Hotel in Athens with a rooftop bar overlooking the Acropolis.
Solution for small budgets and solo travelers: lots of dormitory beds, and a few private rooms. It's decent and well-equipped (kitchenette). The staff speak very good English, to facilitate as many conversations as possible. The atmosphere is reminiscent of a youth hostel, favoring group activities and meetings between travelers. There's a rooftop bar on the5th floor, with a nice view of the Acropolis. There are plenty of restaurants and shops in the area,

I had an amazing time here. The people you meet here are really cool ????. There is a group for everyone, people who just left school, studying at univeristy, or mid 30s like me, I even saw a family checking in. At night, some people just sit, drink, and share their lofe stories, others just quietly check in/out at odd hours getting a shut-eye.
Location is fantastic, walking distance to all of the archaeological sites. There are convenience stores and restaurants all around.
The only negative experience I have is the poor maintenance of some items, like electricity socket, and loose toilet seats (I almost fell after losing my balance ????).
Overall, it is my first and very positive hostel experience.

Nice Hostel in a central location! The rooms where clean and comfortable. I liked the balcony in my room. You'll have a nice view on the street below full of beautiful orange trees. The staff was very friendly and helpful, there was free breakfast and the wifi was good. I can recommend staying there. :)

Nous sommes venus en voyage étudiant avec 40 personnes. Auberge au top, très propre, très bien placée et équipe très aimable. Le ménage est fait tous les jours. Nous avons également apprécié l'happy hour tous les soirs. Nous sommes très satisfaits de cette auberge.

Stayed in the hostel for a total of 8 nights. Here are my thoughts from the stay.
1. Location near the city center and in a safe feeling area. Multiple restaurants and a small supermarket and metro all within 2 minute walk from the hostel.
2. Rooms. I stayed in a 6-bed mixed dorm. Cleaning done daily. Bathroom with a toilet and shower in each room.
3. Friendly and helpful staff.
4. Easy to socialize with others ex. during happyhour.
5. The common area could be a bit bigger, especially when eating breakfast the space feels a bit small.
6. The balcony could maybe have 1 or 2 chairs or stools to sit on.
7. Beds do not have curtains in them, however they have a reading light and a power outlet. Bed itself is alright.
8. The breakfast selection could be a bit wider but all in all its 7,5/10.
9. Walls are thin.
TLDR: Good social hostel in a good area. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

Personale sempre di cattivo umore (sembra che i sorrisi si paghino) e avverso alla clientela. Ho lasciato la borsa incustodita al bar per una decina di minuti e dopo aver chiesto aiuto al bartender perché ormai era smarrita, mi è stata restituita con il portafoglio all’interno aperto e la carta di credito fuori posto: ho dovuto bloccare la carta. Quando ho comunicato l’accaduto alla reception sono stata messa in cattiva luce davanti a tutto il locale. Non ritornerò.
