It was clean however you may as well just stay at the backpackers rather than the studios as it was the same set up:4 bunk beds in a room. There was no where to lock things up and was a little out of the way. The breakfast was all the way at the backpackers which was only toast and boiled eggs.The staff at the studios were unprofessional. I would reccomend somewhere else.

I really liked the size of the room we were in, there was plenty of room for our bags and even a small balcony. The rooms were very modern and new with an ensuite & small kitchenette in it.

The place is in a perfect location and the staff can help with everything. It can be a little loud when you are trying to sleep or too hot if you block out the sound. There is a slight ant problem as well. It is not a fancy place but its location is amazing.

The place was nice but be did have a 6th person in the room we weren't informed of. If we knew we would have booked the 6th bed also.

Very convenient for people arriving late in Athens without reservations but I would recommend it only to young backpackers who don't mind sharing a room with anybody liable to do anything like sleeping late, making noise and getting up at 5 in the morning. Toilet not very clean. breakfast on the terrace great with view of Acropolis!

The staff are absolutely amazing and can help you with everything. If you can get to the hostel they can probably get you wherever else you need to go. The place is a little loud at night, which is a pain when it's hot and it's shutting out the noise or getting a cool breeze. Perfect location as well. Couldn't be much closer to the Acropolis and also a nearby metro to get you anywhere else.
