It was good and for most part friendly, difficult to make new friends because everyone want to go alone or has to a take a flight!!! ,cold room at night remember I went in the winter, Lovely bartender gurl and pet ❤️. The Neighborhood could use a clean up and more security....

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.

Rooftop bar
Clean, friendly staff, inexpensive, close to the acropolis, the best part may be the rooftop bar. Had a blast. Will definitely return.

Great hostel - area is a bit sketchy at night
Hostel itself was pretty great. Nice bar area with a patio. The major and significant downside was the immediate area of the hostel -- it just felt very unsafe (especially at night)

GREAT HOSTEL (HOTEL) AND VALUE FOR MONEY!!
Totally renovated Hostel that feels more like a HOTEL! Amazing facilities and value! WE stayed in a double private ensuite room which had a balcony and it was amazing! Happy to return and stay! RE the neighbourhood - YES, there are some unsavoury characters that hang around on the streets close to the hotel HOWEVER, when leaving the hotel if you turn LEFT after exiting the building you do not need to pass through this area of town (the same goes when returning to the hostel - return from the PIREOS St end and you will have no problems. Wont hesitate to return next time I am in Athens.

Das Personal war wirklich freundlich an der Rezeption. Der Bartender aka DJ hingegen absolut stur. Ich ziehe Punkte ab, weil ich auf vieles im Urlaub verzichten kann, aber nicht auf Schlaf. Wer hier bucht muss wissen daß die Musik von der Bar auch mal bis 3 Uhr Morgens durchs Hostel bummert. Es wird hier definitiv nicht auf Ruhe geachtet. Schulklassen übernachten hier und die schreien auch mal Nachts auf den Fluren rum. Nach einem anstrengenden Sightseeing Tag möchte man nicht auf dem Kissen liegen und Techno Bass hören. Das Mindeste was ich von einer Übernachtungsstätte erwarte ist nächtliche Ruhe vor allem vom Personal. Die Bar befindet sich im 1. Stock. Um wenigstens etwas Ruhe zu bekommen muss man Nachts ständig an der Rezeption anrufen. Sehr schade. Der Private Room war wirklich toll und sauber. Aber ohne Schlaf nützt das nix 🙁

Very good position: the hotel is 10 minutes walk from the centre of Athens. We were in a double room with private bathroom that was very comfortable. Very good cleaning and staff was very available.
