Many have none.The apartment is beautiful as described. Rooms were large, even bathroom & shower.Excellent location close to Parthenon & Uber to Plaka only 5 Euros if you don't want to walk.Nice safe neighborhood reasturants very close. Not over crowded.I will give less than 4.5 stars for ( I'm being picky)A wriitten sheet laminated with FAQ as not to repeat to each renter & ease stay. But owner very responsive. Also use Uber & Get Your Guide Apps for transport & tours.Heater/AC in living room only Broke. Due Christmas could not be repaired. Owner was quick to try & replace. A provided space heater worked fine . Cannot be helped but a small price reduction would have been nice.Freezer was over Frosted & not usable. Refrigerator fine.Lacked microwave, toaster & tea kettle leaked but was usable.Need more silverware & cups.Has nice washer but in Greek so use Google Translator & supplies under bathroom sink No dryer- didn't expect use dryer rack.No safe take passports & any valuables w/ you.Suggest Tough up paint, FAQ Sheet. Better sitting Area outside on Patio, a safe bolted to floor microwave, toaster, fix freezer, get microwave & toaster.Most 4.5 stars R to help others & owner.US renters U R are not in US stop acting petty in comments or stay at overpriced 1 room hotel.

Perfect Location
This was the perfect location. There are great restaurants, grocery store and a liquor store right around the corner. Easy walk to the Metro Stations and the Acropolis. They arranged for a pickup at the airport for us and the driver took us up to the apartment which made check in very easy. We were happy to get a load of laundry done before we left for our cruise. The place is clean and the bed is comfortable. I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

Great Design Apartment September 2024
The apartment was in a very convenient location, with many restaurants just around the corner, as well as the Acropolis Museum, and other local attractions. The owner was very helpful and open to communication about the apartment, places to eat, etc. She also arranged transportation to and from the airport with a very friendly and knowledgeable driver. The apartment was large and well stocked, but there were a few concerns that prevented this from being a 5-star review: The unit was not as clean as the photos showed, especially the kitchen; there was some mold on the ceiling of the bathroom; the freezer was completely iced over and not usable; the back deck was filled with cleaning items and drying laundry and was therefore not usable either. ALSO: The elevator to and from the unit was very outdated and had a maximum capacity of 1 person, so moving heavy baggage was a challenge and we took the stairs up all 4 floors most of the time. All being said it was still a great value.

Perfect location with plenty of space
This VRBO was in an excellent location, just a short walk to the Acropolis and to the Plaka neighborhood, which is filled with shops and restaurants. The transfer driver was excellent, bringing us exactly to the property and explaining the check-in process. The space was modern, clean, and very spacious. We really enjoyed staying here and felt like it was great value just given the close proximity to where we wanted to be in Athens. Would definitely stay again in the future!

Wonderful stay
We had a great time at the apartment! It was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The location is absolutely amazing, with everything in walking distance. We had an issue with water leaking from the bedroom AC, but the other AC was strong enough that it kept us very cool during our stay. The host was communicative and helped us arrange a taxi to and from the airport. Definitely recommend!

Amazing! Definitely recommend!
This was mine and my boyfriend’s first time using vrbo and we have had a really pleasant experience overall. Our stay at this apartment was incredible, really couldn’t recommend it more!. The host was very helpful and friendly on our arrival and throughout our stay. We thought the location was perfect as it is round the corner from acropolis, loads of bars and restaurants nearby. There was also an easy accessible metro station if you want to adventure out. The apartment itself was very safe and secure. Bigger than we expected! Which was a lovely surprise. Very clean and tidy. The balcony was a sun trap, which we loved. The road noise is slightly loud when the doors are open but totally fine when the doors are shut. The only issue I think other people would complain about is that the apartment is on the 4th floor and after a long day of walking the stairs tire you out. There is a lift that I used a couple of times but it’s not for people who feel claustrophobic as it is very small.

Great location
We had an excellent stay at Efi's property! Everything that was shown in ad is precisely what you get. The condo is on the 4th floor, directly above a restaurant block and mins walk from Acropolis Museum. The Acropolis entrance is 5 mins further. Its also one block away from the Hop On Hop Off bus stop. The only downside is the elevator (not in Efi's control). It always goes up no problem but it doesnt always come and get you on the 4th floor. Just a warning for anyone who has a hard time with stairs. 100% recommend this condo.

Great location but be vigilant!
This unit is located on the 4th floor with a lift and it is walking distance to everything. Thankful for the manager Efi for taking my phone call a little bit after 12 am because my hubby’s passport, laptop, cash etc. were stolen from the unit due to break-in. It is suspected that thieves made their way in from the patio by going through the roof and down to the unit. Unfortunately no cameras are installed in front of the patio nor the front door. Efi suggested that we go to the embassy to obtain a new passport and offered to call the taxi driver who checked us in the unit to give us a ride in the morning. As this was our first visit in Athens, it was great that Efi arranged our airport pick up through a cab driver for €50 who also checked us in the unit. The driver helped us with our luggage and gave us instructions how to turn on the hot water, open/lock the building entry door, front door of the unit as well as the patio door with a metal security/blinds from the outside that goes up and down if the patio door is to be opened/closed. The taxi driver also asked us what day we were leaving and offered to drop us to the cruise port for €25 which we agreed to do. Unfortunately, the taxi driver wasn’t available to take us to the cruise port so we didn’t get to see him and thank him in person. Overall, despite of our traumatic experience, just be vigilant. Athens is beautiful! This unit is close proximity to everything.

Not what was expected
Normally I don’t provide reviews but I feel compelled to share our experience so that others aren’t fooled by the five star and 10/10 reviews/. The good is the location. A short walk to the Acropolis and close to numerous restaurants. End of the good. The bad is that the photos don’t represent the property. It’s tired. Chipped walls, kitchen walls splattered with stains, dust everywhere. The shower bar in the shower was held up with some scotch tape wrapped around a paper towel, there is mold along the back of the counter top in the bathroom and the robe hook is falling off the wall. We actually found hairs between the bed sheets. It got worse. We were picked up by the host driver at the airport and subjected to a wild ride from there to the property, often crossing multiple lanes when cornering. When we arrived the driver showed us around and when we opened the patio door on the front balcony we could not get it to close. We decided because all of the windows have electric shutters we would leave it. A big mistake. Two nights later we went out for dinner to a local restaurant. When we returned we opened the door to find all of our belongings strewn across the apartment. We had been robbed!Remember we are on the fourth floor. I give credit to the host for quickly attending the property but in the end her maintenance man determined the shutters had been compromised and were not a deterrent. She gave us a partial refund but avoid this property. We left early for our safety.

Die Wohnung war sauber, gut ausgestattet und war wie beschrieben. Der Kontakt mit der Vermieterin war sehr freundlich und alle absprachen wurden eingehalten. Die Lage der Wohnung ist phänomenal!!! 2 min und man ist mitten im Leben. Akropolismuseum und Akropolis sind quasi Nachbarn und wenn man sich ein wenig Richtung Norden bewegt, erlebt man das „normale“ Athen. Es war echt toll!!!

About the host

Host profile image
Hello I'm Efi, I am an architect and a mum of three girls.
I invite you to stay in my apartment in a great location of Athens, the city I grew up in, that I designed and constructed myself using the best materials in the market and a lot of joy.

Why they chose this property

The apartment is located in one of the most important historical areas in the country, the Acropolis area, famous in the whole world as the symbol of ancient Greek civilization and I knew I was buying a piece of it when I chose it.
I've been visiting, admiring and having fun in this area since I was a child, that's why I designed and looked after my property with a lot of joy and love.

What makes this property unique

The apartment is new!
The renovation was completed in 2012.
I am an architect so when I bought it I knew I would demolish it and build my own design from the beginning. So not only the design is new but also the electrical, plumbing that all is hidden under what you see.
So what I have is a brand new beautiful apartment around the corner from the Acropolis.
