This sunny apartment is in the Acropolis/Koukaki neighborhood (one of the trendiest neighborhoods in Athens) and just minutes from Acropolis, Plaka, and Filopappou Hill.
The location is ideal-it is a 3-minute walk from the Sygrou-Fix metro stop and a 10-minute walk from the Acropolis metro stop. Less than 1 minute from the house there are many tavernas, cafes, bakeries, bars and just up the street is the Open Air Bus Tour stop. You have easy access to all main tourist sites.
The space
Renovated in November 2016, this apartment features an updated bathroom, kitchen, studio and loft and appliances. Using principles from the Tiny House movement to maximize the space (the apartment is only 25 meters) , this charming studio+ loft can sleep up to 4 people.
Please note the space is small (imagine a hotel room). There are mattresses for 4, but 4 adults may feel crowded. This space is ideal for families or couples.
Kitchen: new dishwasher, microwave/oven, build in refrigerator, marble counters.
Bathroom: modern shower, toilet, sink, marble counter tops
Studio: track lighting with dimmers, double bed (sleeps 2), TV with cable
Loft: loft with new flooring, a built in window making the space bright and two twin mattresses (sleeps 2).
The apartment is near the entrance to the building (up one short flight of stairs). You may hear some traffic from the building and from the street outside.
Guest access
The entire apartment is available for guest access.
Other things to note
I'm a Kundalini Yoga teacher so I'd like to invite you to try any of my classes during your stay. You can find us at Lynnskundaliniyoga on (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN).
I've also written a book! It is called Headstart for Happiness and you can find it on Amazon. You will also find a copy of the book in the studio to read during your stay. :-)
Getting to the apartment:
From the airport, the two easiest options are a) the metro b) a taxi
Metro: The metro leaves directly across the street from the airport and costs 10 euros per person. You will take the blue line metro from the airport to Syntagma. Get off at Syntagma, change to the red line going towards “Elliniko”. Go two stops (Acropolis and Sygrou-Fix) and get off at the second stop (Sygrou-Fix). When you walk up from the metro stop, take the stairs marked “Sygrou-Drakou”. The apartment is a 3-minute walk from the Sygrou-Fix metro as follows:
1) walk up Drakou and cross Veiko
2) continue veering slightly left to stay on Drakou (at the vegetable store) to Zaharitsa.
3) The apartment is on the corner of Zaharitsa and Drakou.

Taxi
If you take a taxi, it is a flat rate from the airport (38 euros) from 5:00 am to 12:00 am and 54 euros from 12:00 am to 5:00 am. Most, but not all taxi drivers speak English. Some cab drivers charge a euro or two per bag but you can confirm this before getting into the cab. These is a taxi stand directly outside the airport. If you want us to arrange for a taxi to pick you up, just let us know. We work with several reliable taxi drivers, and there is no extra cost to have them come to the airport for you.
