Cosmos Skyview Residence

Honest review from an American traveler — great location, but a lot of frustrations Positive: Speaking as an American used to certain creature comforts, here’s an honest take for those with a similar mindset when traveling. The location is hands-down the best part of Cosmos Skyview Residence. You’re close to metro stations, grocery stores, cafés, and just a couple of stops from the Acropolis. The apartment is spacious, has multiple terraces, and the Wi-Fi is decent (though it drops off in the far half of the home without a repeater). But beyond that, there are some major drawbacks to be aware of as noted in the next section. Negative: Beds: The mattresses were absolutely terrible — hard and uncomfortable. After long days of walking 10–12 miles (16–19 km) plus our 3–4 mile (5–6 km) runs, quality sleep was essential. Instead, it was nearly impossible for anyone in our group to get a truly restful night. Dining setup: The only “dining table” is outdoors. During our stay, temps averaged in the high 90s°F (mid-30s°C), making it unthinkable to eat outside. For a property this size, not having an indoor dining option is simply irresponsible. Air conditioning: The AC mostly worked — two bedrooms and the living area were fine — but two other bedrooms had older units that struggled. On day one, it took 10–12 hours for one room to cool. In Athens heat, strong, reliable AC is non-negotiable. Even when running, some rooms felt muggy/damp, which may be a settings issue or just weak performance. Refrigerator: Inconsistent. At times it chilled food and drinks; other times it froze them. Space is limited, and since we like to cook, the lack of storage containers meant we had to store leftovers in pans, taking up precious room. Hot water: Easily the most frustrating issue. In 8 days, I had exactly one warm shower — never hot. The owners did come and “fix” it once, which worked for one shower, then back to cold. We followed the exact instructions every time, but hot water was random at best, like playing Russian roulette. For a property at this price point, this is unacceptable. Keys: Only one set for a group of nine is ridiculous. This meant constant coordination for comings and goings. The lockbox was unreliable, with bulky keys jamming it more than once. One night, some of us returned while others were asleep inside — we were stuck outside for 30 minutes waiting to be let in. If location is your top priority and you can overlook the above, this place could work.

Positive: Чисті, просторі апартаменти , були компанією 9 чоловік,місця всім вдосталь.Простора тераса ,де є великий стіл і приємно снідати чи повечеряти.Кондіціонер працював у всіх кімнатах вправно.Якщо двері на терасі відкриті, достатньо чутно дорогу з автівками поруч.Поряд з апартаментами також є магазин та кафе,станція метро ,2 зупинки і ви біля музею Акрополя.Пішки це займає десь 20-30 хвилин.Нам дозволили лишити речі до заселення з 12.00 години, але ця відповідь прийшла в повідомленнях запізно.Відносно ціни і якості гарний вибір.

Good choice in Athens Positive: The size of the apartment is way above average in rooms plus the patio all over Also, metro and transportation around the corner and supermarket also restorants Negative: Dining table outdoors in the patio Was hoping it would be inside, especially in summer, for us it was okay

Brilliant stay, would come back! Positive: The apartment was located in a great spot, in walking distance of many restaurants, local shops, transport links, and cultural places. Due to the hot weather we did end up getting many taxis. The apartment was a well decorated, spacious apartment. Brilliant size for a family or group of friends. There was lots of chairs around the apartment. The air conditioning was powerful and installed in each bedroom and the living room. The kitchen had lots of equipment, cutlery and utensils. There is also a washing machine, maiden, clips and baskets for clothes. The 2 bathrooms functioned well. The bedrooms had lots of storage and extra pillows and duvet / blankets which was a nice plus. The artificial and natural lighting was great all around the house. They also installed blackout blinders if you don't want any sun coming through. There were multiple balconies around the apartment, so it was lovely to sit outside in the mornings. There is a large table with chairs outside to eat on. A nice touch was the leaflets for takeaways, wifi connection, and how to turn on the hot water. The TV had a signal, and some of the channels had English speaking content. You must call the company number and add them on WhatsApp so that you can communicate with the team. They are responsive and helpful. Overall, it was a great stay. I would come back here with my friends and family. Negative: The mattresses were not very comfortable but not terrible. They were a hard type of mattress, which might be good for some.

Pohodlné a príjemné Positive: Boli sme skupina 8 dospelých - mali sme 4 izby, kuchynku, obývačku a 3 terasy na posedenie na 4.poschodí. Hneď oproti vchodu bol obchodík s vínom a neďaleko mnoho reštaurácií, metro, električka.
