    Location is so good the beach across the road has crystal clear water and isn’t super busy, also close the bus station and plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby. Plenty of bathrooms and room had a fridge. You can use the sunbeds free of charge after 5pm

    If your in the bottom area u go down stairs and kinda feels like a dungeon no windows and the floor was always so sandy and jsut felt a bit gross the room smelt of mold

    It is in a perfect location in Agia Anna, and the rooms are behind the cafe. There are 2 showers and toilets jn the room, with more toilets available outside the room. The fridge in the room is very handy. The staff were incredibly kind. As well you get a new towel every two days which is great!

    The exit sign above the door is full power all night, which makes it very bright for anyone without an eye mask. No curtains on the bed. There is little ventilation in the shower/toilets in the rooms, making it quite muggy. The common space is only the cafe, which they were lovely and let us use, but just for those wanting a dedicated space outside the rooms to meet other people, this is all there is.

    Great location, sunbeds for free after 5pm

    Safety concerns: the rooms are in a cellar, there is no smoke detector or emergency exit in case there is something happening. Bathroom is really gross and not very clean, aircondition is on 24/7 as the room has no window. Way to expensive for what you get.

    Property response:

    Thank you for your feedback and we are glad to hear that you liked the location. While we always welcome constructive criticism, we’d like to clarify a few points from your review to ensure accuracy for future guests. 1) Safety: Contrary to your comments, our property is fully equipped with fire extinguishers and a clearly marked emergency exit light and standard safety features that comply with all regulations. We’re surprised these were overlooked, as they’re quite visible. (Most accommodations, including ours, typically have one main exit—unless you’re accustomed to places with multiple “VIP escape routes.”). 2) Cleanliness: Our housekeeping team cleans the bathroom daily, but as a beachfront property, some sand is inevitable (a small trade-off for being steps from the sea). We don’t employ 24/7 cleaners to follow guests with a broom, but we assure you the space is thoroughly maintained each day. That said, we were disappointed to find that the room towels were used to clean sandy shoes, so aggressively, in fact, that they clogged the washing machine and had to be discarded. We also noticed a locker missing from the cabinet at checkout, consider it a complimentary souvenir. 3) Value: If our pricing didn’t meet your expectations, more budget-friendly options (like camping) are available nearby with the added bonus of windows and natural airflow for your next stay. Lastly, we take guest comfort seriously and appreciate feedback, but we also believe in fair representation. Safe travels, and we hope your next stay meets all your criteria right down to the number of exit doors.

    Great location, and the rooms are cleaned every day. Staff were helpful. AC included in the rooms was a bonus!

    The room felt a bit like a prison cell, the beds weren’t comfortable and only provided with a sheet. The security was a bit iffy, as my hostel room door opened up almost right onto the street and was never locked.

    Location was good That was about the only good thing. It was barely fit to stay in.

    The room had two bathrooms and neither toilet had a toilet seat??? It was also a female only room so obviously everyone needs to sit. One of the bathrooms also had a large window in it that was only covered by a fly screen, nothing else and it looked into a window of the beach bar kitchen which I feel is quite weird and not particularly safe especially for a female only room. The hostel is directly attached to the beach bar/cafe which I don't think is clear when booking, my room door was literally right next to one of the tables so it could be quite noisy. There was no common area so often people from the hostel would sit there late at night as well. The "towels" provided are tiny little hand towels and there's no other towels to dry your hands in the bathroom and no bath mats after leaving the shower so the room would get quite wet and quite sandy. Bed was okay comfort wise but the pillow was quite thin and lumpy.

    The location was amazing. A very tourist centred area with a beautiful beach right across the road. Bus connecting to the main town comes right past frequently.

    The facilities were limited. Only a fridge, no microwave, jug etc. The room was basic which is fine but beds and pillows not very comfortable. Not very secure, able to unlock the door from the outside without a kept by reaching through an open window which staff were showing guests. Towels provided were very small (hand towel/bath mat size) and bedding had stains on it. Good aircon in the room! Bathrooms were good but basic. Two bathrooms for 8 beds was great.

    Property response:

    Thank you for sharing your feedback about your recent stay. We appreciate your honest review, as it helps us understand where we meet expectations and where we can improve. Location: We’re thrilled you enjoyed our convenient location and easy access to the beach and public transport. This is one of the highlights we take pride in offering our guests. Facilities & Comfort: Our accommodations are designed to provide essential, budget-friendly comfort, and we aim to keep our pricing fair for the basic amenities included. We understand that the room may have felt too minimalist for your preferences, and we regret that the beds and pillows didn’t provide the comfort you expected. We’ll certainly review these items to ensure they meet a better standard for future guests. Safety & Window Concern: We sincerely apologize for any concern regarding the unlocked window. This was a well-intentioned but clearly flawed approach—our staff occasionally left it accessible to assist guests who forgot their keys, avoiding repeated disruptions. However, we fully recognize this isn’t an ideal solution for security and will implement a safer alternative immediately. Towels & Linens: We’ve noted your comments about the towel size and linens, and we’ll address this with our housekeeping team to ensure better quality control moving forward. Value for Money: We strive to maintain a balance between affordability and comfort, and while our pricing reflects the basic nature of our offerings, we regret if this didn’t align with your expectations. Your feedback is invaluable as we continue refining our services. We hope you might consider giving us another opportunity in the future to provide a more comfortable stay. If you’d like to discuss further, please don’t hesitate to contact us directly.

    The location is perfect and it’s easy to go places with the buses stopping close by. ++ the sun-beds free after 5pm!

    One shower was clogged and therefore didn’t drain while showering, and one toilet was clogged. Beds aren’t comfortable, you can feel the springs.

    The location was fantastic & staff great

    The bottom sheet on my bunk bed continually came away an exposed the mattress - it just wasn't big enough to be tucked in properly - I asked about fitted sheets and they had never heard of them.

    The location was incredible, right on the beach. You also got free use of sunbeds after 5pm everyday which was really nice as well. Room was also cleaned everyday

    There was nowhere to wash sand off before coming into the room so sand being brought inside was very common

    The hostel is located in the cutest cafe right on the beach! The supermarket and bus stop are steps away. For the location you can’t beat the price! The staff were lovely and accommodating! Our room was cleaned daily and we were given fresh clean towels as well. You also get a free beach chair and umbrella on the beach that’s connected to the cafe!

    The only thing I would say that could be improved is the bed quality. I had trouble sleeping because it was not the most comfortable mattress and pillow.

    Love the location and how quiet it was. You get a free lounger and umbrella anytime you want. The staff was so friendly and kind. And they cleaned the room and bathroom every day.

    The beds are a little uncomfortable, but it’s what to be expected when staying in a hostel bed. There are mosquitoes, so be prepared with bug spray.

    Located in one of the best beaches in Naxos. Easy to get there by the local bus that runs every half an hour. The place includes the sun beds which is a good add value, otherwise you will have to pay €20 euros for a sun bed each day.

    It was extremely empty but I visited in September and they could be the reason.

    Ideal location, close to lots of restaurants, less that 10 steps away from the beach and was able to use the sunbeds free of charge

    There wasn’t a kitchen but there is a fridge and freezer to store water, yoghurts etc. so unable to cook/prep your own food if you wanted to.

    Staff was super nice and polite! They cleaned the room everyday to get the sand off of the floors, took trashes etc. which was very nice! Location was nice, close to bus stops and besch was just another side of the road. I enjoyed my stay very much!

    There could’ve been a kitchen, but it didn’t bother too much.
