Zografou centre apartment

Cute place, no services. Don´t try to cook there

5.0

I am sad to give this bad qualification because the apartment itself is very beautiful and cute. The bed is great, the furniture is great, the location is great even though it´s a 12 minute walk to the Metro. Feels safe, relatively quiet. It´s an older building with beautiful hardwood floor, perfectly clean, minimal style. Adorable.

− I would have loved it, but it lacked the most basic equipment and service. The check-in message is not detailed, didn´t feel welcoming and was confusing. It felt like a treasure hunt to find it, get the keys and check in. We had to guess which door to open on the second floor. No further communication. I had to ask for the wifi password and was told to find it on the router. I knew about greek water heater customs, so I figured that out, but again, no instructions. The kitchen doesn´t work, the coffee maker doesn´t work. Just a microwave, no cups except tiny espresso cups (and no espresso machine). No kitchen towels. One bath towel per person. No toilet paper (seemed a glitch, I was told to buy it and would be reimbursed, but then didn´t receive more answers). Maybe this is OK for Greek business travelers, but it was disappointing for us. It would be so easy to give this cute apartment a 5* upgrade.

Nice, convenient stay in the city centre.

The location is excellent: very close to the Acropolis and the Megaron Conference Centre. I made the booking on the day of my arrival, and the host reached out right away, which I really appreciated. The self-check-in instructions were clear and thoughtfully prepared, with helpful pictures, so everything went smoothly. When I arrived, the hot water was off, but the host responded immediately with clear guidance, and it was quickly resolved. The apartment itself is a mix of old and new and could benefit from a few improvements, but it was clean, welcoming, and comfortable overall.

− It felt a bit chilly for me during my stay in April, but I tend to prefer warmer temperatures, so this might not be an issue for others.

Recommend having a map location because taxi driver's took me to wrong address twice.

Location was perfect because had a appointment at the Finnish embassy.

− All was good with the apartment. For tourists would include a letter explaining wi-fi code and how to turn on hot water. Also in english on the switch board.

Location is only ten minutes walk from Megaro Moussikis, a great area

− Shower definitely needs a curtain
