Hostel was clean and tidy, included breakfasts in the morning were good and staff are at the desk 24/7, which is especially nice if solo travelling. Location is a little out of the way though and I found taxis were hard to get via Bolt for this reason.

Everything was wonderful, staff very personable and helpful. I rented the room downstairs and being in the middle of the city you hear city noises but with a good pair of ear plugs, it’s a great location and very nice coffee shop 1 min by foot and great restaurant too. For breakfast, it would be great to have some fruits! Otherwise, the bunk bed rooms: it’s really hard to leave at night as all the lights are out and almost impossible to unlock the door from the inside and bothered all the other women in the bedroom! I feel so sorry that I had to catch a flight that early! A big thank you to all staff as I had a wonderful stay!

Standard hostel. Felt like Unsafe area. Dark and sketchy. Not on the main road. Had to take some twists and turns to get there. Far from the Acropolis. Not within walking distance you would have to take a bus or train. No views of anything. First pic is the view outside of the tiny window in the room. Beds were comfortable. I got bit up by some bugs my guess were mosquitoes (I’m hoping not bedbugs) because I left the window open, it was stuffy and hot in the room I needed ventilation.

Semi private bunks, but could have used curtains. No bed bugs that i could find. Overall a decent stay. Bit of a trek from the main attraction area, but I never felt unsafe. Shower wet the entire bathroom, tiled floors no mats =slippery. I suppose i could have rented a towel to put on the floor.

Cozy & warm hostel

We had a really wonderful stay here! It’s a small & cozy hostel, so it’s probably not for you if you are looking for a crazy party hostel. But for us it was perfect. Room was warm and comfortable, shower was strong. Breakfast is basic but good enough.
Service at the reception was superb and very friendly. Overall really value for money and very homely stay!

Staff are amazing and super helpful, overall the hostel is really nice and exceptional value for money. Main drawbacks are that the wifi barely works, especially at night it's unusable; and the aircon is controlled by staff which can get annoying when coming to the hostel in the afternoon feeling really hot and no aircon.

Great new hostel!

Hostel seemed pretty new. Bathroom was nicer than most hotels. My room had an air conditioning unit and a small balcony. Each bed has its own light, outlets, and USB ports which was great! Common area had really comfy couches. Kitchen was really clean. Hostel was about 10 min walk from the nearest metro station, and there was a supermarket about 3 min away.

Nubian is a convenient hostel just a short walk from Panepistimio metro station. The price for a dorm room is very affordable with a breakfast that is really good and as promised. Individual lights, power outlets and comfortable beds and soft pillows can guarantee you a good stay.

Die Betten sind echt gut. Die Matratzen sind neu und nicht durchgelegen. Man kann gut darauf schlafen. Die Treppe zum Oberen Bett dient gleichzeitig als Sichtschutz für ein bisschen Privatsphäre.
Es ist sehr zentral gelegen.
Das Frühstück besteht aus Toast, Cornflakes, Müsli, griechischem Joghurt, Marmelade und Honig. Kaffee und Tee stehen auch bereit. Abends zwischen 19 und 21 Uhr gibt es freien Wein. Das Personal ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit und deren Englisch ist echt gut.

친절히 도와준 스태프

첫날 도착했을때, 태블릿 pc를 빼앗기고 도둑을 맞게 되었는데, 이것을 본 숙소직원들이 정말 친절하게 도와주었고, 할 수 있는 모든 절차를 해주면서 떠나기까지도 다 도와주었네요
미코노스 섬의 경우, 날씨가 안좋았는데 다시 방을 잡아주었고, 예약도 변경해주었어요
주변에 치안상 골목길에 위치해 있긴한데, 제가 빼앗긴 태블릿은 작정하고 빼앗은거라서 제가 운이 없었던 걸수도 있지만 지나다닐때 신변안전은 주의해야할 것 같네요
