I like the fact that it is situated in a very safe, centrally located deep in the heart of Monastiraki district. The staff are friendly and helpful. The room where I stayed is clean and provided me with enough storage space to store my belongings, The kitchen is clean and spacious. This would be my hostel of choice if I decide to go back to Athens.

The room matches the photos perfectly, clean, and at an unbeatable price. The only small downside is the plumbing. Typical for Greece, but drainage is not fully efficient. There are some noisy backups when upper floors use their water. It might wake you up if you are a light sleeper (not my case). The staff is very welcoming, and the owners love interacting with guests. We had a wonderful stay!

The hostel location was excellent, close to tourist attractions, a lot of restaurants, bus and metro. The stuff was nice but my private.room was very noisy because of people at the first floor and during the night I heard noises also. I had to use plugs to sleep. The room should be. isolated and it's not good for people with light sleep like me. There was no soap, shampoo and conditioner that you use to have in all lodgings.

I don’t stay at hostels often, but Bedbox and its wonderful staff made it easy to get comfortable. The place is very clean and is cleaned multiple times a day. The location is great - all of central Athens and the acropolis is within a quick enjoyable walk (20 mins tops).

The staff are very helpful and went out of their way to make sure I was happy. Constantina is amazing! Highly recommend for a backpacker/hostel experience.

Danisa (sp), the front desk/coffee bar extraordinaire was amazing!!! She was a fountain of information and her recommendations were on point. I had a great meal and was able to get some shopping done. I was given information on transportation options for heading to the airport in the middle of the night. She made me an iced coffee that was better than Starbucks. The room was nice and quiet. The locker was huge and I was able to store all my luggage with plenty of room left. The location gave me dining options and shopping options. My only suggestion is to have the option of early check-in or at least have the option to be able to grab a shower. After traveling over 24 hours it would have been nice to get a shower and head out for the day. I would have paid extra for the privilege. Overall, it was a great experience. I would definitely stay here again. The staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful. The place was clean and quiet. The bed was comfortable and I was able to get some decent sleep.

Great Hosel

As a solo 46F traveler that has been staying in hostels for over 20 years, I have to say Bedbox is one of the best! Great location, very clean, several small hang out spots from the basement to the roof, comfy beds with curtains!, large storage boxes with locks provided, and decent bathrooms with 3 clean showers per floor (towels for rent). But it is the staff that really makes it! Constantina was so helpful, remembered my name and was a genuinely nice host. The other staff members (mother and son) were super friendly and fun, and generous with a free glass of wine and ouzo. There was also a free pizza party one night. It definitely isn't a party hostel, but more of a family feeling where being social happens naturally. Great advice for restaurants and sightseeing also by the staff. Can't wait to return to Athens and stay here as a jumping off point to explore the islands.

I’ve stayed in a number of hostels before and this is probably the best one yet!! For location, it’s in a very convenient spot near Monastiraki station, and within walking distance from many attractions in Athens. I felt safe walking back alone at night. As for the hostel itself, it was very clean, beds were very comfortable with privacy curtains and with thick blankets for the winter, and there were nice spots to relax and meet other travellers. The kitchen was also well equipped. The staff were also very very friendly and helpful, and made the stay even more pleasant!! Had a really great stay (-:

Bedbox was great. It was very clean, with free coffee, tea and cookies 24/7. He staff was professional and helpful yet fun and engaging. Being a narrow building some of the rooms have just 2 bunk beds separated by thick courtains to give more privacy. The beds themselves were comfortable and big by hostel standards, also featuring a privacy courtain, individual light and spacious safe box (lock included). There even was a spacious balcony to relax over coffee or a drink. The location was good, fairly close to Syntagma Square and Plaka. All in all a very good deal for the price. Thanks Bedbox!

Great, modern hostel in a central location. 5 minutes walk to a metro station. Walking distance to most tourist sites. Close to restaurants and bars. The staff are very friendly and helpful. They speak good English. The coffee (available for only 1 euro) is better than most coffees you get from a cafe. Free ouzo on Sunday nights is a nice touch (there are other activities/freebies every night of the week). Bedrooms are good, with proper privacy curtains and comfortable mattresses (my only complaint would be that the bedroom door and people's lockers were very noisy).

One of the best places I've stayed in my life ^-^

I had an amazing time at Bedbox, the hostel is easy to find, very close to Monastiraky square, restaurants, bars and everything you need.
The staff are so nice and kind, the place is very clean and there is great enviroment and vibe to it.
WiFi is working great everywhere, great beds, lockers, very nice rooms.
One of the best places I've stayed in my life. ^-^

* I've read a lot of comments stating that there's a bad neighborhood not far, and it's true, walked there in night alone (accidentally). It's a little creepy but heavily monitored and policed.
Also Omonia square area is a little dodgy, would recommend to travel in day time if you're solo female traveller.

Good hostel in a great location

This hostel was pretty good and the location can't be beat. The beds have privacy curtains and each person is provided with a lock to one of the huge lockers in the room.

The couple of not so good things about this hostel is that they charge you for towels and the bathrooms are a bit tight (each floor houses 12 people who share a bathroom with 3 stalls and 3 showers).

All in all it wasn't a bad stay and I would consider staying here again.

By far the best hostel I've ever booked! Highly recommended for females traveling solo! The location is super convenient and safe. The rooms are exceptionally clean and comfortable. There is laundry, computers and a bar. On top of that, they have the best staff. They are locals and never hesitated to help. I was sick and they took care of me as if I was a family member. After a month backpacking solo, I can say that Athen was my favorite city, not only for the beautiful views and its history, but specially because of the staff members of this hostel. Richie, Monica and Aphrodite, thanks for making my time in Athens so special. I miss you, and I hope to be back soon!
