- Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.2Superb - What previous guests thought, 2,730 reviewsBest hostel I’ve stayed exactly like pictures, close metro station that goes direct to airport, close to many historical sites including Acropolis and different Agora. Dormitory has private bathroom and they are all very clean. Bedding is comfortable. Strong air conditioning. Staff are extremely helpful and friendly, would definitely stay again if back at Athens.Guest review byFang-TzuSolo traveller
- Avg. price/night: US$49.33Scored out of 10, guest rating 7.2Good - What previous guests thought, 2,437 reviewsThe hostel provides a cheap place to sleep in a convenient location in the centre of Athens. The facilities are fairly clean and the staff are fairly helpful. There are washing and left luggage facilities. The Omonia area is not as threatening as some people would have you believe and the immediate vicinity of the hostel felt safe.Guest review byVincentSolo traveller
- Scored out of 10, guest rating 6.1Pleasant - What previous guests thought, 749 reviewsCozy hostel, friendly staff. Great way to travel on a budget and meet new people. Plenty of common areas, and that perfect view from the terrace - definitely worth a stay. Bed was comfy. Bathrooms nice and clean. Such a lovely cleaning lady attended every morning. Great location too - just 5 minutes walk from one of the 3 surrounding metro stations. Plenty of large and small corner shops, coffee and food places around the area. Would stay again without thinking twice. Thanks for a pleasant experience!Guest review byAurelijaSolo traveller
