ATHENS BACKPACKERS

A hostel located just under the hill of Acropolis next to the homonym museum in a very quiet street.
Very kind personnel, excellent place to be and enjoy Athens.

Great location, great people, great staff. Nice free breakfast, fun happy hour.
Bathrooms are a bit damp but other than that all good.

Nefasta. Toallas sucias, calefacción que no funcionava, desayuno pobre y te obligan a limpiar los platos. No hay secador en la habitación. La habitación estava sucia.El ascensor no cumple la normativa (no tiene puerta de seguridad). Es una estafa.

Don’t stay here. It’s not safe or secure.

I feel violated but our room was ransacked and I had 140 euros stolen from my locked locker and my 3 friends staying in the same 4 bed room had AirPods, an iPhone, €300 Bose wireless headphones and a €500 rain jacket stolen, total of 1400 euros gone. We had items stolen from 2 locked lockers and the thief somehow got past our personal key locks. A stranger entered our room while we were out by using a key code they got from the unsecured front desk computer. The staff were able to pull up a record of the times the door was opened and we have proof that it was opened when we weren’t there, yet they could not identify the thief and told us straight up that they could do nothing about it. We did not leave our key code out or showed any strangers our room key code - we kept it safe or used the app. We informed the staff immediately once we noticed but they could not do anything but empathize with us and it was my friends birthday! The security could be greatly improved I didn’t feel safe and the lock system on the lockers is not adequate. It’s a thin wire that doesn’t line up. There were no cameras in the hallway. Luckily my iPad wasn’t stolen for work since it was in my backpack in the secured locker but my friends Bose headphones were in her backpack in a locked locker and were stolen. Anyone can cut this “lock” system. 3 other random rooms had approximately 500 euros stolen on the same day and a pair of nice shoes.

They need a shower curtain to keep the water in otherwise when you shower water goes everywhere and it’s a slip and fall hazard. There needs to be more hooks in the bathrooms for towels since they do not provide paper towels after you wash your hands. There is only one hook for 4 beds. A chair in each room would be nice for the people staying on the top bunk to sit on while putting on shoes since they don’t want you sitting on other people’s bed. They also advertised a roof top bar but it was just a roof deck that was only open from 6-9pm and there was no bar. Apparently it’s open in the summer but they don’t say that in the advertisement and all the photos are of the bar so it’s deceiving.

I don’t feel safe here.

Прийшов час???? Вибирала по розміщенню і за вид з хостела... Вид не отримала - закритий, бо не сезон вже... Хоча готові були показати)
Розміщення, майже, перекрило всі недоліки, що напишу нижче!...
Номер, з першого погляду, чистий... Але за матрасами щілини і між стінами з ліжком - пилюки та хламу повно... Це навіть не спеціально знайдеш, якщо щось завалиться...
Зламаний був змив в туалеті, що доводилось вставати, щоб якось припинити звуки унітазу та погано стікала раковина...
Прибирається щодня... Але поверхнево... Проблеми бачили - не вирішили... Номери на коді, але то код полетів у сусіда, то заблочило мій код...
Шафка зламана... Що не зламана, то треба на табуретку вставати, щоб достати... Або неможливо закрити на замок...
Шум та гам... Якщо Вам подобається нічне життя, то підійде для Вас! Для людини жайворонка зовсім не добре... Спасали маска та беруші????
Сніданок - скудний та однотипний... Хоча продукти смачні!
Самі працівники - привітні! Але сподіваюсь, що сервіс підтягнеться...!
