It's just a few minute walk to Acropolis which I found great! The room has a locker but doesn't provide the lock for you. When I went there the kitchen was re-licensing or something so you can't cook there for now.

Extremely friendly and helpful staff - Clean and well organised rooms - Various activities/trips organised - Location is ideal too, very central and close to metro with views of the Acropolis. Some form of lockers in the rooms would be ideal, though

Its location was fantastic - from a tourist point of view for the sites, but also for ease of reaching via the Metro from the Airport - one is always somewhat tired and vulnerable and a place that one can access without too much thought or hassle is just what one needs!

Great location in a really nice part of Athens and close to restuarants, shops and sights. Helpful staff, ok dorms however bathrooms pretty feral and only get cleaned once a day so they get very dirty. Also the breakfast is very disappointing and runs out by 9am

The studios were immaculate. And airconditioning in Greek weather was a welcome sign. Bathroom was spotless which is a huge must. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly which made things alot easier for us non-Greek speaking travellers. Hostels location was too convenient. The streets were lined with great cafes and the best bit came with the rooftop bar having an actual view of the Acropolis. Truly icing on the cake.
