Perfect Apartment
This was my fourth solo trip to Europe (from the US) and my fourth apartment rental. All apartments have been good, but this has been the best. The location (Thission) is great; it's right on the edge of lively areas, but the neighborhood itself is quiet. And it's close to a metro stop.The apartment was well equipped; nothing was lacking. The bathroom was nice, as was the kitchen ... the whole apartment was nice and very comfortable.The host accommodated my flight changes, arranged a ride to the airport, was easy to communicate with, and very responsive. I had a great time in Athens, thanks, in part, to this great "home base". Thank you!

This apartment felt like home away from home. Very modern, clean, has everything that you need. And the location! We walked to everywhere! George is the host that you wish you had - easy to contact, minor issues were dealt with right away. Early check in was very much appreciated since our cruise ship was docked @ 6 am. George also helped us book our ride to the airport. Will come back ! A 10/10!

This is a cute apartment that is just the right size for a family with 2 kids. It is located within an easy walk of many great attractions - the Acropolis, Monastiraki Square, the Plaka neighborhood, Syntagma Square, and more. The host and his wife are very gracious and kind.

Great apartment, perfect location
This apartment was a real find. We stayed with our teens for 4 days and it was perfect. The location is great - lots of restaurants, a supermarket and a bakery within 5 minutes and the Acropolis is just 15 minutes walk away. The apartment itself is spotless and had everything you need for a family of four. George met us on arrival and could not have been more helpful. Highly recommended! The assortment itself was spotless

FABULOUS LOCATION
This listing was exactly as it was described by the owner. A 10 minute walk to the Acropolis, food and beverages within 5 minutes. Owner was very responsive and allowed us to check-in early. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Phaedra apartment in Thission, and would definitely return. We highly recommend this apartment.

This (sio) is a great place to stay
Fabulous location in the heart of Thissio, a few steps from eateries, bars, a metro station and possibly the best Acropolis view in Athens. The flat is clean, quiet, well-equipped and well air-conditioned and was a brilliant base for all our sightseeing. George is a really helpful host and met us on arrival.

We enjoyed every minute of our stay in this wonderful city. Our departure was rushed however because the taxi for the airport arrived but our host was late.
