My apartment is located at the foot of Acropolis Hill, walking distance to all ancient sights, parks, art and culture, great views, restaurants and dining spots. You’ll love the place because of the neighbourhood, the coziness, the comfy bed, and the kitchen.
We have an amazing rooftop veranda for your use, as you can see in the pictures, with spectacular views of the city and Acropolis.

The space
This is a happy space on the second floor in the popular neighbourhood of Thisseo. Well equipped with all you might need, airy for fresh air and, of course, the best location in Athens. You are literarily at the foot of the Acropolis.

Guest access
Full access to the whole house.

Other things to note
No elevator in my building. It is important for my communication & relationship with the permanent neighbors to respect common quiet hours. Both- when being in the happy place a n d when using common spaces.

Lives in Athens, Greece
My name is Eftihia (Eftehea), from the words 'ef' and 'tihi' (tehe) which mean 'good' and 'luck' in ancient greek. My name is also a noun. In modern greek the word eftihia means happiness. For ancient greeks happy was the fortunate one. Nowdays happy is the joyful one. My name is quite a heavy thing to go by everyday, as it means something so great and simple (but veeeery complicated too..), that it is sometimes a real struggle to deliver its meaning and idea and project in in your life. And other's lives around you. My parents origins are from the Peloponese and Zakynthos (Ionian Island). But I grew up in the wider terretory of Attica Prefecture, in particular in 2 suberbs of Athens- Marousi and Kifisia. My profession is acting and as that started as a career (B.C. - before Crisis!!!) but has practically ended up a practical hobby (A.C.- after Crisis..), I am trying to reinvent myself and my life and scetch a 'plan B'.. Whatever that will occur to be, my true passion is walking barefoot on sharp rocks of isolated greek islands. If I was from India I think they would say I used to be a wild goat in a previous life. My technique in this strange extreme sport is really something to admire. I love walking in general, I like nature and even though I am definately a child of the city, my soul meets its 'core' when away from it. It is like the purity of my existence absolutely relates to the inviroment I find myself in. The landscape of a mountain or a beach or a lake or a river automatically turns me into a better person. My effort has always been to manage to carry that person with me even in the packed and trafficy Streets and Avenues of Athens. My favourite time of the day in the area I leave in (where my house that welcomes airbnb guests is located) is between 2-6 in the morning. When the city sleeps one is able to 'pick up' and fully absorb this area's true energy. When crowded it is just another touristic place with great historical interest. But its healing effect one can only get when it is q u i t e and p e a c e f u l.. At times of grief, pressure or distress I found that walking (AND jogging too!) around in that neighbourhood at these hours of the day was very therapeutic. Sharing your house with people you don't know (and- at circummstances- you might actually never even meet!!!) became possible thanks to this whole airbnb notion that you created. It is a beautiful chain that connects people who wanted more- out of traveling- than a regular hotel or rudimantary furnished/equipped apartments. That chain allows travellers to make a 'subtour' in their tour, experience how a person from a different country and culture lives. Like a quick whimsy eavesdropping or innocent peeping that might 'salt or sweeten up' the first and last moments of ones journey to a foreign place. So.. Long live the AirBnB!
