  Great location

  Left on 06/06/2013 for a stay in May 2013
  
  

  This apartment is very close to St. George Lycabettus, great shopping, and restaurants. The location is wonderful, although be warned that area of athens hilly. It feels like you are always walking uphill :)
  
  The apartment itself is good for a couple who know each other well, as there is little privacy. The bathroom door is frosted glass and you can see shadows through it. There are also 2 glass panels in the bathroom looking out into the bedroom and hall. The bathroom however is large and has plenty of room for storing toiletries and getting dressed.
  
  The apartment has a washer and drying rack on the balcony which is very convenient. Overall, it's a nice apartment and is very clean. The owner is accommodating and did everything in his power to make our stay enjoyable.
