I don’t stay at hostels often, but Bedbox and its wonderful staff made it easy to get comfortable. The place is very clean and is cleaned multiple times a day. The location is great - all of central Athens and the acropolis is within a quick enjoyable walk (20 mins tops). The staff are very helpful and went out of their way to make sure I was happy. Constantina is amazing! Highly recommend for a backpacker/hostel experience.

Danisa (sp), the front desk/coffee bar extraordinaire was amazing!!! She was a fountain of information and her recommendations were on point. I had a great meal and was able to get some shopping done. I was given information on transportation options for heading to the airport in the middle of the night. She made me an iced coffee that was better than Starbucks. The room was nice and quiet. The locker was huge and I was able to store all my luggage with plenty of room left. The location gave me dining options and shopping options. My only suggestion is to have the option of early check-in or at least have the option to be able to grab a shower. After traveling over 24 hours it would have been nice to get a shower and head out for the day. I would have paid extra for the privilege. Overall, it was a great experience. I would definitely stay here again. The staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful. The place was clean and quiet. The bed was comfortable and I was able to get some decent sleep.

One of the nicest hostels I have stayed in. All of the staff were super friendly, helpful and kind when answering questions. The hostel it self is in a good location within walking distance to pretty much everything (including the metro). The rooms were clean and the beds super spacious too. Overall a really nice place to stay (:

Great Hosel

As a solo 46F traveler that has been staying in hostels for over 20 years, I have to say Bedbox is one of the best! Great location, very clean, several small hang out spots from the basement to the roof, comfy beds with curtains!, large storage boxes with locks provided, and decent bathrooms with 3 clean showers per floor (towels for rent). But it is the staff that really makes it! Constantina was so helpful, remembered my name and was a genuinely nice host. The other staff members (mother and son) were super friendly and fun, and generous with a free glass of wine and ouzo. There was also a free pizza party one night. It definitely isn't a party hostel, but more of a family feeling where being social happens naturally. Great advice for restaurants and sightseeing also by the staff. Can't wait to return to Athens and stay here as a jumping off point to explore the islands.

This is a great place. The employees are really nice. Nice social atmosphere but not a crazy part scene. Will meet lots of travelers. They did my laundry for 6€. Only issue was the bathrooms. Nowhere to put clothes when showering besides a wet bucket.?

I’ve stayed in a number of hostels before and this is probably the best one yet!! For location, it’s in a very convenient spot near Monastiraki station, and within walking distance from many attractions in Athens. I felt safe walking back alone at night. As for the hostel itself, it was very clean, beds were very comfortable with privacy curtains and with thick blankets for the winter, and there were nice spots to relax and meet other travellers. The kitchen was also well equipped. The staff were also very very friendly and helpful, and made the stay even more pleasant!! Had a really great stay (-:
