We really enjoyed our stay in Athens! The place was lovely—clean, cozy, and stocked with all the essentials—and the hosts were incredibly kind and responsive. They even removed a diffuser at my request due to scent sensitivity, which was so thoughtful and appreciated. Just a heads-up for light sleepers: one of the bedrooms faces a street and the other backs up to a parking lot, so some street noise is to be expected. A white noise machine or earplugs might help if you’re sensitive. I also felt a bit uneasy in the evenings, but the host was quick to respond and mentioned plans to install a security camera, which should help future guests feel more at ease. Overall, it was a great stay with attentive hosts and a comfortable space!
