Iconic Athens Hostel in Athens

Couldn’t get any sleep due to hard mattress and street noise, party street and traffic noise right outside the bedroom.

Otherwise nice layout, very friendly and helpful staff.

It was okay for the price I guess. Before I arrived I got an email from the property that their check in would be closed from 8-11 pm and to email them if I would be arriving during this time and they’d give me the self check in instructions. I was planning on arriving before 8 but when my flight was delayed I emailed them. Never got a response. I waited until 11 pm and rang the doorbell a few times. No response. Then I called and reached the front desk and told him I was there. He let me in and told me I should have rung the doorbell. I told him I rung it repeatedly and either it doesn’t work or nobody answered. I told him I waited until 11 since the front desk was closed and he told me (very rudely and argumentatively) that the front desk is always open. I don’t know why he would tell me this and I would get an email the day before saying it’s closed. Anyway the stay was fine. I had heard reviews of bedbugs and I didn’t get bed bugs. The location is perfect. I was driving and there’s free and plentiful parking out front. Very close to the metro station and bars and restaurants are just 2 minutes walk away. My cubby had some stains on the wall like liquid that had dripped down and dried. I noticed the toilet had some stains in it which happens but it was still there the next day so I don’t think someone cleans it every day. It was kinda grungy overall but it was very cheap and I didn’t get bed bugs so I can’t complain too much

They have fleas and bedbugs

I had nearly 50 insect bites on my body, and the bed was changed the next day, but it was still the same. But the front desk service was very good. They helped me change the bed and get medicine. I hope they can do a good job in pest control.
