the hostel itself is great. the people running it are very friendly and will give you recommendations for the city. however, the area it’s located in is quite ugly and filled with people living in the street which as a solo traveler can be quite scary.

Wonderful oasis of beauty, safety and calm in a neighborhood that is scuzzy, but convenient for exploring the city. Friendly, helpful staff. Nice courtyard bar. It was fun to socialize with fellow guests as well as staff. I would stay there again if I were to go back to Athens.

Amazing Hostel!
Amazing hostel, very close to a metro that connects to most of Athens. Clean and had a great vibe about it! The staff are welcoming and very friendly. They offer great help with sightseeing in Athens and tips for places to eat, you can also order food through their website to the hostel. Their bar and lounge area was a good place to meet new people and have fun. On my first night we were 7 people who ended up going out together. The only downside is that in the area of the hostel there are quite a few homeless people which might make it uncomfortable for some solo travelers but that’s not on the hostel of course.
