The receptionist (male) is rude and paranoid. I called the police on him because he refused to give me a receipt and he was harassing me from the time I checked in. He was psychologically harassing me and was threatening to kick me out because he did not likely question about the neighborhood if it's safe or not. I was appalled and traumatized by his attitude. I filed a police report for harassment and refusal to issue a receipt. Racist and inhospitable service. Will not recommend to anyone. Stay away from this paranoid run hostel. The guests were also racist and the lockers open with the same key for every guest. Not safe for your valuables.
I really enjoyed how the host makes you feel very welcome and introduces you to all the facilities they have and was very resourceful when it comes to transportation.
Geogio est super gentil, et drôle, il nous a fait a manger a tous ceux qui était present un soir.
Le patio est agréable, la cuisine bien équipé.
Seul bémol : Pas bcp de prises dans les chambres, mais il y a largement assez de place dans les espaces communs.
Et quand l'hôtel est plein la wifi n'est pas super efficace, en general ca va !
To say that this was the most disgusting hostel I've ever stayed in is an understatement. There is no heat in the rooms and no a/c in the summer so when I was there it was freezing. Its only guests other than myself were insane, one even put snot in my food. The bathrooms were disgusting (hair/ mold everywhere) and you had to pay for hot water in the shower. Not that you would want to take one, because they were disgusting too. The owners and receptionist were rude and unhelpful, and the location was way outside any tourist attraction in Athens. Overall, do not book here. Spend the extra 2 euros and stay somewhere nice. This place is honestly a glorified trap house.
The location isn't clearly marked! A hostel or hotel is just a bed at the end of the day. They had a bed with clean sheets. It was hot in the room but luckily there was a fan. I wouldn't recommend staying here. Find another accommodation.

Stay for 2 night, great place for Backpackers. Every night I make new friends there. Only drawback is kinda far (20 min) from metro, and bus is often late. One more thing, there is quiet hour where the neighboring old lady will shout at us if we make some noise, makes some funny experience though.
El problema es que se debe pagar por el agua caliente y que ademas son pequenas las duchas. lo demas todo bien tiene cocina y la gente quea tiende es excelente

Cool place to stay for a while.
The stay was good. I met a lot of great friends from across the world. Although it is not as comfortable as a traditional hotel, but you can spend a few days if your intention is to explore Athens and not stay in the room all day. Also, the manager of the hotel was so nice.
Everything is good.
But if u want hot water, u have to pay about that.

The staff are very friendly and helpful and the place had a fun atmosphere to it. The bathrooms are tight and the green door is not labeled but other than that a very positive experience.
