    Value for money: 5 out of 5 stars. Not only is the apartment well furnished, specious and well located, Success has made every effort to lift the experience of the stay. Some examples are the espresso machine, two air conditioners in lounge and in the bedroom (I stayed in summer and it made a huge difference), putting chilled water in fridge for my arrival, washing machine and detergent bought for use, and welcoming me after my flight was delayed. Highly, highly recommend staying here.

    Fantastic, luxurious Penthouse with amazing views and superb amenities. We loved the sunset views! Very clean and comfortable. The location was very convenient- many restaurants and markets nearby and Malls within a few minutes drive. We rented a car so the private indoor parking was a significant advantage. We found the price better than other five star options, as it offers a much larger space, unequalled views of Athens, and complete privacy.
