Overall this is a pretty good hostel to stay in considering the price. The view from the rooftop bar is incredible and everything inside was super clean. All of doors to the rooms are keycard access so no one can wonder in. There’s also a nice social space on the 1st floor. The area around the hostel is not the safest or cleanest place to stay in Athens; however, I never had any issues walking around by myself. There were some guys staying at another hostel (I believe it was north of this one) who saw multiple people at night shooting themselves up so be aware of that. My main complaint is that the bunk room I stayed in was extremely hot. I understand that there are AC regulations in the city and it was July but even when it was on it felt like it did nothing. I was constantly sweating through the whole night. I never went into anyone else’s room so I’m not sure if it was a hostel wide problem. I also did not ask the staff about it because I was not staying long. So be aware of that if you’re sensitive to temperature. Despite that, I would still stay here again but hopefully in room with better AC.

Great location but everything costs money. There was no shampoo or body wash in the showers, no towels were included, and the lock required buying instead of a deposit.

The staff were really great, the room was larger and more comfortable than I had expected which was great (I took a private room with a private shower). However the street the hostel is on was terrifying, filled with groups of immigrant men lurking around at all hours of the day and night. It was also incredibly noisy during the one night I stayed there as people filled the streets to celebrate some world-cup nonsense until 3AM, honking car horns, shouting and shooting fireworks. The area just up the road towards the main square has a lot of police presence, so if you're traveling solo, it is worth spending a bit more on one of the larger hotels right on the square, especially if you are a woman solo traveler. I literally had to take a taxi for just 400 meters as it was too dangerous to walk to the hostel after sundown, the Greek taxi driver walked me to the door and told me not to come out alone at night. That says a lot

The location does not feel the safest but it is a short walk to a few very nice streets. I met amazing people there and the rooftop bar views and drinks were very reasonable. Overall a great experience.

The hostel was ok, very clean and comfortable. The area a little is a little sketchy so move with haste and a destination in mind, I wouldn’t linger for too long. The staff was fairly nice and helpful. During my visit there wasn’t a lot of travelers there so the ambience was much more quiet and laidback. For me a 7/10

Staff is absolutely useles. Waste of money
Total waste of my money. They give you a complementary drink on the house that literally tastes like cough drops, not worth it. I stayed because it was closer to an interview I had and this place was closer. 2 people decided to have sex in a room shared with outher 8 ppl and the hostel does absolutely nothing, despite I complained twice, they just looked and said 'oh sorry'. They have rules in their website, absolutely useless because obviously no one cares. The street in which it's located is not safe fot women going alone. Try to spend a little bit more money and go to some place that's in a better sector.
