Chleo - Glamorous 2 BR Apt W Balcony in Athens

The apartment satisfied our needs as it was centrally located and spacious for the four nights we booked. Their communication before was prompt during the booking process. But unfortunately, the customer service aspect was spotty and unreliable. On check-in day, it was challenging to receive any communication from them in a timely matter. On. our last day the water was off from 12:30 to late in the evening. We communicated with the host regarding the issue and they said they would send someone to check on it but they never did. We had to look at a website to find out what the issue was and to get more information. Since it was a government water issue, the host did not want to provide any sort of accommodation assistance. We had to make a judgment call and independently find other accommodations for the evening. Which was very unfortunate and inconvenient as we had an extremely early flight out the next morning.

Was a nice place continently located near main attractions in Athens

We stayed here twice April 10-18 & Apr27-29 2026. A bit tricky to find as it is off the main roads, down an alley. Location ideal to main sites, Acropolis, the museum, metro stop, Plaka = 5-10 mins walk. . Check in can be tricky - instructions to get in are sent via email with links to open up the details only a few hours before arrival. Owner should have hard copy of rules in the unit especially for check out and to advise to turn on the hot water - First morning showers were ice cold. After a full day of travel it's hard to read all the details in that email Beds comfy, but pillows could use an upgrade. HVAC works well. Shower floors are tiled/marble - extremely slippery, so the first morning we bot rubber mats - Surprised this wasn't supplied. Good kitchen; did not use the oven but looked in good shape. 2 burner stove top, mike and pannini press was mostly used. No toaster but the press worked fine. Watch the fridge door and you need to ensure you push it all the way closed. Kettle and Nespresso machine was a nice touch. There is a small store out and to the right of the building as well as a bigger supermarket a block from that one. Balcony small - didn't use as weather was a bit cool when we were there. Original ad stated a washer/dryer in the unit but the machine, only had washing features so we had to take our wet clothes to a laundromat a few blocks away. Owner said to use drying rack on balcony, but it was dirty, rusted legs and no clothes pins.

Overall was a nice place and suited us well. Communication with the host was excellent - very prompt and polite using WhatsApp. We stayed for one month so there were a couple glitches like the washer not working but they were very quick to offer reimbursement for our trips to the laundry mat. The balcony was a bit disappointing - very tiny and not much of a view. However we were out and about most of the time. Location was walkable everywhere and yet was also on a quiet street which was nice at night. Lots of restaurants, tavernas and shopping nearby.

Only one complain, the shower inside the bedroom, the water is leaking underneath. Seems like not properly caulked. Besides that, we had a good time and stay.
