Customer Comments:-
“The location was just a 10 minute walk from the train station which takes you right to the main sites. And it was walking distance to the Archaeological Museum as well as restaurants, grocery stores and good bakeries! The free internet was a definite plus as was the lift. The staff was really helpful and friendly. The bus to Corfu was also very convenient. Overall, a pretty good place to stay in Athens.”

  1. Kayla From Canada On September 30, 2011

    There were two females working at reception. Both great. The older of the two (I think her name was Jen, I don't remember) was extremely helpful and went out of her way to make me feel safe and accommodated. Breakfast was just bread, juice&coffee, but other items were available for purchase. Loved the hostel, but not a great area to stay in. Still, there is a metro station nearby for easy transportation. -Kayla.

  2. Joy Valerie From Philippines On June 28, 2011

  3. Clare From Australia On June 15, 2011

    The staff were very friendly, fun and very helpful while we stayed there. The free breakfast was good and it was easy to get to metro's.

  4. Matthew From USA On July 23, 2010

    This hostel was way better than what we paid for it. Air conditioning, no bed bugs, and a bar with a good happy hour make this place a winner. The walking tour was good as well. There is no better hostel for this price.

  5. Paul From England On September 2, 2009

    Excellent hostel, would recomend and certainly stay again....

  6. Jaleesa From USA On April 15, 2009

    The hostel was surprisingly clean. The staff members were really nice, fun, inviting, and helpful, especially hannah and johno. The offer a welcome drink when you get there! It also helps to have 24hr check-in. The people were young college age students like me, which always makes for a good environment. Make sure yo get the dinner that's offered and quite a bit, for only 5 euro! Over a well lush experience.

  8. Ashley From USA On May 15, 2008

    it is hard to find at first, but once you do it is easy to navigate the streets of athens. the staff is very helpful too and the rooms are pretty clean

  9. Fernando From Brazil On August 22, 2007

    It is a very good hostel. I liked very much. The only problem is that it is not so close the main attractions. But it is not bad.

  10. Mariano From Argentina On May 16, 2007

    Place is o.k. Clean, big, and quiet. No problems with showers or wc. Very easy to find, and near to the metro. Love greece and greek food. Also cheap greek hotels and hostels. Met good people over there.

  11. Elena From Spain On October 14, 2006

    It's quite close to Archaeology National Museum, 6 minutes walking to Victoria Square (metro station) and 10 minutes walking to Larisis Tren Station. Non turistic, quiet area. Good pub downstairs. Good Staff at reception. Very good guide for the "Athens Walking Tour" (but too fast). What I didn't like: there aren't any plugs inside rooms!!!

  12. Christina From Australia On December 15, 2005
