I had a fantastic stay at this hostel, largely thanks to the exceptional hospitality provided by the Hostel Manager, Matthew. From the moment I arrived, he made me feel incredibly welcome. His local tips around the area were spot-on, and he was always quick to help with any requests. Matthew's work ethic truly stood out—he went above and beyond to ensure that all guests had a wonderful stay, especially during the colder winter months, even arranging an extra blanket for me. The common room was a great place to relax and unwind, and if you’re lucky, you might even get to enjoy the company of the hostel's playful and affectionate cats. The kitchen was another highlight for me—it's small but well-equipped, making it very convenient for preparing meals. The room itself was clean, well-kept, and provided all the essentials for a comfortable stay. The location is fantastic—super close to the bus stop, and Fira is centrally located, making it easy to access all of Santorini’s transport options. Overall, I loved my stay and would highly recommend this hostel to anyone visiting Santorini. Great atmosphere, great people, and an unbeatable location!

I stayed in 4 beds female dorm. It has its own balcony for smoking. It also has bathroom inside the room. The common area and the kitchen utensil are all provided. Not to mention the location, it is very near to the bus station, Fira square, restaurants, stores, etc. Mathew was such a good guy, so kind and very helpful 👍🏼 Thank you for your hospitality!
I stayed there in winter time, so it was very cold and windy.. unfortunately the heat from the air conditioner was not properly working, this probably because the weather outside was so cold. However, Mathew provided me more blanket so I could feel less cold.

My stay here was amazing! Firstly the location is ideal, very close to anything you will need and the major bus station. The hostel was clean and comfortable. It also had the right mix of wanting to chill by the pool but then have drinks and go out with everyone at the night. The host Mathew was amazing! Helped with any questions and recommend great places to go / trips to do. Will deffo return when I go back to Santorini in the future

Overall vibe was really nice, very laid back and authentic. Matthew is a beautiful human being and will make you feel comfortable and at home. The hostel is simple but has everything you may need and it is next to Fira bus station. THIS IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE ALL THE BUSSES OF THE ISLAND START FROM FIRA.

The guy working there is a very nice dude. Location was very good. Really close to the busstop and the cheaper places for food and drinks. Doing laundry was free. Perfect place to meet other travelers.
The matras was not very comfortable as well for the pillows.

The location is very near to main Bus terminal and city center and required only 5 minutes by walking distance.
The price of room is the higher than expected although I booked in November and is off session in that place.
