Would recommend this place!
My favorite part was having very very sturdy bunk beds since some hostels feel flimsy and rickety. I appreciated that all beds had access to an electrical plug and that there was a lot of space between beds to move around. The WiFi is incredibly fast but the kitchen is quite small. Location is amazing.

Amazing Location, but Small Shower
Amazing location. The staff were super friendly and helpful. I stayed in a mixed dorm room. There were lockers (big enough to fit a small bag). They provided sheets and towels. It's a busy area of town, so it's a bit noisy at night, but this didn't bother me. The only major downside was the washrooms. They were in the shared room itself and super tiny. There was barely enough room in the stall for me to change my clothes. The floor was very wet and I didn't want to get a shower (not much room to put your clothes to change into afterwards). Besides the bathroom though, it was good! I wanted a convenient location for one night, and this definitely met my needs!

Great location
The staff were very friendly and helpful. The area was perfect. The only downside was the washrooms. The washroom was right in the shared dorm, and the stalls were so tiny it was difficult to change clothes. I didn’t even attempt to get a shower. I haven’t stayed at many hostels though, so maybe this is normal (but the ones I stayed at in Japan had washrooms in the hallways which I liked better.) There were lockers by the bed and towels were provided.

The room was in a noisy area. But I was just there for a night. Shower was small. Hard to put things for when you needed a shower. Plus the room was hot. But for one night it was what I needed. The staff that checked me in was very nice and helpful.

Basic bed in city centre
Arriving on a late flight I only needed a bed for 4 hours rest before tackling the Acropolis first thing and moving on to Agistiri. Around ten min walk from Syntagma bus stop. Grotty building in a badly lit street and not very well signed. Check in check out ok. Bathroom facilities horrible but dorm ok and lockers modern. Did the job for 15 euros and didn t fancy booking hotel for a few hours.very noisy bar outside where people drank outside until 4am at least.

Besides good location and price. .nothing else
Location is top notch... right in syntagma and 5 to 7mins walk to syntagma sq for airport bus. Downside is the noise from the pubs all around the building. . This hostel is practically surrounded by music blaring pubs..but if you go to bed at 2ish am (not sure about Saturday)... It will be silence by then. Shower is small with only a shower curtain over for mixed gender usage and no lock in toilet cubicle.. someone can just open the shower curtain and toilet door while you are in it. I was so glad that i only stayed 1 night. But for that price.. i guess you get what you pay for, €10.

First time in a hostel and I was a little concerned. I met several friendly university students and a grandmother travelling for various reasons. This was a positive experience and I would stay at a hostel again.

Friendly stay, but loud...
Very friendly place and conviniently situated! The bathrooms were'nt so clean and it was pretty noisy (there is something like a discotheque pretty close, and people were really loud in the morning inside of the room) Nevertheless, considering the cheap price this is a pretty good bet. I would go back :)

Great backpackers hostel, perfect location
Located right near the Acropolis etc. so would be perfect for backpackers. I actually stayed at a different hostel for most of my stay (NOT one I'd recommend!) and moved here just for the last night because it was right near the bus to the airport. However, I really wish I'd stayed here the whole time! It's very good value, the staff are super friendly and helpful, and the beds are very comfy. Because my flight was early I wasn't going to be able to make breakfast, so they very kindly made a delicious toasty for free for me to take away instead, amazing! They were also able to recommend to me the best way to get to the airport, they knew all the bus times, etc. - very helpful.
12 bed dorm room - very clean and tidy

I want you to return the worst full amount. I stayed for three nights, but there was a tick in a bed, and the whole body was stuck. I was buying insurance from Japan, so it was well-informed about a hospital and is a hospital visit after I return home. "Wait a moment until 23:00 even if the correspondence of a reception is also worst and I'll ask you to put air-conditioning.", you didn't put it. I asked staff to put it because it had passed since I stood it for two hours at time. Why is it hot? Shouldn't the window be opened! You said so and didn't put it. She thought a head was strange not to turn on the air-conditioner for a guest though she was in the effective cool room of an air conditioner. When I go to a kitchen early in the morning, why is she so early? I was telling to 最悪でした、全額返してほしいです。 三泊しましたがベットにダニがいて全身刺されました。日本から保険に入っていったので病院に通いましたし、帰国してからも病院通いです。 レセプションの対応も最悪で、冷房つけて下さいとお願いしても、23時まで待てとつけてくれませんでした。二時間我慢して、時間になったからつけてほしいとお願いしにいってもなぜ暑いのか？窓をあげれば涼しいじゃないかと言われなかなか素直につけてもらえませんでした。自分はエアコンの効いた涼しい部屋にいるのに何を言っているんだと思いました。 早朝にキッチンに行くとなぜこんなに早い？掃除をしてるから出て行けと言われました。24時間使えるキッチンなので行ったら出て行けと言われ、それでも早朝にアクロポリスに行きたかったので、訳を話してもお願いしても掃除が終わるまで入れてくれませんでした。食事を用意するおばさんがきてこんな時間に掃除してるなんておかしいと怒られた彼女は逃げて行きました。やはりこんな早朝に掃除をするのはおかしかったのだと理解しました。 その食事を用意するおばさんも変わっていて、宿泊者が食べるところを見張っていました。食べこぼしたり、気に食わないことがあるといちいち文句を言われ食べた気がしませんでした。 こんなにも酷いホステルは初めてで本当に辛かったです。 シャワー室は狭いし、ダニはいるし、エアコンはつけてくれないし、レセプションのスタッフは最悪だし、もし分かっていれば絶対にここには泊まらなかったです！少し高くても他のところに泊まっていました！ 何十箇所もホステルに泊まりましたが一番最悪です。

bonne adresse eco
Très bonne solution pour un voyage solo avec sac au dos. Personnel jeune et très aimable. Petit déj naturel (pain, feta, tomates, olives, café, confitures...) Le prix défit toute concurrence (13 euro petit-déj inclus...) Seul bémol, la rue emplie de café avec ambiance musicale est très très bruyante.

+ 아주 좋은 위치, 관광지를 걸어서 둘러볼 수 있음 + 넓은 공간에 빵빵한 에어컨 + 친절한 스텝 + 편안한 옥상 테라스 - 다 좋은데...... 샤워룸이 과장 섞어서 관짝 수준입니다. 좁아도 너무 좁아요. 샤워가 아니라 자유를 향한 투쟁을 하고 있는 느낌. 물론 인간의 적응력은 놀라워서 그 관짝 안에서 샤워하며 빨래도 하게 됩니다만...... 아테네라는 도시도 그렇고 이 호스텔도 그렇고 다시 가기에는 살짝 망설여집니다 ^^; - 바로 앞에 술집이 있는데 새벽 늦게까지 좀 시끄럽습니다.

Vous pouvez y aller!
Quartier animé, bars et petits restos stylés. Proche du métro. Toutes les attractions principales (shopping, visites culturelles, acropole..) se font à pied. Bien faire attention a vos affaires dans la rue, surtout mettre son sac devant! (Nous étions deux filles et aucun soucis!) Vaste dortoir, pas les lits les uns sur les autres. Douches et wc dans chaque dortoir Personnel très accueillant et serviable.
