Great hostel with rooftop view of acropolis!
We had a great stay! The rooms were large, clean, and the AC worked well. We were in an area where multiple people warned us to not walk alone at night (we are two women). The staff didn’t let us check in until 3pm, but the initial email had said check in was 2pm. I wished they would’ve offered to let us shower in a public washroom since the check in time we were told wasn’t accurate. Otherwise, everything was great. There’s an incredible view on the top deck too of the acropolis.

The staff were fabulous, and the general atmosphere was good. It was clean. The shower was hot with good water pressure, but lacked enough bench space for your belongings. Wifi was excellent. It was close to the metro, and easy walking distance to most sites. Lots of restaurants nearby. It was a little noisy at night, as there is a bit of street noise (double glazing on the windows). The airconditioning was unfortunately fixed at 24 degrees, which was tòo hot to sleep comfortably, so people kept opening the windows, which let the noise in.

Fantastic Front Desk Staff with so much knowledge to share with you about the city. Clean Restrooms and Good Wifi make this a fantastic selection for your stay in Athens. The local attractions are within walking distance and the main center is just blocks away!

I had such a wonderful experience for my first time traveling alone at all. The staff (Especially Maria) made my experience even better by displaying and exhibiting such kindness towards me that I will definitely stay here again in the future. I recommend this to everyone.
