Hostel was clean and tidy, included breakfasts in the morning were good and staff are at the desk 24/7, which is especially nice if solo travelling. Location is a little out of the way though and I found taxis were hard to get via Bolt for this reason.

Much better than a hotel. Easy access to the central area with restaurants and bars. Free wine in the evening with chatting with each other was awesome. Clean bed. I definitely choose this place again, when I come to Athens.

A lovely stay in Athens at this wonderful location! What a fantastic place! No wonder is rated high for outstanding! The staff are great, professionals, well mannered and top notch. Costas, John, Odysseus, Madonna, all have shown me hospitality at the highest level.

Everything was wonderful, staff very personable and helpful. I rented the room downstairs and being in the middle of the city you hear city noises but with a good pair of ear plugs, it’s a great location and very nice coffee shop 1 min by foot and great restaurant too. For breakfast, it would be great to have some fruits! Otherwise, the bunk bed rooms: it’s really hard to leave at night as all the lights are out and almost impossible to unlock the door from the inside and bothered all the other women in the bedroom! I feel so sorry that I had to catch a flight that early! A big thank you to all staff as I had a wonderful stay!

Semi private bunks, but could have used curtains. No bed bugs that i could find. Overall a decent stay. Bit of a trek from the main attraction area, but I never felt unsafe. Shower wet the entire bathroom, tiled floors no mats =slippery. I suppose i could have rented a towel to put on the floor.

Standard hostel. Felt like Unsafe area. Dark and sketchy. Not on the main road. Had to take some twists and turns to get there. Far from the Acropolis. Not within walking distance you would have to take a bus or train. No views of anything. First pic is the view outside of the tiny window in the room. Beds were comfortable. I got bit up by some bugs my guess were mosquitoes (I’m hoping not bedbugs) because I left the window open, it was stuffy and hot in the room I needed ventilation.

Nous avons été assez déçus de notre nuit dans cette hôtel pourtant bien noté. Nous avions la chambre avec lit double au rez-de-chaussée, derrière l'accueil, et dont la fenêtre donne sur la rue. La fenêtre étant du simple vitrage, nous avons très mal dormi et avions l'impression d'être dans la rue agitée tant l'isolation sonore était nulle ! Petit déjeuner très sommaire également. Nous nous attendions à mieux mais je pense que cet hôtel est très bien cependant pour des voyageurs solo style auberge de jeunesse !
