Perfect

The room was very clean, and the bedding was also clean and comfortable. There were lockers with keys available. The blackout curtains provided excellent privacy and created a well-isolated personal space. The café on the first floor had a very nice atmosphere, and the breakfast buffet was excellent.

Bra ställe för ungdomar mellan 18-30 som reser i grupp och gillar högljudd musik på kvällarna.
Pros:

Centralt placerat. Trevlig städpersonal.

Cons:

Jag bodde i ett 4-bäddsrum för kvinnor. Fanns även andra flerbäddsrum och vanliga hotellrum. Som ensamresande äldre var det svårt att lära känna andra gäster. (Detta brukar vara relativt lätt på andra hotell med vandrarhemsliknande karaktär)
En orsak till detta var förmodligen att när jag var där var det en stor grupp arkeologi(?) studerande amerikanska collegestudenter som la beslag på de allmänna områdena på hotellet och hade fullt upp med studierna. Det var svårt att hitta ett lugnt område att sitta och läsa på. På dagtid störde studenterna, på kvällarna var DJ-musiken öronbedövande i alla allmänna områden förutom uppe vid poolen. Tyvärr fanns dynor och kuddar endast utplacerade en av fyra dagar vid poolen (som var iskall i slutet av maj) och cementbänkarna och stålstolarna var relativt kalla och hårda.
De amerikanska studenterna var dessutom högljudda och stod och diskuterade och skrattade länge i korridorerna när de kom hem sent efter midnatt, vilket nog väckte de flesta boende.
Sängarna i flerbäddsrummen passar inte långa eller kraftiga personer eftersom sängarna var relativt korta och smala.
På den positiva sidan: Supertrevlig städpersonal, trevliga kvinnliga receptionister.

It seems to be the best hostel in Athens, where I would definitely like to return.
Pros:

Everything was great - the friendliness of the staff, the location, the atmosphere, the cleanliness.

Cons:

It's a shame the pool was closed for the winter. Then it would have been complete happiness!

The best hostel I have stayed in ever!
Pros:

Everything. This stay was truly out of this world terrific! The staff created a sense of community and joy. The rooms were clean - and cleaned every single day. The co-working space was super comfy, and as an open mezzanine level overlooking the main space I could work and feel connected to music and social gatherings…The main space - with breakfast, lunch and dinner along with live DJ or music each night made me want to come home each day. Truly I hope to stay here again.

Cons:

There was not one thing i can say that I didn’t like.
