Reviews

The location allowed observation of the real Athens It's too expensive
-
The reviews gave me a different impression of the place. Upon arrival, I didn’t feel comfortable as a solo female traveler, so I chose not to stay. I would only recommend it to travelers with very flexible expectations about the environment and clientele.

Booked a dorm bunk but upon checking into room no locks on cupboards. Was able to upgrade to private room, which I felt better leaving my things in. Since I was only using this place to sleep. Staff/owners where helpful. Area a little run down. Smallest of showers I ever tried to have a shower in. I stayed here years ago but didnt really see much that had changed. Also never made it to basement kitchen.
-
The shower is way too small but manage able

The place is as clean as hostel can be, has air conditioning. I got a room with balcony and had a great view, it has bathroom inside the room so it’s very comfortable. I stayed 2 times in a 4 bedroom room and both of the times i was in the room alone, that was really great. The staff are really nice and helpful, the guy at reception even called me a taxi and explained how to get to the aeroport. I think it’s a great option for it’s price ? I guess the neighborhood is a bit scary to walk at night but for this price you can’t complain

The hostel was great. The best part for me was the air-conditioning. I have COPD so sometimes I struggled in the heat. With air conditioning I was able to sleep well. Thanks.

Nice and kind hosting.nice staff, good AC in the hot weather of Athens. Affordable. Backyard with tables. not a big issue for most people, but the kitchen is closed at 21:00pm. Could be stay ,opened at night if someone likes to access the fridge.
-
Very sketchy area of town.
-
Cockroaches. Terrible sound isolation, you can hear the entire building in your room. The shower leaks in the entire room.
-
Hostel is in a great location close to the city center train station, very accessible. The rooms are also nice. The staff are very kind and helpful, and I had a great experience thanks to them :) Shower curtain was a bit short so it's easy to spill water on the bathroom floor.
-
I was the only one there and had a balcony. The staff are more than accommodating. The location is a little sketchy. Just a lot of homelessness unfortunately.
-
beds were comfortable, balcony location - even though you are in the center the location around the hostel feels very unsafe (a lot of homeless people and junkies, catcalling from a lot of drunk men), really small elevator, staff wasn't friendly
