Comments: It is an awesome place, if you want a place to stay and not a place to be entertained. I had three roommates; one is from Scotland, one from Romania, and one from Armenia. It's definitely a place of diversity. I would recommend it.

Comments: The main gripe I had with the place was that the staff smoked all the time in the hostel. The could also give out better maps other than the toilet paper they hand out.

Comments: the location is not so good, and the kitchen is very very small - so for me it's kinda not the same if you cant really enjoy cooking... But I guess that's what you pay for. The rooms where very clean.

Comments: Hostel is poor, no breakfast is provided, no water in the room. But its a very clean nice place and staff is very friendly. Free internet access. After we checked out we had half- a-day before our train, so we left our bags safely and then returned and could lie in the sun on the roof. Hostel is excellent for its price. Location was convenient for us cause Larisa Station is not far from the hotel. The only thing I didnt like about it was a girl that was sitting with her laptop and speaking phone loudly and uninterruptedly.

Comments: This hostel is a hole in the wall, but clean. The staff is always cleaning the bathroom after someone showers, and the inside is clean. The bathrooms are NOT in the rooms, and there are only 2 bathrooms for 12 rooms!!! The night desk guy is a jerk, and is no help--see the morning and afternoon guy, he knows what hes talking about. You can smoke anywhere and everywhere in this hostel, which for nonsmokers is no fun.

Comments: Reasonably good hostel. It is difficult to find good cheap accommodation in Athens so this one was pretty good considering. They have cockroaches though! Small kitchen, cool rooftop area, and one of the staff (I think he is indian?) is very friendly and helpful. Close to metro station, or you can walk almost anywhere you want to go.

Comments: We were not impressed with one staff member who seemed annoyed when we asked questions. Kitchen is small and full of cockroaches. The location isn't the best, although it is near the metro. I guess you get what you pay for.

Comments: Stayed here for a second time around hoping it would be better. Again received some indescriable bites from what I am not sure. Only happened at this hostel my whole trip. Also located in the Ghettos. I would advise not staying here, there are nicer and cheap places around Acropolys.

Comments: While this hostel was not awful, it certainly was not what I was expecting based on the pictures posted on this website. It is a relatively decent place to crash for the night, but not a place to hang out. Personally, I recommend paying a little bit more to stay at Athens Backpackers -- you're closer to the sites and in a much better facility.

Comments: Location: Two or three minutes walk from metro stop, ten minutes from National Archaeological Museum, not close to much else of interest. Security: No lockers, and wrap-around balcony provides access between rooms. But it didn't feel unsafe. Fine hostel, given how inexpensive it is.

Comments: This hostel was alot nicer than we expected. It was extremely clean the staff were great the location was good. the only thing that put a downer on it was everyone in your room shares one key so security wasnt the best.

Comments: Rooms are clean and little cozy. The staff is there 24/7 so no worries about getting locked out. We left our bags safely with them when going out to the islands. From the hostel you can walk to most of the sites in Athens. The place has free internet including wireless. Other than sometimes having to wait for the shower there is not much to complain about. I would definately stay there again.
