This is the best hostel I have ever stayed in!!! It is so cute and clean and cozy! I love the restaurant downstairs, that was super convenient and very delicious! And the fact that it has a dj booth with a hangout area is so cool and helpful with meeting people! I would 1000x stay here again! I love the location as well. Super close to the touristy stuff and walking distance to so many shops and the metro! I loved my stay here!!

Lovely, cosy, and clean building with a great ground floor and mezzanine for resting in, reading, getting a coffee or a beer. The 6 bed dorm was excellent; clean, very comfy bed, and nice hot and powerful shower. I had no noise or privacy concerns whatsoever from other guests or staff. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. And the location is great too, just a 5 minute walk from Thiseio station. I feel lucky to have found this place at such an affordable price and if I return to Athens I would definitely stay here again.

Staff were lovely, the rooms were modern and clean, pool could do with an upgrade as it is not very accessible (no entry or exit steps or rails) but the breakfast is great and in a safe neighbourhood, it is a bit of a walk to get places but you know that when booking - still close enough to Syntagma and not too far from Ermou St/heart of Monastiraki

This was the worst hotel experience of my life. My roommates were awful. The guy came into the room at 1 am, opened a bag of chips, ate them, and kept burping. The rooms were cramped and smelled bad. I made the mistake of booking a multi-occupancy room and I regret it very much. However, the hotel staff were kind and helpful.

A good hostel in a walking distance from the center. I stayed in a 4 bed dorm for five nights and was surprised how easy this was. I still recommend earplugs for good night sleep. A small annoyance was the electronic locks that you must open with your phone - this means you have to carry your phone everywhere, because the door closes by itself and gets locked. The restaurant is good and staff is friendly.
