The Eastern part of Paros is a find, and Marpissa is a central location to tour the many interesting places in this region. This "art house" in Marpissa is well-placed and well-stocked to facilitate your enjoyment of the region; everything worked smoothly from the get-go. The host was very responsive with communications, hospitable, and considerate. Truth be told, it is on the main road of the town, so while it is convenient for transportation (including bus), one must make peace with the noise of cars and motorbikes whizzing past. On weekends and holidays, noise can also emanate from the bar/taverna opposite the "art house" till the wee hours. I enjoyed this region more than expected, and staying in the "art house" was a key factor.
