Dioskouros Hostel

Trotz der Bereitschaft, das Zimmer nach der ersten Nacht zu wechseln (die erste war unbewohnbar), hat sich nichts geändert. Dreckiges Zimmer voller Sandfliegen (auch wenn es uns einen mückenabweisenden Ofen gegeben hat), Fensterläden, die nicht schließen, Betten mit Federn, die zwischen den Rippen zu rutschen scheinen. Soweit es mich betrifft, zu vermeiden.

-Great location in Plaka, near restaurants, sights and metro -Charming building with a cute garden/outdoor area. -I stayed for one night in a female dormitory room. It was very basic but clean. The bed was ok considering I only slept there for 6 hours. -Bathroom area was good -Very quiet, although the main street is very close -Felt safe although I shared the room and bathroom with strangers -Didn't have breakfast because I had to leave early but the breakfast area looked nice. All in all it was decent for the money I paid for (25 euro).

Excellent hostel right by Acropolis easy to explore all the ancient sites on foot. Close to good places to eat. Rooms clean and comfortable and well laid out. Good mattress. Wifi good. Showers good. All recently refurbished and nicely done. Breakfast includes fresh coffee fresh oranges, Greek yoghurt and pastries. Staff extremely helpful and easy to contact. Would stay there again and recommend. Thank you George and David for such a comfortable and welcoming stay.

We booked a private room, with bathroom incl. but the manager suggested we take the room on the ground floor as our luggage was heavy. It was a very basic room but clean which was great. Very clean sheets provided, no blankets, which in the heatwave would have been fine. Unfortunately, the aircon remote was broken and we absolutely froze during the night. Also the showers down the passage were very clean but no hook in the one shower meant I had to lean out to get my towel in full view of the passage as there’s no door on the outside of the shower cubicle. Just on the cubicle itself. I‘d give it 4 ⭐️ if I knew the aircon remote worked and I could use the other shower. It’s very central and staff are exceptionally friendly.

We stayed at Dioskouros on our last night in Athens. The host, George, was kind enough to arrange a taxi for us for our early 4:30am departure from Plaka to the airport. The room was comfortable, and had all the amenities you'd expect at a hostel. The outdoor lounge area was roomy, with indoor and outdoor seating, and the communal kitchen was well stocked. This Hostel in Plaka is close to many sites, including restaurants, shops, etc. My only complaint is that it has been difficult to contact them by phone for some items that were left behind. I could not find an email address directly for them, and there has been no response from them on social media messages I've sent. However, If I'm in Athens again, I'd definitely consider staying with them again. (Maybe I can reclaim my items!!)

Très très moyen, à la limite du médiocre. Chambre en sous-sol, pour 3 personnes, avec un lit superposé qui fait un bruit du tonnerre lorsque l'on est couché, et sans barrière de protection, une chaise pour 3, et un gobelet sale avec mégot de cigarette pour 3. Peu de place pour ranger ses affaires, on est resté 4 nuits, aucun passage en chambre pour le nettoyage, des serviettes usées. Un petit déjeuner plus que moyen, très peu de choix, pas de micro ondes pour chauffer son lait, et croissant en sachet immangeable. Quelques avantages : sa situation, sa cour intérieure très calme, et un personnel sympa.
