First of all i loved the welcoming and friendly atmosphere. I was encouraged to use the kitchen and cook a proper meal (I only ever boil water in hostels), which i was then able to share. My usual hostel communication consists of muttering 'Hi' or 'Monin', the top being 'Where are you from?' Here i was immediately engulfed in conversations and later spent a magical night talking, singing and a general internationa and intergenerational fun night. It might have been a random mix of random people, but I felt a strong genius loci. Cleanliness, practicality, location and value for money-absolute top number 1!

That i only stayed 1 night. Would have loved to stay longer if it wasn't for the ferry timetable.

It is a spacious building, with showers for ladies only, with wide enough beds (with curtains, for privacy). There is a common room with TV and books, some games as well. The kitchen is well-equipped. Some people did cook. There is a fridge, too. The Minas Church and the bus stop are 1-2 minutes away, on foot. You can take the bus from the airport, and it drops you really near the accommodation. Then, the city centre is within walking distance. The bus can take you, conveniently, to Knossos and other places.

Nothing to dislike. Excellent stay for the money.

Usually I book private self-contained accommodations so this was my first experience of living with others in a 6 bed female dorm. I am 69 and trying to live my 'best life'. So ... It was great! Perfect way to solo travel and enjoy contact/chats/ideas with fellow travellers if and when you want it! Hector on Reception was very helpful and had a wonderful laid-back but efficient attitude. You want extra blankets or towels? No problem. You'd like me to book a taxi for you for 4:30am? No problem. You are worried in case the taxi doesn't arrive and you don't have data on your phone? No problem. Here's my number. You can call me via What's App. NB: Creta Taxi service arrived exactly on time! Cleaning staff do a fabulous job each day! More than happy to recommend this hostel.

This is not a criticism of the hostel. I'm disappointed with the attitude of some travellers who leave a mess in the kitchen or around the barbecue on the rooftop. Thankfully these inconsiderate and lazy folk are in the minority.

One of the best hostels I've stayed in—and I've stayed in many! It has everything you need: privacy curtains, super comfy beds (slept like a baby), and an incredibly nice and helpful staff. The place is spotless, especially the bathrooms. There's a rooftop to chill until midnight, a well-equipped kitchen, and the location is perfect—close to the center but away from the crowds. A supermarket is just a 3-minute walk away. The air conditioning works well, and you can leave your stuff in the locker after checkout. Ideal for a tranquil stay, but also a great place to meet people and make plans.

This hostel is very modern, it is perfectly located in the downtown area near to a well known park. The rooms have their own shower and toilets. There are also additional showers and toilets in the hallways. The kitchen is huge and have space for two people to cook at the same time. It also has a large dinning table and a nice view from the top. There is an elevator and it takes you to the 7th floor where there is a bar. There are laundry machines, but no dryer. The bunk beds have courtains for privacy and they provide sheets and towels.

The laundry machine instructions are not clear and when you asked the staff about a dryer they tell you that the laundry machine includes a dryer, but that is not accurate. The clothes come out damp and you have to figure out where to hang them to dry.

The property was excellent. The stuff were great, very kind, helpful, hospitable and accommodating. The location is great, you only need 5 min walk to the city center and two min walk to the bus station. U guys have my recommendation for this place.

I have no complaints, but it’s always lottery when you share room with other guests. I’m trying to say that there is always someone who doesn't feel like sharing a room with other people, and who demands that they be quiet and respect the other guests in the room.

A fresh renovated building with super new and modern bathrooms and clean. Dorm doors have electric combination code to enter, same as the building itself, with nice rooftop to gather together and good vibes with the hosts and guests. Really enjoyed my stay there and in Heraklion

Beds could have a shelf to leave your stuff like mobile while charging or the eye glasses

Beds had curtains Close to where you can catch the bus Great social area Has a rooftop terrace

Bins in the toilets not changed enough. The cleaner comes early and none of the volunteers that work there check or empty them. I did raise this issue with one of the staff so whether it was passed on I do not know Shower cubicles are ridiculously small and there is no hook inside. They are also filthy and could do with an upgrade - replace the plastic doors please

Truly my favorite hostel I've stayed in, which was largely because of the volunteers and other guests. But the facilities and location were good, bed was comfortable, etc. There were only two of us in the four person dorm but I imagine it may have been a bit tight if all beds were filled. It's the kind of locker where you need a lock but I didn't have one so the hostel lent me one. Nice seating area on roof.

Shower heads in ladies' bathroom are all broken. The kitchen was often dirty from guests not cleaning up and had to wash all dishes before using them, I wouldn't have cooked here. The fridge could use a good cleaning.
