Cool vibe, ok location, but they have abysmal bed bugs, no air conditioning, and rarely any staff onsite. I found and killed three bed bugs in my bed, and was covered in bites within 10 minutes. Emailed the staff as there was no one in the building (10:30pm), and still have received no response. Shameful apathy to such an appalling hygiene issue. There is also no shower head support, you have to hold it while you wash. The rooms were swelteringly hot and uncomfortable, very rickety bunk beds. Breakfast is also pretty shabby; some plain toast, yoghurt, cereal and boiled eggs. At least it’s cheap, but barely worth it even at that price.

BEWARE: Bed Bugs!! Athens Quinta is a really quaint hostel, located just outside the city center. It's in an area that was safe, though looked a little rough. The building is a lovely little house with a nice patio and bohemian aesthetic. My and my friend had a private room with two beds. It was very basic, but dingy- the sheets and bedding had holes in them. After our second night, my travel companion woke up covered in bed bugs bites!! YUCK! We reached out to the property, who weren't very helpful. They

BED BUGS!!!!!!!! DO NOT STAY HERE! I woke up to bed bugs on the bed, I got bitten, they got in my bag and clothes. When I told the staff the cleaning lady changed the sheets. No action was taken to get rid of the bugs. There are reviews from as far back as last year about bed bugs and they have clearly done nothing to fix the issue. The staff didn't seem to care and refused to give me a refund. They say they do a disinfection every two weeks but that won't get rid of bed bugs! Horrible place, BEWARE!!! I wo

We left with bed bugs :/ we did not read the reviews and now have to clean all of our stuff. Besides that it was a quiet place. The WIFI was not good either. Hosts were really nice and they gave us a magnet for our stay!

The Quinta hostel was a good place to spend our last few days in Athens. The atmosphere was quiet, the breakfast was good, and the location was close to the National Archaeological Museum so it was easy to navigate. However, after coming home, we realized that one of us, not all of us, had bed bug bites. So, the cleanliness got a low star rating. The rest was good for the price.

I stayed here for 3 nights, most of the time I really liked staying here. But, on the last day, I was gone all day to go to an island. When I returned at about 9:00 at night, I went into the room to find a sleeping man in my bed. All of my things had been moved and put all over the room. Like not even all my stuff in one bed. When I asked around the next day, I found out that the other room had bedbugs in it. So, they had moved the man into my room. But I was staying another night, so I have absolutely no i

The place is very nice and pretty. Unfortunately we had bed bugs, but the employees gave us the money back for the night we didn’t stay there anymore. There were also dead bed bugs on the floor… Breakfast is okay, but for the price it's good. The location is very lovely, there are a lot of cafes and bars!

Do not go here if you don't like bedbugs.

Fantastic hostel unfortunately currently going through bed bug infestation. Hostel was great location easy early check in great breakfast included. Sadly our full room were being bitten by what we think must be bed bugs. The staff reassured us things were clean and clear but we continued to be bitten. No refunds were offered and it didn’t feel like the issue was taken seriously but if they get that under control the hostel is otherwise ideal!

The personal is nice, I came late in the evening when the reception was already closed but they sent me an email with all the instructions. Also they stuck a paper with instructions on my bedroom's door to find my bed easy. The breakfast is also cool and includes dairy products, fruits, toasts and jams, peanut cream and tahini so even if you're vegetarian or vegan you have some options. However I found bedbugs in my first bed... But they put me in a new one and since then everything was great

Got bed bugs here - emailed them to let them know but they seemed quite in denial. Atmosphere seemed suited to an older crowd. Loved the location though
