07 February 2011 Kate would recommend this property

Liked: We were only here a short time. but its LOCATION IS FABULOUS! We were literally across the road from the Acropolis, up the road from the cheapest shopping ever in PLaka and the best retails shopping street - i forget the name -...only thing we were not near was the clubbing area and people staying at the hostel said the subway was dangerous at night. instead we drank on the rooftop bar (which ahs view of the acropolis all lit up) and went on to a kareoke bar which the bartenders invted everyone to and HAD A BLAST! met so many fantastic people! The free breaky is amazing! they have hard boiled eggs and even vegemite! :)

Disliked: The only thing was when we took a cab from the port is that it was hard for the taxi driver to find, as the main street its behind is a pedestrian only walkway. We spent a good 40mins asking store owners nearby where it was and finally figured it out because we saw young people who were actually staying there. so we were dragging our suitcases everywhere! I would suggest a concise map - even so tourists can show cab drivers this is where you want to go.

01 February 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Big rooms, bathroom and cooking facilities in the room! Good cheap bars to drink at in the hostels (there are 2 locations only about 2 minutes walk between them). It seemed to be quite a new hostel so everything was really nice and clean, we had a balcony!

Disliked: The cleaner threw out my friends shoes!! They were quite nice shoes too not even old dirty ones! Also one of the rooms on the floor below was leaking water into the hallway and when we walked past we slipped over, were lucky not to land on the stairs!
