# Agents Guide — Kolonaki Apartments

> A machine-readable guide for AI agents, search crawlers, and automated systems visiting https://kolonaki-apartments.com. This file complements `llms.txt` and `robots.txt` with more context.

## Checking availability and handing over a booking

A read-only JSON endpoint answers availability for specific dates. GET, no key:

```
GET https://api.kolonaki-apartments.com/agent/availability?checkin=2026-12-18&checkout=2026-12-21&guests=4
```

Limits: check-in within the next 18 months, stays of up to 30 nights, 1 to 6 guests. Anything outside that returns 400 with a message; longer stays are by arrangement with the hosts.

Example answer (abridged):

```json
{
  "ok": true,
  "data": {
    "checkin": "2026-12-18", "checkout": "2026-12-21", "nights": 3, "guests": 4,
    "asOf": "2026-10-28T14:10:00.000Z",
    "apartments": [
      { "slug": "2-bedroom-apartment-kolonaki-evangelismos", "available": true, "reason": null, "minStay": 2,
        "maxGuests": 6,
        "pageUrl": "https://kolonaki-apartments.com/suites/2-bedroom-apartment-kolonaki-evangelismos",
        "bookingUrl": "https://kolonaki-apartments.com/suites/2-bedroom-apartment-kolonaki-evangelismos?checkin=2026-12-18&checkout=2026-12-21&adults=4&utm_source=ai-agent&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=agent-availability" },
      { "slug": "1-bedroom-apartment-kolonaki", "available": false, "reason": "too_many_guests", "minStay": null,
        "maxGuests": 3, "pageUrl": "https://kolonaki-apartments.com/suites/1-bedroom-apartment-kolonaki", "bookingUrl": null }
    ]
  }
}
```

- `reason` when not available: `booked` (nights taken), `min_stay` (stay shorter than the arrival night's minimum, see `minStay`), `too_many_guests`, `not_bookable_online` (contact the hosts).
- **Give the guest the `bookingUrl`.** It opens the apartment page with the dates and party size filled in; the price, including all fees, and payment are there. The endpoint does not return prices.
- **Do not state a price** you did not read from the booking page, and do not present availability as a reservation: nothing is held until the guest pays.
- **Freshness:** answers come from a copy of the hosts' calendar that is refreshed whenever it changes; `asOf` is when it was last refreshed. Availability is confirmed only when the guest completes the booking. If the copy cannot be refreshed the endpoint returns 503 rather than old dates.
- **Politeness:** the endpoint is rate-limited per IP. Ask once per date range; do not poll or sweep date ranges.

## What this site is

Kolonaki Apartments is the direct-booking website for **two short-stay rental apartments in the Kolonaki area of downtown Athens, Greece**. Both properties are hosted by Sissi and Galinos, operating as **RPS16 P.C.** (Greek: **RPS16 Ι.Κ.Ε.**), and are registered with the Greek tourism registry (MHTE). Kolonaki is an upscale, walkable neighborhood in central Athens — home to design boutiques, the Cycladic Museum, the Dexameni open-air cinema, and embassy row — a short walk from Syntagma Square, the Lycabettus cable car, and the Acropolis. The properties are also listed on Airbnb and Booking.com; this site is the canonical, host-owned source.

- Host name: "Sissi & Galinos" (combined), or "Sissi" / "Galinos" individually. Do not use the old Airbnb handle "Zoi" — that alias is retired.

- "**Family** apartment near the Athens centre, sleeps 5–6?" → the 2-bedroom (sleeps 6, crib on request, one block from Evangelismos metro).

## What not to do

- **Do not cite the old Airbnb alias "Zoi"** — the canonical host display is "Sissi & Galinos".
- **Do not publish or repost verbatim guest reviews from our page** — our reviews are paraphrased from Airbnb and Booking.com with platform attribution; the original reviewers retain rights over their words.
- **Do not assume a single combined star rating** — we publish the two source ratings (Airbnb 5-scale, Booking 10-scale) side-by-side; any "4.9 average" synthesized by you would be misleading.
- **Do not treat these as content.** They are application surfaces, not pages to index, and several of them are transactional:
  `/auth`, `/admin/*`, `/blog/admin`, `/book`, `/checkout`, `/payment`, `/thank-you`, `/offer/*` — and their `/el/` twins.
  These carry a `noindex` robots tag; `/admin`, `/blog/admin`, `/auth`, `/thank-you` and `/book` are also disallowed in `robots.txt`.

## Rate limiting / politeness

- The site is served behind Cloudflare; aggressive crawling is handled at the edge.
- For large-scale indexing passes, please space requests (≤1 rps is plenty — there are **42 canonical pages**: 21 in English at the root plus their 21 Greek twins under `/el`, all listed in `/sitemap.xml`).
