Home truths
Parking in Athens can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible – though we think the best way to see the city is on foot
At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area – this will be at the expense of lounge space, however, so we think this home is better suited to two guests

Housekeeping is included here
