Nothing really it was all perfect

This hostel has an artistic, vintage vibe and is perfect for socializing and meeting new people. The rooms are spotless and beautifully decorated with great attention to detail. The bed was super comfortable, and the atmosphere made the whole stay really special!

It's located near Omonoia square, very close to bus station and metro. Common areas are open for most of the day and spacious, there is bar where you can order drinks and meet up. Free fruit, coffee and tea in the kitchen, furthermore in the dormitory rooms each bed has a charging point, light and curtains that give privacy.

The location of the hostel is not ideal. Though it is only a 7 minute walk to one of the metro stations and from there only 10 minutes into the fun neighborhood of Plaka, the area you have to walk through does not feel very friendly (and you are recommended to not walk there alone at night or go into a certain direction from the hostel). Additionally, the hostel is located next to an incredibly busy street which provided some noise during the night. Ear plugs are recommended. All in all, though, I still enjoyed my stay!

The rooms are spacious, beautifully decorated, airconditioned and ours had an ensuite which was a real bonus. Also, the hostel has an easy-going vibe. The staff is very friendly, and the common space in the backyard is a nice place to hang out and meet other hostel guests. And the hostel provides tips for local dining and can help with the organization of some tours, which felt very traveller-friendly.

thank you for your hospitality and care. I arrived late at night, the staff prepared everything for me to sleep comfortably. It was quite cool in the room, without a blanket I was freezing. but they helped me with everything and brought me everything I needed! Thanks guys, you're awesome!

The wooden bunks were a bit creaky and getting the air temperature in the room right was difficult. I didn't sleep well. I think the bathroom flooded a bit too and wondered why more effort isnt made to resolve these comfort issues when the rest of the place was so good. I am glad i stayed there but i just wish hostel owners would prioritise the basics - bed and bedding, air temperature , bathroom function. Kitchen comes next and makes a big difference too but here the kitchen was fine i think. Afterall a good sleep is our main need not a free drink at the bar - which i forgot to have.

It is a beautifully furnished little hostel and the welcome was very good. They gave excellent recommendations for local eateries.

The garden is huge, filled with plants, truly amazing. Bar has great drinks at fair prices. Everything is sparklingly clean. Rooms have high ceilings and big windows, beds are comfy with blackout curtains that cover 100% of the exposed bed area. The staff is exceptional and beyond expectations, they're the ones that make this a must stay. Will definitely visit again.

Baloo is a beautiful hostel and a magical place! it is ideal for visiting Athens, being in a central position, and it is also a suitable place to meet new people, as it has a garden - Bar, and a very large shared kitchen! the structure is very welcoming and clean and the staff (Tomas, Dimitra, Alexandra, Evans) are the added value of this structure! I'll be back for sure!

Stayed in September 2023

The area is a little sketchy, made me a little uncomfortable walking around alone, and its about a 17 min walk to the centre

The staff were lovely and accomodating! The common areas were comfortable and well equip! The rooms were clean, enough space, had lockers, and privacy curtains!

the interior design and the cleanliness of it all

I did not use the kitchen although it looked great. Maybe I would have used more if I was better informed about what is available/ included.

The staff was fantastically friendly helpful and attentive. I liked the building architecture and interior decor. The interior court bar and lounge was a really fantastic gathering place and to receive guests as well.
