, but those items did not detract from having a wonderful time.
This was a great first time place to stay. Everything within walking distance, great views, wonderful host. Highly recommend for anyone making a first visit.
The property is well situated in the downtown. Perfectly located for all explores.
The posting is accurate and the host is very accommodating and helped areanged tours!
We loved our stay!!!
We stayed here for our 2 nights in Athens and you can’t beat the location. All the hotspots were close enough to walk and lots of nice restaurants and shops close by. The unit was clean, spacious and perfect for 3 adults. Highly recommend!
Our stay was wonderful. Check-in was very easy and the apartment was clean. The location is in Plaka and is super convenient. The views were outstanding. I highly recommend. We had plenty of space for our family of four.
We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful apartment. The home was clean and beautifully decorated. The views were amazing and the home is close to restaurants and sights! Tina was a wonderful host! Thank you for sharing your home with us.
The apartment was perfect, and exactly as described. The location is unbeatable, and Tina was extremely professional and responsive. I highly recommend.
We found the property to be in an ideal location to walk to great sightseeing, dining, and shopping. The host’s communication was very prompt and also proactive with any tips on things we might like to see and help transportation options. Property was clean and very comfortable.
Tina's apartment was perfect for my wife, myself, and two adult granddaughters and I would highly recommend it for three reasons. First, the location is fantastic. Within walking distance of all the major sites, restaurants, and activities. Also being directly across from Hadrian's Arch, you'll never get lost returning to it. Second, the apartment is well furnished, comfortable, and large enough that we never felt crowded.Finally, Tina was a wonderful host. Communication was easy and she was always prompt in returning any messages that I had left for her. If we return to Athens we will definitely be staying at this apartment.
We arrived 3:00am in the eve and key was in great loaction and entry was perfect....and after traveling 12+ hours from Boston we were pleased that entry to the apartment was so easy...Great location as you can walk to many sites-good restaurants and so on. We hired a guide on one day and walked the area / central athens-plaka-acropolis area in 6 hours...Thank you we enjoyed.

The host was wonderful and very responsive to our requests and needs. The property is in a nice location and walkable to everything. The view from the apartment is priceless. Only downside is noise from street from one of the bedrooms. I would definitely stay here again.
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Athens. The apartment is very well maintained & conveniently located. Tina graciously accommodated our early arrival and late check out. As well she arranged for drivers to pick us up from the airport and take us to the ship for our cruise.
This place was wonderful! The apartment was beautiful. The views were amazing! Perfect location close to restaurants and shopping. Tina was an excellent host. She was attentive and very helpful. We loved our stay and would highly recommend
Thank you Tina for sharing your place and all your kindness!
Tina is a wonderful host. Her response time to questions was quick. Offered transportation options from airport and to the port. Also knew local guides for hire. All were seamless and reasonable.
