The combination of hotel-style privacy and hostel-style community is particularly clever, and I admire the attention to detail, from workspaces to vegetarian-friendly meals.

friendly team quiet street comfortable haven difficult screen awkward balcony missing screening
sophia and the team made everything special. the location felt just right, a quiet street only minutes from everything. the king room, it felt modern and spacious, a really comfortable haven after long days.
The projector screen in the room proved difficult. i spent too much time trying to work it. the shared balcony lacked privacy. The absence of proper screening felt a little awkward.

loved the rooftop pool!

comfortable mattress privacy curtain rooftop pool
i stayed in a dorm room. my stay felt very luxurious, you get the amenities of a hotel for an affordable hostel price. it was very clean with comfortable mattresses and great curtains on the beds. the curtains provide you with a feeling of complete privacy. there's even a common kitchen. i loved the rooftop pool with views over the whole city and of the acropolis, and the downstairs bar with very nice cocktail creations.
the food i ordered at lunch time took a long time to come. it tasted lovely but the portions were small compared to all the other places i ate.

Decent Stay with Some Issues

helpful staff rooftop pool loud music common area
The rooftop pool was awesome. I liked that the place had everything we needed. The staff were amazing and always helpful.
The common areas are not ideal for socializing. They are more focused on serving the restaurant and guests coming from outside the hotel. The music in the lobby was excessively loud in the evenings.
