Terrible hotel
This was terrible. I showed up in the evening of my booking. It was dark, in a sketchy neighbourhood. I got to the hostel where they didn't have any record of my stay. The manager got the owner on the phone who told me that the electricity and and the water in the apartment I had booked was out. Why didn't they text me to let me know? They made me go to a really horrible hotel for the night and then the next day didn't respond to my calls or what's app messages. Finally I had to call Hotels.com to get them to refund my money. I wasted an entire day of my vacation looking for a decent place to stay.
DONT BOOK THIS PLACE!!

Mostly good place.
The hostel is a little different from others. The owner? was very nice and greeted me with water. Personable guy. There is no reception desk and coming later may be an issue but the owner was always around. Did hear the bell ring late at night. He was around the hostel a lot and helped people with advice. This is a small place with just a few rooms. The room was nice with curtains on beds, nice outlet location and lockers. The AC blew cold. The owner took my laundry and did it for 5€. The kitchen is small but clean. The men’s bathroom was a little odd. You had to walk through the shower area to get to the toilets so if someone is showering you can’t really use them. So few rooms that it wasn’t a huge deal though. The woman’s bathroom looked a lot nicer. The location in my opinion is not the most ideal. Feels a bit dirty around. There is a bus stop right outside that heads to the city center and the acropolis easily but getting back was always more of an issue. Took metro from airport and then walked about 12 minutes. Not too bad. Nice, big super market right near but. A few good restaurants. Cheap gyros but away from city center some. Wouldn’t be my top location for a long stay but worked for a few nights before the islands. The hostel itself is very clean. Beds comfortable.

They have a very competent, friendly, professional, and helpful staff. They maintain a clean environment which is tastefully decorated with plenty of free travel literature on Athens. They also provide free Wi-Fi, delicious snacks, travel coaches and have modern amenities. We would recommend this special place not only for the price, but because of the unique experience we had with them. We would give them 5 stars any day! Thank you all aboard the Thanasis-Andreas Crew!

Desprolijo
Muy desprolija la estancia. Reserve 2 noches, desayuno y cena incluido para 2 adultos y un niño. Al llegar me dijeron que solo les figuraban 2 adultos en la reserva. En La segunda noche cuando llegamos ya habian abierto el locket para darselo a otra persona...y nos cambiaron de habitacion...nos dieron solo una cama de dos plazas para que durmamos los tres. El desayuno y la cena nunca existio. No se si es problema de la aplixacion o del hospedador...nunca nos habia pasado algo asi. Horrible que hayan sacado las cosas del locket(que habiamos dejado con candado).
Muy amable el encargado Ali. Pero el resto muy raro
