Be careful, there are BED BUGS and COCKROACHES, and nobody is talking about it. I had to evacuate the accommodation at 4 a.m. I don't recommend it and don't understand how this listing is still online. For hot water, it doesn't tell us, but you have to activate it on a meter. Thank you to Airbnb for taking care of everything

A flawless apartment, just like Harry. Unfortunately, the apartment is located in a rough neighbourhood. The host has nothing to do with it, but the area is not safe.

The host and his partners were really helpful! They fulfilled my requests and the apartment was clean and beautiful; authentic Greek housing! The neighbourhood is diverse in my opinion, and the location is great for the metro, food, and local stores! The bed was so comfy and having wine at the balcony with the breeze was definitely a highlight! Highly recommended!

The apartment is cozy and Hanni was very nice when we checked in. We did have a bad experience as the apartment was broken into. Harry and his company apologized to us and gave us a full refund for the rent and the stolen items.

This apartment is an absolutely gorgeous and cosy example of a classic Athens apartment! Full of character, even nicer than the photos suggest. We loved it. It is not the place for those wanting something super modern and squeaky clean (ie ‘classic air bnb type’ places). But we didn’t want that at all anyway. The area is much the same, very walkable to the center and very local-authentic places with a lovely local square , with cafes and restaurants. However, some who are more squeamish about cleanliness or posh shops/restaurants may not love it as much. The hosting stood out as being extremely personable and responsive. We were even met at our Airbnb by a real (and kind) human not a key box! Thanks to Harry and Panos and team.

The apartment is really great and I felt totally at home. Comfortable, well equipped, clean and nicely decorated. Regarding some reviews that the neighbourhood is sketchy: as a woman staying there alone, I didn‘t have any negative experiences. The immediate surroundings of the apartment seemed safe, it‘s just not a very touristy or gentrified area. The closer you get to Omonia or Metaxourgeio, the sketchier it gets though - I wouldnt go there at night. Walking towards Exarchia seemed fine. I tried staying on the main streets and didn‘t have any problems.

We definitely recommend staying at Harry‘s! The communication was very friendly and helpful. We had to book spontaneously and everything went well albeit it was last minute. The apartment is perfect for two persons. Nice and clean bathroom, and kitchen with accessories, we slept well and didn’t miss anything. We really appreciate the kind messages as well as the check in and the recommendations for exploring Athens. Sidenote: pack earplugs, in case you are sensitive to a dog/cat from neighbors upstairs walking around at night ;)

Tidy, in order accommodation, Mr Petros was very forthcoming. All requisite were available. It was spacious though I was alone. It was comfortable and it is recommended for solo and couples. Surroundings had many restaurants, small shops, all amenities were available in 100 meters around and Metro was just near by. Although surrounding was dark all the time though it was safe. One Recommendation is to fix the light as corridor in front of apartment has no serviceable light, so while entering in evening is impossible due pitch dark, I had to switch mobile phone light all the time while entering through corridor,.

I felt home, quiet neighbour in the center, near everything. Bus, metro, laundry, groceries, shops, museums. Friendly easy check in, very quick response and very helpful when I need something so many thanks to Harry and Petros. Definitely I will come back again. My favourite in Athens!

Harry and his team are perfect, the apartment was great too. Nevertheless, the location is not great in the sense that there are many unsavory men on the streets. The neighborhood is to be avoided at night. We still retain their warm welcome, we had a nice stay there!

The place is ok for the money you pay, and it has a nice bathroom but it could do with a small renovation.

The person that opened the door and welcomed us (Dimitris) was very professional and friendly. Was responsive to my messages and patient with me being delayed to our meeting. The apartment would ideally need a renovation or better maintenance from the owner.

The apartment is very nice and corresponds to the pictures as well as the description. We felt comfortable in the area and were able to reach everything on foot. We were able to clarify a few inconveniences regarding cleanliness with Harry, which was very easy to reach and helpful. Great value. Thank you, happy to come back! :)

Thoughtful hosts who don't take care of the home or guests. They didn't tell us it was a dangerous neighborhood until it was too late, and they only did it because upon arrival we found a car and a motorcycle caught in front of the gate, besides certain transeuses. The house was made for a pigeon. There were ants mogollon and cockroaches everywhere, which I find unacceptable. We also encounter a coffee maker full of mojo (which had coffee for at least two weeks inside) and other utensils in poor condition. In addition to that, we found ourselves in lack of many services: they only left us two rolls of paper (for 4 people for 4 nights), a washing machine that could not be used due to lack of products and a long etc. of unusable items due to lack of care

The apartment was very nice, bright and clean. Harry was responsive and the person who met us at check in was very nice. I would recommend it to people in a group or couples, but not to solo female travelers. I am used to being in areas that are considered not “good” and have been in/lived in a lot of big cities, but this area was a lot worse than I was expecting. During the day or if you are with a man it isn’t bad, but unfortunately at night it is quite sketchy. There are many men around who are not used to being around women and don’t know how to act, unfortunately 5 minutes alone at night in front of the building I had a very bad encounter with a man. It isn’t the fault of the host of course but I could not recommend it to single women, there are too many men in the area who don’t know how to interact with women.

Perfect place for those who want to travel modestly. We felt good there. Located in a popular area, very nice when you want to find low prices (snacks at 1.80, fresh juice at 0.80 cts, shop in markets cheaper than in the city center), the accommodation is comfortable, a double bed, a mezzanine bed and a sofa bed. Two stations from the city center (Victoria subway) or 30 minutes on foot. We've never felt unsafe, but it's true that for those who don't like popular backgrounds I don't recommend it. Small inconveniences: the air conditioning in the bedroom does not cool down the kitchen and the other bedroom but there are fans, there is no kitchen table to eat (we used the desk as a table) and little equipment for cooking.

Overall, our stay at Harry’s Airbnb was pleasant, comfortable and nice. The location wasn’t too far from the centre either and was located in a centralized area. The only problem I encountered was a broken toilet seat and a broken sliding door in the shower booth. Also, the shower head was fixed a little too high and was unadjustable. So my kids and I had a hard time showering. Although overall, Harry was a very responsible and accommodating host.

We stayed in the apartment with our family. A very cosy apartment, very clean, and it has absolutely everything you need for cooking, which was a huge plus. Thank you for the excellent service and comfortable stay!

The apartment had a good amount of space for the price with a good washing machine and good air conditioning. The area wasn't the best being a bit far away from restaurants and the main Athens monuments. It was also a bit sketchy to walk to at night.

The flat is lovely and the extremely friendly hosts really add to the experience. They let you know which areas to go to for which things and how to get there. The only worry would be the area, as, at night and even as a group, we felt quite unsafe. It was a bit further out from things but not too difficult to get to places. Inside everything was as described and a definite plus was the pretty view from the multiple balconies. The kitchen came stocked with a few things and so did the bathroom. There is plenty of space for multiple people.

Overall, the stay was alright. The apartment is as per what the listing had stated. However two things to share. Firstly, when we first checked in, the apartment was not cleaned. The cleaners came at 1.30am when we were already asleep to clean, and we sent them away and they came back at 9.30am the next day to clean. When we surfaced this issue to the host, they only responded with an apology 3 days later. Furthermore, the host was unwilling to refund the cleaning fee initially, but was compelled to do so after Airbnb was involved based on the evidence we had submitted. While the cleaning issue was solved, the manner in which this was handled had unfortunately made the experience a negative one. Secondly, the price of this apartment is very affordable and for the size it was quite worth it. However, the street where the apartment is located is known for vices in Athens. Something to take into consideration for guests who do not know much about the social geography of Athens.

Really nice place, lots of space and comfortable bed. The host was incredibly responsive and easy to deal with. The area was slightly isolated from the heart of Athens but overall was okay and we saw some interesting things via walking to the centre. The taxi pickup service from the airport was really convenient and well priced and allowed us to checkin late which I was amazing.
