Lovely, well-run hostel and small hotel. I was in a private room -- comfortable bed, huge and nice bathroom, air-conditioning. Staff was very accommodating. Nice breakfast. Fun, safe area. Inside, perfectly quiet -- a little noise from the surrounding restaurants, but they supply ear plugs!

Hostel was in a great location - lots of great restaurants and bars around and minutes away from the centre. The roof terrace was great! Only downside was that the bedroom doors were quite thin and we were woken up early in the morning by cleaning/people moving around to get to the terrace.

This was my first time staying at a hostel, and I thoroughly enjoyed it! The hostel was clean as a whistle, and the facilities were nicer than most hotels I've stayed at. The bunk beds were large and had privacy shades. I opted for a mixed gender room and did not feel unsafe at all. The men were friendly, respectful, and I enjoyed talking to them! The hostel is located just south of the Acropolis and in the tourist centre. There are many good restaurants within a minutes' walk, and the hostel's rooftop bar has great views.

Mosaikon is a fine modern hotel, centrally located. Only a few blocks from the Monastiraiki Metro Station, which goes to and from the airport. It is impeccably maintained, and the staff is very helpful, competent, and congenial. I stayed nine days, and was able to see Athens (the sites, the restaurants, the rebetiko) as well as take day trips with no trouble at all. Athens is a busy place, so you’ll do well to avail yourself of their breakfasts, which is offered buffet style with your type of coffee: American, cappuccino, or Greek.

This place is very nice , safe and super clean. Staff members are helpful, kind and accommodating. I stayed here on and off during my 3 months travels in Greece . They kept my big luggage in a locker room more than 45 days and with affordable price. Each time I came back I was greeted with amazing front desk employees. I’ll be back for sure for my next trip. One of the best hostels I stayed during my Greek and French vacation. Thank you Mosaikon

Very central for city centre, felt safe. Roof top bar with wine at €5 a glass! Downside was that thiswas a shared dorm, i was allocated a top bunk although there were bottom bunks available, but would have been charged to switch. As there are lots of bars very close there is street noise until early hours.

I wish my Experience was better

This hostel has alot going for itself. The place is quite nice, in the middle of Everything, the staff is very helpful, courteous and kind. Except, for housekeeping. I believe they truly need retraining. I feel MANY people are not saying this about housekeeping for some reason. I do not understand why they come in at 9:30am, leave the door open and start cleaning. It is very awkward when we are still sleeping, exposed with little clothes. They open the door balcony and curtains, even when you close them for privacy. I actually closed the door AND curtains twice and guess what..the housekeeper literally opened them all up again..I was AMAZED. I stayed in a female only dorm and we all wanted it closed.Why did they deliberately open it again? It makes it hard for women to get up safely, if the large balcony is wide open for everyone to watch you with little clothes on. This was interesting to me. I tried to stay 3 days, yet on the 3rd day, I woke up to the door wide open to our room around 9 again, housekeeping opened the curtains and door AGAIN, I closed it again with a towel on and went to the restroom. I Actually got locked inside the bathroom, the key stopped working somehow. I tried to get out and they turned the light off on me, which made me panic. The light is on the outside of the bathroom. I screamed turn the light back on! Did not listen to me. Both housekeepers said to calm down..with the light off? this felt inhumane to me. Their looks said we dont care. I left 💯
