I liked how it was a very good value for its price! Was the cheapest hostel I’ve seen in all of crete. Very clean, good people, good host. Definitely would recommend. The owner also dropped me off at the airport while he was going into town. So nice would definitely go back.

The pictures don't do it justice. I thought it was going to have just the bunk beds, but it even has a kitchen and a couch to hang out at. Also the bathroom is private, which is not visible in the pictures or listed in the property amenities. It's quite spacious and in a decent location (20-30 minutes walk from the center), with easy parking. Amazing for its price

It was in a great location walking distance to old town and the staff was amazing. I felt so welcome, comfortable, and at home during my stay. The hostel was clean, beds were sufficient, and I loved the outdoor terrace. Kostas went through great initiative as a host to welcome guests as did the rest of the staff. They really foster a social and cozy environment for guests. I would definitely stay again!

I am not usually the person to stay in hostels, but needed this time a quick and cheap place to sleep the night. I was surprised how comfortable and clean everything was. Nice locker under the bed to fit my backpack and night light in the bed. So definitely worth the money. Sadly could not try the pool due to opening hours, but beach was close enough for a late night dip in the water.

One of the best hostels I've ever stayed in. The staff are fantastic, they help you with a lot of things. The room was great, the beds gave you a lot of privacy and space. Everything was very clean and organized. There's plenty of space if you need to work and the internet is good. I'll miss it!

It was cheap and well a very basic hostel. The bed was quite comfortable. The bathrooms are only on the hallway and not too clean, but decent. The location is perfect and the staff is super friendly!
