Bedbox Hostel is a gem!💎 As a 32-year-old solo male traveler, I found it perfect for my winter Athens adventure. The location is super central, near Monastiraki metro, making it easy to explore. The dorms were clean and the beds were comfy with privacy curtains. The staff were friendly and helpful, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Free luggage storage and a well-equipped kitchen were great facilities. Overall, it is a fantastic and affordable stay in the heart of Athens. Highly recommend! 👍

The ladder of my bed was removed by someone else, let alone didn't even have any guard rail. However, it's far better than sleeping on a street, and the bathroom was nice and clean.

The hostel is located 15 minutes from the Monastiraki metro station. The hostel provides a shuttle bus to the airport, it needs to be booked a day in advance. The hostel itself occupies the entire entrance to the roof. There is a bar on the roof and a large terrace on all sides of the building. They remove badly. The hostel is dirty, no one really cleaned the showers, only the garbage will be taken out and the floor will be wiped. The bed linen has already been made, only sheets from the blanket. From the air conditioner and the window was blowing, there was nothing to hide. The pillows are very uncomfortable and damp. Slept without a pillow and ended up wearing a sweatshirt. The room was large, but crowded with beds. I don’t know why it happened, my neighbors from the USA and Australia practically didn’t go anywhere and generally stayed in the room all day. They fell asleep and vomited. Why the stench in the room was incredible from sweat, stuffiness, vomit. The shower bath is always stuffy and damp, there is a small window. Drawers for things are located right next to the shower door, which makes it very inconvenient to use them, they are far from the beds. There were a lot of mosquitoes in the room, I had a fumigator with me, it helped. All night people went back and forth, I practically did not sleep, every day I was broken. They give you a free shot upon check-in. Prices at the bar are moderate, aperol and mojito for 8 euros. The breakfast is rich, there are eggs and fruits, bread, jam and oatmeal, payment at the bar on the same floor. Free drinking water at the bar, it's convenient to fill the bottle. It was unpleasant to be in the room, so after sightseeing I sat in the lounge area, where the kitchen is. Worked there, wi-fi catches well. You can order dinner in the kitchen, I have never taken it, but I saw it, they say that it is tasty and convenient, you don’t have to go anywhere. They rent towels. The area itself is located somewhere in the backyard, it’s very scary to walk in the evening, there are only construction sites, abandoned buildings, parking lots and Pakistani-Indian establishments around. There are no women walking around the area at all. The photo is a view from the roof.

This was my first time staying in a hostel, as well as staying in a 6 bed mixed dorm, so I was a bit unsure at first but that changed from the second I got there. The staff and everyone that I met there were just great and so friendly! The rooftop bar was simply amazing! Not even a 2 seconds up there and you meet a whole bunch of new friends from all over the world. Oh! Not to forget the great view you get of the Acropolis from the roof top at night! Without a doubt, I will be staying here again when I come back to Athens! Thankyou for making my solo trip here something to remember

If I come to Greece again, this accommodation will still be my favorite choice. A clean public space where you can relax your mind and chat with other travelers. Close to the subway station, good location! You can see the quiet Greek Acropolis from the top floor!

Amazing
AAnonymous UserLocation is convenient from Omonia station. good walking distance to acropolis and main center. The front desk staff are friendly and nice. There’s a lift but small flight of stairs up, also with assisted stairclimber. Nice pantry area to gather and make friends, or cook if you want. I booked a private room and while it’s a very huge size, there’s not much in the room. No desk, no hairdryer. The lockers are stacked on top of each other. In theory it’s ok, but what about shorter people? Why would I need lockers for a private room? (I know it’s a hostel yes, but this is a private twin room.) it should have been like a small hanging wardrobe or if the lockers need to be there it should be side by side on the floor. I also didn’t like the toilet is just one massive room. No sections for showering. The water just gets to the toilet bowl side easily. There should at least have been an elevated shower pedestal so water is kept in that area. I understand that this is a hostel, but for private rooms, shouldn’t it feel more like a hotel or Airbnb? Which should have basic things like a hairdryer etc (they don’t). Not very thoughtful when it comes to housekeeping - my toilet roll ran out, and they didn’t replace it. I dropped my towel on the floor to be replaced, it was hung back on the rack. It’s a dirty towel! Overall very disappointing with the light touches of the hotel. I didn’t spend cheap money for this, should have looked around more for what I paid.

Nnabiki2The location is very close to a main square and many streets lined with restaurants, also walkable to important sites. The location also provides a nice view from the rooftop bar (see the photo). The location is great! I marked the it low because being so central and close to all the main restaurants and bars also meant that there were extremely loud drunk people yelling in the street all night long. Bring your ear plugs or find somewhere that’s slightly farther away from the main drag. Clean and tidy, somewhat comfortable, there are lockers in the room if you bring your own lock. If you plan to drop off your bag before check in or leave it after, there are storage lockers for a fee that are somewhat confusing to operate. The front desk attendant assisted me.
