This would be my worst hostel experience in life. There was no one present on site to help you, the rooms were not really clean and worst of all, there are bed bugs. I am just back from my holiday and I only stayed in this hostel. Please clean the space and ensure you are giving a good experience to travellers.

My stay started well, but quickly turned negative. On the second day, I was told there had been a mistake and I had to change rooms. I agreed, but the staff moved all my belongings without my permission, and I had to contact them just to locate my things. In the new room, I woke up with multiple bites. I reported it immediately, but received only a vague response and no real follow-up. When I later asked for information to handle the situation, I got no reply. I’ve since had to spend a significant amount of money on medical treatment due to a strong reaction to bed bugs. Overall, very poor communication and handling of a serious issue. I would not recommend this place.

Can’t really rate the staff cause nobody is there. The hostel and its garden is nice, but I was a attacked of bedbugs.

There were bed bugs. We never saw any sort of staff to help us at all. Once we came back in the middle of the night and the front door was wide open which is concerning because none of the rooms lock either. It is very male centered with old men staying there. The balcony and courtyard were cute but it was not a good experience. Not worth it.

BED BUGS!!! Also there were a bunch of old men staying there with weird vibes. Would not stay again. Didn’t see any staff at all the whole trip. Came back one night to the only door to the hostel wide open (which is very concerning because the individual rooms don’t lock).

Vibe Analysis
The rear garden and terraces are the main draw here: a calm outdoor hangout with space to sit, mix, and catch a sea view from the terrace area. It gives the hostel more character than a basic bed stop, especially on dry days when the garden becomes the best place to linger. The location is practical for Paphos old town, with the main bus station, tourist market, cafes, bars, and restaurants close by. Beds can be comfy, the place is often clean, and there are small equipped kitchens, a fridge, storage, lockers with your own padlock, and possibly a washing machine. The social side is uneven. It can feel friendly, calming, and easy for meeting people, but it can also be quiet in slow season or chaotic when noise in the garden runs late. Staff contact may work better by message than in person, with sharply mixed experiences around helpfulness and on-site presence.
Signals to check
- Recent bedbug complaints are a serious risk.
- Dorm rooms may not have locks, and front-door code/key access can feel loose.
- Hot water can be unreliable or missing.
- Bathrooms and toilets may be limited, dirty, moldy, or in need of work.
- Staff presence on site can be thin, especially during problems.
- Noise can carry, and quiet hours may not be enforced.
