OK so this hostel is awesome but it's a short walk away from the tourist areas. Here you will experience 'true athens' the local bars and food is so much better than you will get at the tourist traps. The locals are friendly and very much welcome, however the area may not be everyone's cuppa, it depends what you want I guess.. The hostel it self has great communal areas and such great staff, a very vibrant and social experience. Look out for their events and try the pizza... 👍🏻

Shiny marbles, yes—but the rooms are tiny, crammed with beds, and there’s absolutely no space for your luggage. The toilets and showers are equally small and uncomfortable. I stayed in February when the weather was really cold. The hostel was nearly empty, yet the owner decided to squeeze all guests into just two rooms and refused to turn the heaters on. We were absolutely freezing at night. The whole place is covered in CCTV cameras. The owner—mid-to-late 40s, wearing acetate glasses—and his assistant, a man with a moustache around the same age, seemed to be constantly monitoring the footage. It felt creepy like they were perving on the guests. To top it off, there’s loud noise from the bar next door, so don’t expect a good night’s sleep. I stuck it out for the five nights I had prepaid, then immediately moved to another hostel. Never again.
