Comfortable beds and a good size ensuite dorm room with a small balcony. The ensuite bathroom was high quality. There is a kitchen to cook for yourself. The location is great. Large locker for guests in each room. USB (not C type) power point at bed. Plenty of information at reception.
The fridge needs to be replaced with a modern one. The fridge is old. It wasn't that cold and the coldest section was the upper freezer section. It was also quite dirty. Unfortunately I stayed when it was quiet and, despite the hostel putting on social events, there weren't any guests who wanted to socialise in the large lounge. Bunk beds are a bit low and no curtain.

Staff are amazing - friendly, welcoming, professional and have a wonderful ‘can do’ approach when it comes to any queries or issues that may arise. The property itself is a little maze of rooms , some quirky circus touches around the place which makes it quite interesting. has communal areas with tables/ chairs and lounges where you can sit and use laptops, chat, watch TV or relax. Definitely make your way to the top floor and the rooftop terrace with its views of the Acropolis! Location is excellent and you’re surrounded by great places to eat, drink and soak up the atmosphere.
Overall I throughly enjoyed my stay - what I failed to realise (and it was entirely my oversight) was that the room was split level with the bedroom upstairs and bathroom/ sofa downstairs (my fault entirely) If you had any mobility issues (I had injured my knee just prior to travelling) it could be a big challenge as it’s a tiny, spiral staircase. The staff were very accomodating and made up the sofa bed for me to help. Space in the bedroom area I was in was very tight as every inch is utilised to the maximum so read descriptions carefully to avoid any misunderstandings

The location is incredible
You can hear everything inside the building. The good thing is that if you use earplugs you are fine

I would appreciate the staff most, they were very nice. Also the overall cleanliness and the fact they organized the activities each day except for Monday.
I would benefit from more hooks or places where I could lay/store my belongings. The beds were not that private - there was no curtain. The Psirri/Monastiraki location is dirty and smelly. A lot of shops/restaurants on the way are not open unpredictably. It is a relatively small hostel, so not many travelers - but those who were there were nice. If the air condition is on, the cover blanket might not be enough to feel warm. The windows were closed all the time and there was little light in the room. Good if you want to sleep, but bad if you want to read. You still have your personal light though.

I like the Location the most , It wasn’t a struggle to find the hostel at all with the guidance of the staff and because it’s near the metro station. The area is safe and the people I met at the hostel were kind. As my first time trying a hostel sharing room With others it was quite a good experience. You also get discounts on so many restaurants around by showing the hostel card ;) . Would like to thank the staff there for their welcoming and kindness too.
Everything was good except the noise that comes from the hardwood floor, but that’s itself of no account especially if u there for a short stay .

Location was great, central without being in a main road. Instructions from the train station were really clear and directed me through well lit and populated areas even when arriving close to midnight. The shower was fantastic - pressure and temperature were excellent (had a not so great experience somewhere else recently). Everything was clean and in good repair. Very helpful staff, held my bag for a few hours afters check out and were happy for me to use the lounge and wifi after checkout. All very friendly staff with special thanks to Tyrion. I highly recommend City Circus.
Nothing I can think of

The location was great, we did most of the sightseeing by foot. In the check-in the reception guy was super nice and gave us a map of Athens and a recommendation of where to go as well as a list of all the recommended restaurants in the area, this was a game changer. The breakfast was with an additional charge at the restaurant connected to the hostel and the breakfast was not great... However, the lunch and dinner menu looked better, and you even get a discount if you eat another meal there. I would recommend reserving a table if you want to go for dinner or late lunch because we didn't and there was no room. The hostel also offered different activities like movie night and happy hour. Overall I would recommend it.
The breakfast wasn't the best

Awesome location in a neighborhood close to a bunch of nice restaurants, bars, cafés. The metro and all the major landmarks including the Acropolis are within walking distance as well. Dorms and bathrooms are well maintained. The kitchen area has everything you need for basic cooking and the terrace on the roof is great as well. Very fast and good laundry service provided for a small fee. The staff are incredibly friendly and you can tell that they enjoy working there! According to some sites this isn't considered a "social hostel" which I don't agree with at all. I met plenty of lovely people without making an effort and they offer daily events including a pub crawl if you want to meet fellow travellers.
Can't think of anything. Would recommend this place to anyone staying in Athens.

Great location, everything is in walking distance. 2 subway stations nearby. Nice interior both in common areas and in the rooms. Discount on breakfast at a restaurant nearby. Nice view from the roof. Polite and helpful staff.
I visited in late November and it was really cold in the room. Really strange decision on electric sockets. I stood in a room for 4 people but it only had 2 sockets, both for guests on the lower beds. Upper beds have "a lamp with usb port" which is unable to fully charge a modern mobile phone throughout the whole night! (20%->80% battery a night).
