9 members of an extended family stayed here for several days and all of us were comfortable. We had one couple in the penthouse upstairs, one couple in the master bedroom, one couple and two singles in the large bedroom, and one single on a murphy-bed mattress from the master, set up along one wall of the dining area. The reason for that is that adults using the single murphy beds in the master BR and upstairs BR feel like they're too close to those in the larger beds (not so in the queen BR). That would not be an issue if parents had the large bed and their child the single, or if several children or same-sex teenagers shared the room. The main thing is that this place really can sleep a bunch of people on real beds, without even using the sleeper couch in the living room. Bedding and pillows were plentiful and good.

Everything here is of very nice quality, very clean and well-kept. We did little cooking but used the kitchen for breakfasts and snacks. Some were left for us, which we appreciated, as well as the tips on places to eat in the area. There's a great collection of guidebooks, which were extremely helpful.

Bathrooms are great and there's plenty of closet space. More hangers would be useful. The only thing that didn't work well was the laundry (both washer and dryer) -- I'm accustomed to low-water front-loaders but the spin cycle on this one was just not working and the dryer didn't seem to do much. Nadia said she'd recently had it serviced and I have no doubt she'll follow up on this promptly. She kindly did a load of laundry for us!

Nadia, the agent we dealt with in Athens, was responsive, pleasant, and efficient. When the company providing internet service went out of business, she was on the spot ASAP with a new router from another company. Previous dealings with the owner, Carole, also went smoothly (she's very knowledgeable and gave me great advice on other parts of our Greek vacation) and her husband even helped out on a long-distance call when we had a misunderstanding about key pick-up. We used Carole's driver for two pick-ups from the airport and one from Piraeus (30e, 50e for the late-night airport pick-up) and he was consistently reliable.

The location is on a busy street, very near shops, a taxi stand and walkable from the historic center for good walkers. We did not use public transportation from the apartment so I'm unsure how convenient that is. There is road noise when you're out on the balcony or roof terrace, but it's to be expected in the middle of a busy city. Heavy sliding doors keep the apartments quiet at night. Be sure to close the outside sliding shutters to keep out the sun if you want to sleep in, because the apartments are very bright! If you rent Alpha Plus or the penthouse alone, the roof terrace is a lovely place to dine or relax in the evening, with lots of potted plants and a spotlighted Acropolis in the distance. We did not use the BBQ or have our family party up there -- we found it much easier and cheaper to entertain at a nearby taverna.

This pair of apartments (Alpha plus the penthouse) gave our extended family group a comfy place to gather and relax in between family events and tourist explorations. The adjoining apartment, Beta, sleeps several more, so you could accommodate a pretty big family or group here with comfort.
