I was looking for a hostel with socializing activities and after checking the website, it sounded promising. Maybe it's bad luck, but I barely met any people. Most were in groups. Breakfast is quite expensive (10 Euro) considering what's served (just basic stuff). Bathrooms are in the rooms. There are no sockets for each bed but only for USB-A cables (no for USB-C). However, the hostel is clean. Stuff is friendly. It's located in a convenient area. It's just the socializing aspect, that I read in many comments, weren't given.
Really amazing hostel with welcoming and understanding staff that are willing to help for any reason. They have a solid breakfast with various meat, cheese, cereal, fruit etc for 8-10 euro as well as free lemonade and coffee! They host cool events like movies, would stay again! The location is rather colorful.... loud and chaotic and an attack on the senses, the hostel is a oasis of peace in the noise. Would heartily recommend overall!
I stayed in one of the private rooms with attached bath. The hostel is in a good location close to restaurants, cafes, squares, etc. About a 20-minute walk up to the Acropolois, ten minutes to Plaka, and ten minutes to Syntagma Square. It can be a bit noisy with revelers, scooters, etc. The room is very basic - no TV, no dresser, no closet, no coffee pot or hot water kettle, no mini fridge. Just a basic, small private room with a desk and bathroom. The bathroom is about 3 feet from the bed, so if you're staying in the room with someone, you'd better be comfortable with that. The hostel has nice common areas with generous freebies (filtered water, coffee, tea). The hostel does a good job of creating community by hosting nearly nightly events. Overall, a good option for lodging in Athens city center.
This place was a great hostel, there was a great bakery across the street for breakfast and we were pretty close to all of the atreactions we wanted to see. My only issue was the leaving the room card in the slot for power. This made chargingy phone and power bank difficult. Also, there were only 2 outlets in the room with 4 beds.
I am older now (33) and typically leave hostels to younger folks at this point in my life, but I booked a private room here and don’t regret it (because you can’t beat the location/price-point). The attitude and helpfulness of the staff is incredible; everyone was so wonderful. The private room had AC, a comfy bed and was very clean. My driver from the airport mentioned what a nice area it was located in, some other perks are that it’s a 15 minute walk to Acropolis and there’s cold filtered water in the kitchen. Would recommend.
