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!

We were thrilled with this accomodation. From booking to check put, everything was perfect. Our host Tina was easy to communicate with, and had many suggestions on what to do and where to find the best of Greek dining. The Acropolis is in full view from the rear window and the balcony faces the Temple of Zeus. It is in the prime location for walking to all of the prime spots in Athens. It was THE best spot to begin pur Greek vacation. Thank you Tina, (and Deborah).

What a great place to spend a week in Athens. Views, central location, comfort, amenities, great host-this place has everything we wanted. Views of the acropolis from the kitchen and Hadrian’s Arch from the living and dining with the arch across the street as well as the Zeus’s temple, and the National Gardens plus the Acropolis just blocks away. Sitting on the sofa we could see the arch, remains of Zeus’s Temple, and the Acropolis. Great restaurants and shops in the neighborhood and felt very safe. Yes there are tourists and tourist shops but the shops are nice and don’t take away from the charming old neighborhood with beautiful homes and this is the way in any major city with some of the worlds best sites to see. It is updated beautifully, well done and very contemporary (but not cold modern) so spacious and very comfortable beds, great closet space, well appointed kitchen, and super clean. The host was always super responsive and helpful including when our morning ferry was cancelled the morning we were to check out.The street it is on, facing Hadrian’s Arch, is a curved busy thoroughfare but didn’t bother us at all. We enjoyed watching the Athenians commuting and tourists walking around, and it just added to the energy and enthusiasm of being in Athens. There was very little honking or “noise”, and was more just hum. This apartment is contemporary, spacious, well appointed, comfortable, very well located, and with a great host. We will stay here again.

The people that she partnered with for these services were amazing. Lastly, she was very responsive before and during out stay. Excellent experience from the host, and an amazing location close to food, shopping, and traditional sight seeing excursions. Would highly recommend.

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!

Location, views, amenities, communication! We enjoyed a lovely stay at this property. The apartment is located in the heart of Athens and is walking distance to major cultural experiences and restaurants. You will be right in the Plaka which has wonderful energy to walk around, shop, and dine. The views are phenomenal on both sides of the apartment. The apartment is spacious, spotless, modern, and well appointed with all of the necessary kitchen supplies, all designed to facilitate an enjoyable stay. And I cannot say enough positive things about the gracious host. She is communicative, both proactive and responsive. She will help you make arrangements in Athens with trusted resources and will check in to ensure you have everything you need. Truly a wonderful stay and I would recommend this place to anyone looking to visit Athens.

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.

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!

In the heart of the Plaka neighborhood, this third floor apartment overlooks Hadrian’s arch/Temple of Olympian Zeus out the front and the Acropolis out the back. The place is clean and modern as shown in the pictures. The property owner, Tina, went above and beyond in several ways to help make our stay amazing. Including arranging transportation, and hooking us up with an awesome guide, Ada. Ada gave us a comprehensive walking tour of parts of Plaka as well as the Acropolis and Acropolis Museum. Definitely 5 out of 5
