Of the hostels I've stayed with, YellowSquare Athens has left a lasting impression on me. The hostel itself is absolutely incredible, with one of the more interesting features being the spiral staircase that goes all the way up all 9 floors.

I spent a few days at this hostel in Athens and honestly had the best time! The rooms are nice, clean, and cozy, and the common areas are really well kept.

Nice vibe, great location and they have a rooftop bar. I got the 4-bed female dorm. There is a bunk bed with curtains which is perfect, but the other two beds had very little privacy. The rooms have balconies and the kitchen is well equipped. You get a welcome drink and they often host activities. The bathroom was quite dirty and small, but overall nice place!
