• Sabrina (7/5): - Very clean! And quite considering its central location. No big lockers for your bags, only a small box for small valuables (phone, money). Not good for people travelling with laptops.
• Σπύρος (1/5): -
• Florencia (10/5): Muy buen hostel! - Hermoso hostel! Limpieza, comodidad, buen ambiente. Fue mi primera experiencia y sin dudarlo cuando vuelva a Atenas lo elegiría nuevamente. Gracias a el equipo por su calidez.
• Julieta del Rosario (10/5): -
• Bianca Ioana (10/5): Tutto ok 😊 - Check in semplice, personale gentile, struttura accogliente e pulita. Niente.
• Gina (10/5): Everything you’d want from a hostel — great design, spotless spaces, and people who make you feel right at home - Stunning aesthetics, spotless rooms, and hospitality that actually feels genuine. The best hostel I’ve stayed in, full stop. Already planning my return.
• Adam (8/5): - The staff were wonderful and the shared kitchen and lounge were great. It's well situated for some interesting book shops, bars and restaurants, and walking distance from the city centre. The cleaning crew does a thorough job as well. I was also able to extend my stay as needed. The noise from outside and other guests was a bit of an issue, and earplugs are a must. There is also a lack of adequate storage for your belongings, especially if you are situated in the top bunk. Some of the bathrooms are needing some maintenance as well.

• ‏abdulrahman (10/5): Amazing - I love the place n i will come back agian sure Just my roommates wasn’t clean .. clothes everywhere n sucks ..
• Maria (9/5): -
• Heraldine Candy (6/5): Económico - Que era centrico y que el lugar estaba limpio, la cocina era muy cómoda tenía los implementos necesarios y el lugar era tranquilo Mi cama estaba cerca a la puerta puesto que la luz se prendía mucho cuando la gente pasaba fue algo incómodo al igual que un poco de bulla alrededor, y se me perdió mi jabonera en el baño y solo la dejé un rato.
• Anna (9/5): - It was an amazing experience, staying in great Athenian neighbourhood. Very clean and renovated townhouse The only thing I would improve would be some sort of divisions (curtains) around the beds and potentially in the further future stronger structures ( metal?) of the bunk beds . The place was really great but was missing spittle bit of privacy as well as the movement of the beds and the sound when people where moving , stepping up the ladders on bunk beds . Apart from these , the hostel was AWESOME
• Nursultan (10/5): -
• Cam (10/5): -
• Wlodzimierz (8/5): When in Athens try this place - It was clean, good kitchen facilities and showers. Upper bunks have own lights and 2 230V sockets for chargers. The upper bunks are difficult to get to. There is no good holds and rungs are very narrow.

• RINA (3/5): Racist Place - Racist Place This was my first time visiting Greece, and I stayed at this hostel. When I told the night staff that I am Japanese, they laughed at me. Because my English is not very fluent, they may have assumed I wouldn’t understand. However, I could clearly hear them whispering “Japanese” to each other and laughing. For the record, while I am not confident in speaking English, I have no problem understanding it. I fully understood what was being said, which made the situation even more upsetting and hurtful. It was extremely disappointing to experience this kind of treatment on my first trip to Greece. This was not just rude — it felt clearly discriminatory. Is this because there are not many Asian guests at this hostel? Or is this kind of behavior considered acceptable here? I would like an explanation for why I was treated this way. I also strongly hope that this kind of behavior will be addressed and improved.
• Stefania (7/5): - Comfortable bed, clean spaces No lockers, I had to keep my stuff under the bed Location not great for a solo woman
• Asaf (9/5): -
• Morchi (10/5): - Nice and clean space, well organize.
• Adil (9/5): - الهوستيل نظيف والموظفون لطيفون السرير مريح الموقع مناسب وقريب من كل شيء
• Dajana (10/5): - The room felt spacious and it felt like the hostel attracted respectable visitors, keeping quiet in the rooms, organising your stuff and being calm in the common areas. Good place to rest and meet people. The ceiling is high and except of the beddings there are not much things that absorbs sounds, so even though everyone were respectful - small sounds echoed.
• Patty (4/5): Decepcionante - Nunca llegué a conocerlo Al parecer la zona no era buena según la policia, les escribí para que me dieran instrucciones y me contestaron que las mire en booking; preferí tomar otro hospedaje que si fue diligente con mi seguridad
• DIMITRIOS (7/5): -
• Kristina (9/5): Modern spot in a vibrant location - Modern and cozy, located in a nice and vibrant area. The staff is always happy to assist.
• Grant (10/5): -
• Sara (9/5): Gentilezza,accoglienza e pulizia tutto al top! - La gentilezza e disponibilità dello staff e la pulizia. Eccellenti! All'arrivo ci hanno detto che questo è un ostello per under 40 e io nel prenotare non l'avevo visto. Ma ce lo diceva solo per avvisarci che eventualmente, di notte,ci sarebbe potuto stare un pò di trambusto per l'andirivieni nelle camerate di chi viene in una città bella e viva come atene e la sera esce a godersi la movida! Ma chiarito che non era un problema siamo rimasti.Il trambusto poi non c'è stato. La stanza era pulitissima, i bagni splendenti a tutte le ore, addirittura ci hanno disinfettato i bagagli prima di entrare in stanza! Davvero unico per pulizia e accoglienza! Anche le lenzuola comprese nel prezzo! L'unico piccolo neo che io ero nel letto di sopra e la scaletta per salire su è un pò scomoda e per salire ho fatto un pò di peripezie. Per il resto tutto ok.
• Nathalia (9/5): Muy buen lugar si viajas solo - Muy bonito y limpio
• Konstantina (10/5): Overall, I had a great experience and I recommend it. - A beautiful neoclassical building converted into a stylish and modern hostel in the heart of the city. I stayed for one night. The staff was smiling and helpful. The room was comfortable enough for six bunk beds and quiet. There were common showers and wc in every floor which were clean and spacious.In the kitchen you can find all the necessary utilities and also coffee to make yourself a nice cup of filter coffee in the morning. There is also a nice sitting area inside and a quiet garden area. There were no lockers in the room for luggage. There is free space under the down bed to put big baggage and a small wall box to put small stuff for which however you need to bring your own lock. I didnt have so I just took my personal bag with me whenever I left the room to go to the bathroom or to the kitchen.
• Jean-Paul (8/5): Accueillant mais décevant - L'employé à l'accueil, très compréhensif. La propreté, la décoration, le confort, la situation. Que l'hostel soit réservé aux moins de 45 ans. Booking ne m'a prévenu, j'ai failli me casser le nez après des heures de bateau et de bus. Heureusement, un employé sympathique m'a laissé passer la première nuit. Ce genre de restriction devrait être indiquée clairement et dès le début.
• Domenico (10/5): -
• Rhowen (8/5): Good but the staff was rude, not welcoming. - When we arrive the staff was unfriendly. Lack of understanding to the arriving travellers or because we are asians. His English communication didn’t help because we understood it as rude,negative attitude of the staff towards the travellers and answering the traveller just put your bag there etc. doesn’t care at all. No early check-in allowed and said you must be exactly check-in on this time with tone, didn’t understood we are tired from travels. He Never said sorry, just condescending.

• Εύα (10/5): -
• Juan R. Pérez (9/5): - Segunda vez que me alojo en este hostal y repetiría una tercera. Es céntrico, cómodo, con todas las facilidades y comodidades y personal super atento. Personal encantador y muy cercano.
• E.P. (10/5): - Πολύ καλή η τοποθεσία, σε πεζοδρομο στη Μαυρομιχάλη, ήσυχα και ασφαλή. Η κουζίνα ήταν πλήρως εξοπλισμένη και πεντακάθαρη. Στο δωματιο τα λευκά είδη μοσχομύριζαν καθαριότητα. Τα παιδιά στη ρεσεψιόν ευγενεστατα και πρόσχαρα! Ενώ είχα κλείσει δωμάτιο γυναικών, για ένα βράδυ μόνο ήρθε 1 παλικάρι. Δεν με πείραξε, το παιδί ήταν ευγενικό, αλλά ίσως άλλη να είχε πρόβλημα.

• Olivianne (9/5): Great accommodation to visit Athens and enjoy the amazing Exarcheia. - The location is just amazing! The neighborhood has a lot of bars, coffee shops, restaurants but since the hostel rooms mostly faced the inside courtyard, it's pretty quite for the location. And the hostel is super clean with great amenities. I didn't partake but it seemed like there were a lot of activities organized by the team as well. Perfect for both a more solo trip and for socializing. As always with hostel sometimes you can be roommate with someone who really doesn't understand those unwritten social rules and will open the blinds fully and pack for a whole hour at 6 a.m., but this is not at all on the hostel and I would still 100% come back.
• Elisabeth (10/5): -
• Wiktor (10/5): - Modern, and very well maintained and run by the staff! Excellent choice👌
• Zhivov (10/5): -
• Carla Judith (10/5): Hostel Espectacular. - El hostel es precioso, antes que nada. Las habitaciones son súper cómodas y espaciosas. La realidad es que es uno de los mejores hostels en los que me he hospedado. Siempre estaba súper limpio y ordenado, muy bueno el sistema que tenían las habitaciones para abrirse, ya que de esa manera no hacía falta moverse con llaves o tarjetas para entrar, lo que resultaba muy cómodo. El ambiente alrededor era muy bueno, había bares y tiendas, lo que creaba una muy linda atmósfera. La realidad es que no tiene nada para mejorar, el nivel que tiene este lugar es altísimo. Si bien a mí me terminó gustando más la zona de Monastiraki, que se encuentra un poquito alejada del lugar (20 min a pie), aun así teniendo en cuenta eso lo volvería a elegir, porque el camino para llegar a esa zona resultaba muy ameno para hacerlo incluso de noche. Es un lugar súper recomendado para quedarse

• Irving (10/5): -
• Ilias (10/5): - Καταρχάς ήταν πεντακάθαρο, το προσωπικό σε ότι ρωτούσες σε βοηθούσε απευθείας , ο κόσμος που διέμενε ήταν φιλικός και τρομερή τοποθεσία
• Samuel (10/5): -
• AIKATERINI (9/5): -
• Francoise (9/5): - L emplacement et la modernité du lieu tout en étant dans un bel immeuble ancien Le dortoir de 4 personnes un peu petit
• Isabel (7/5): - The hostel is very nice, well-located, and the staff were kind. Very modern installation. My belongings were stolen in the common bathroom while I was taking a shower, so I'm not sure all guests are entirely trustworthy.
• Anastasiia (10/5): Потрясающе - Наверное лучший хостел, в котором я останавливалась! Прекрасное расположение, знакомство начинается с приятной входной группы и очень дружелюбного персонала на ресепшене (Καλημέρα, Αναστάσιε, και ένα μεγάλο ευχαριστώ σε σένα) внутри качественный приятный минималистичный ремонт, я любовалась! высокие потолки и большие окна, белоснежное белье, ящики для хранения, продуманные эргономичные ванные комнаты и туалет, очень удобные - хватает вешалок и полочек, всегда чистые и в наличии все принадлежности, автоматические системы дезинфекции и диффузора. На территории есть уютный потрясающий дворик со столиками. Атмосфера здесь приятная, умиротворяющая, дружелюбная,самые приятные впечатления от хостела как и от Афин!
