Athens modern hotel/hostel- a new gem!

Staff very friendly, helpful and accommodating. Hotel/hostel itself is brand new with modern, extemely clean facilities. Beautiful garden, on-site bar and restaurant. Rooftop terrace and pool not open yet during my stay but they said will be open for the summer - June maybe ? I stayed in a room for 4 women with ensuite bathroom (toilet and huge shower- very clean with shampoo and shower gel and hairdryer). Each bunk bed equipped with light and charging port and privacy curtains. Plenty of storage under bed and also have lockers locked with a code specifically for you. Outside of your room they also have extra showers and toilets- one side for women and another side for men. They have a mezzanine area with a library/work station, a kitchenette with fridge, microwave, kettle, stove to cook. (Label your food) With tables and chairs. Only have good things to say with Okupa. 11 minutes walk to monistiraki metro station and monistiraki square but also have bus stops close by. THANKS OKUPA staff!

ほぼホテルのドミトリー!値段だけのことはある。 とても清潔でおしゃれ。親切なスタッフ。 鍵はワッツアップ内でやりとりするのでワッツアップをDLしておいてください。 ロッカーも大きく、スーツケースも広げられるスペースに余裕がかなりあります。 ドミ内のバスルームに人が入っていても部屋の外のシャワーやトイレも使えるのでまた時間もなし。 無料のウォーターサーバーもあり。 キッチンも広く清潔で使いやすい! ノマドワーカーには最適だと思います。みんなライブラリーでPC開いて作業。オンラインミーティングや通話も可能なら個室もありました。 他人のベッドのきしみ音が大きかったのと、上の段に寝ていると上の階のシャワーやトイレの水の音が聞こえる事が気になったが、 耳栓をしたら問題ないかと。 ホテルの建物の周りがグラフィティだらけなので夜中に帰宅の際は若干治安が不安。
