The apartment is spacious, clean and in a fantastic location! Restaurants and shops within a minute and you can to the Acropolis in less than 15 minutes. Two story walk up to the apartment door (no elevator) and a spiral staircase to the rooftop terrace could be difficult for those with mobility issues. Excellent place to stay!
