    The breakfast was rubbish. I found it quite entertaining really, but the room had a built in game of hunt the lightswitch :) wifi is weak in the upper floors.

    The room had a balcony with an amazing view over athens, a panorama backed by the acropolis.

    I was really missing the soap in the bathroom. I cannot catch that how it happens there is no soap provided to wash your hand. Other thing that made be disappointed was the pillow. It was terrible flat. Barely exists :)

    It is a hostel, you exactly get what you can expect from a hostel. Not more, not less :) Its location is very central, close to the metro.

    On the ground floor there is little bit noisy because on the street there are a lot of restaurants and bars so people walking there all the time

    Generally, it is a great place, really close to Acropolis. On roof there is a bar with great view and in basement there is baggage locker for 0.5 EUR per hour or 4 EUR per day.

    The linens… ah it’s very unhygienic to give people bedsheet (clean one) to be separated from duvet/blanket that is not often washed. I would personally feel a lot of safer if it was real duvet cover (like pillow case- you can close it, it „works” on both sides). That and no curtains are something I would change.

    The location is amazing!!! Close to everything, only thing you need public transport is if you want to go to the beach. I also loved the terrace on the rooftop.

    Rooms are very small and matraces are old, I would say very old so my body hurt by sleeping on them to be honest.The highest time to change them.

    It is very big and has a lot of space, common room and basement where you can work or just take some rest. It has a kitchen and elevator. Good prices by their own page. Roof top on 6th floor, some rooms have even balcony, amazing breakfast.Kind and helpful staff, always clean. Some of the receptionists are also very nice.

    Nothing to dislike. It was as expected.

    The location is perfect for seeing all the usual sights. We walked everywhere. So many great cafés and restaurants walking distance. 2 lovely restaurants on the hostel street. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooftop bar has a great view, used it 1 of the nights after dinner. Nice way to end the day.

    Omg the bed!! For a superior double room the bed was terrible and old metal framed thing which creaked and groaned every time you turned over. I didn’t sleep well at all and neither did my partner. You really need to invest in a proper decent bed if you’re going to advertise something as superior

    Location was excellent 5 mins from Monastiraki Square, the metro and excellent shopping and restaurants. We had a superior double room with a stunning view over the Acropolis

    My room was at street level and because it was weekend it was noisy almost throughout the night. Also the bed could be better taken care of.. It was metal and pretty squeeky when moving. Small room but good value!

    You cannot ask for a better location for central Athens. Many historical sites, restaurants, markets and Athens busiest metro station, Monastiraki, within a few minutes walking distance! Great view from their rooftop bar!

    Tiny kitchen, poorly designed bathrooms need a shower curtain. Kitchen is scantily stocked with anything to cook or eat with.

    Right in the middle of the city. Easy walking and access to metro.

    the elevator was so slow and only for 2 ppl, there was little space in the reception (I mean only a few seats), the internet worked all time except for youtube( sometimes was not working for video but for other things was ok, maybe only in my room, not sure)

    The location was really good, and the view from the room and the top floor was nice, they also have a big windows and they can be darkened at night

    Excellent stay, can't beat the location.

    Check in took forever, the front desk guy kept disappearing, he looked bored and like he really didn't want to be there, I would definately rate him 0 for customer service.

    Best location in Athens, there are hundreds of shops within 5 minutes, many many restaurants. 10 minutes walk to the Acropolis, beautiful view of it as well from the hostel's rooftop. You really can't beat the location. The room was pretty big, definately a good value, we had a private room with a balcony. The heat only works when you are in the room and it takes 10 minutes to start up, we were struggling with it at first, but realized it needs time to turn on. Check out went very smoothly.

    nil.

    The location is perfect, you are in a walk distance to most of all the main attractions, and rounded of nice restaurants and coffee shops. Although is in the city center, is quiet at night. They also have lockers in good price to leave your baggage in case you need to check out but keep exploring the city until late.
