Great location
The location of this property is ideal. It is walking distance to many restaurants, Acropolis, Plaka, and many other points of interest. Honestly - it was the perfect location. It has 2 bedrooms, and only 1 (small) bathroom. Our biggest issue arose unexpectedly. The host only gave us one key … which would not be a big issue … BUT the keys have a card attached to it that you have to insert into a slot when you come in to the apartment. This is the only way to get electricity to the apartment. So when you leave, you take the card out and no longer have power in the unit. This means that if you are doing laundry, you are stuck in the unit. The moment you leave, the laundry turns off. This also means that if someone wants to take a nap in the unit, they either have to do it without electricity (so no a/c), or they keep the keys in the unit. We constantly had problems trying to logistically figure out how to manage around this. My husband wanted to stay at the apartment to take a nap because he wasn’t feeling well - so he stayed in the apartment with the keys. We got stuck outside for a while, ringing the bell constantly, to wake him up, because he had to buzz us in (since we didn’t have the keys). It was logistically very frustrating and challenging for us. The host claims they have never had an issue with this - I find that very hard to believe. Also, keep in mind - there is no microwave.
