“a lovely hostel in a great location”

10.0

07 Jan 2025

Excellent location, only a few minutes' walk to the Acropolis. The room is modern and cozy and has a small balcony. The hostel is on a side road, so it's quiet at night. The breakfast is very good. You can meet and chat with other travelers in the common room or the roof garden with a view of the Acropolis.

Actually, It's one of the best properties I've stayed in, The location is near to Acropoli Museum and I have spent one day there, I recommend visiting such a great place which magnify the civilization of Greece, the location is so near to Syntagma metro station and it's facilitate the movement in the city. When it comes to Hotel facilities, It's a wonderful, The breakfast is more than great, there are verities of food including Bacon, Cheddar, milk, juices, coffee, eggs, many kinds of jams and Nutella, Oats with milk. and Fruits. I didn't stay in such property like that before! The room was spotless with balcony. The staff are very friendly, They helped me when I asked to extend my stay, and even when I tried to check-out, They put me in the same room with Spanish guys and others from New Zealand. It was really a nice experience.
