Staff were very polite and effective. Location is very convenient. They have some nice ancillary spaces like a back garden and extras like free breakfast and wine and such. And that's about where we end.
The bunk assembly is weird. I cannot imagine the stairs to upper bunks being easy to climb on. The private bathroom has just no space around the toilet it's really uncomfortable. Lack of privacy curtains in bunks or on the main window of the room. Ventilation and climate control left a lot to be desired. A barrier in the window of some sort might be better/required. Lastly lockers exist, are spacious and with the lock built in and key provided, but they're fixed in place and it's strange

In my favorite (non-touristic) area in Athens, lots of cute cafes and bars nearby. I met inspiring and kind people there, and the employees were also very friendly and helpful. I was very happy to find a small hostel in such a big city and not have to go to an impersonal party hostel. I liked that breakfast was included. I think it’s the best hostel I could have found in Athens.
Sadly no curtains on the beds. The facilities were a bit old (but clean!). Not many people used the kitchen so there weren’t a lot of staples.

Well run hostel. Climatisation, patio, basic but sufficient breakfast, very pleasant and helpfull staff. Free map of Athens. Super comfortable beads, well designed room. I did miss free wine - I was away at the time, but must have been great:). Did like the decoration, especially friendly giraffe and the plants in the patio. Very clean. Courtain to seclude the bed would be easy done and very appretiated addition (I did improvise my own and was happy with that). Location pretty good, but still some walk to the center. Incredibly quiet. Woud be happy to use again.
Arrived close to midnight - as well as several others, so it took about half an hour to get checked in.

This hostel has the main advantage of the location! My priority was to have decent place connected to metro, not too expensive, since it was a short stay. One of the best assets are staff, everyone is excellent, Kosta in particular, and the girl, curly dark hair, I don't know her name. Beds are fairly comfortable, you will have good sleep.
But of course, there is always room for improvemet. For Nubian hostel, I would say, lavatories are kept clean in common areas and shared bathrooms, which is great, but my oppinion is, it should be same in rooms with private bathrooms. Evetything else is great!

The staff is amazing, the space is super cool, and the breakfast is good. I particularly love the option of having games to play and a daily event for the people at the hostel. I even got a date with a person who was staying there as well. Of course, the biggest highlight is that staff bring their dogs to stay in the hostel during the day. Amazing place!
I can't say it was bad, but I'm a midsize woman and the bathroom was really small for me. The shower was good, but if I were a little bigger I wouldn't fit inside it. Just a recommendation to other midsize women who book the female dorm!

Beautiful hostel located in the student district of Exarcheia. Conveniently located for the "Panepistimio" subway station for those who want to use public transportation but also for those who'd rather walk: places of historical and artistic interest are about half an hour's walk. The staff is friendly and helpful in giving any information you need. Cleanliness is good, beds extremely comfortable with a power outlet and a lamp next to them. Locker and sheets are included in the booking, the breakfast is minimal but enough, and the common areas are very welcoming and comfortable. Overall, excellent value for money. Highly recommended for backpackers and others :)

Located very central and close to EVERYTHING, which I loved since it made walking places easier or traveling in general. Bed was very comfy and I love the small balcony we had. Place was also pretty clean.
Breakfast was my biggest thing. Yes it was included but they should do better because all they had was cereal, coffee, juice, yogurt, and bread. Terrible in my opinion.

It’s located around a 20 min-walk from Syntagma, which is indeed awesome to take any kind of transportation, and 25/30 min-walk from the Acropolis and other sites. The area is really nice, there are bars and restaurants, also the supermarkets are super close. The staff is really nice and friendly, and always ready to help you or give you useful tips. The reception works 24 hrs, which is nice if you arrive later than expected.
There is no laundry within the hostel, and the wifi in the area hasn’t been working quite good lately so the connection inside wasn’t great. I hope it gets solved!

Great location, comfortable beds. Breakfast is basic but did the job! The staff were so so helpful. I found I could mostly walk everywhere (if it wasn’t so hot). Really enjoyed the social gathering. Met many lovely travellers. We all then dined out till midnight.
The top bunks are high. Just be careful if you are older or have knee issues.

nostalgic hostel breakfast, very nice staff, comfy clean beds, nice communal spaces
I used the shared bathroom and there were no place where I could hang or put my stuff when taking my shower. Also other visitors leave the toilet in a bad state, but this is not the staff’s fault. It was also cleaned daily
