Location: BEST. Right on top of the restaurant. This restaurant is right in front of the Bus Terminal.All the buses start and interchange at Fira. When the bus arrives in Oia, it stops right in front of this restaurant. And the hostel is right behind the restaurant. So this hostel is in a great location, yet without the noise as it's away from the bus. Basically, 8 beds. Each has a curtain.Bed 5 is the best. Lower bunk, with privacy.Toilet is small, with no towels and toiletries. Be sure to get yours. Else, you can get it from a provision shop that is 5 minutes walk away. Most of the shower room light is not working. So u must close your eyes to shower.This hostel is near to all the good spots for photo shoots in Oia. So if I'm back in Oia, I'll still come here. You don't get to meet the owner. All communication is via Whatsapp. But they are very responsive. And i like that. There is house keeping everyday. So it's great. On my 1st night, the lady sleeping right across me was super horny and was kissing with the Portugal guy all night. Eventually, that guy jumped onto her bed. I almost wanted to ask him to exchange his bed with mine. Both of them met each other in the hostel. The Portugal guy has been staying there quite a while. The lady came only 1...

I felt sorry for the young woman who get fed up, few hours sleep and tired to answer drunk guys with no manner, shooting, music lound, jumping. It was to expect with no check in staff,self checkin, door never lock so you do know not who is guest or not. Restaurant waiters dowstairs stare at you. The picture was taken when new long Time ago which not the case now. Smart people stay only few hours in Oia as its overprice and easy and convenient to take bus for 2€ in very small island. Not...
Read moreOia is expensive destination, including accommodations. I was traveling by myself and didn't want to pay a lot for my sleep. This only hostel in town helped me do that. It's clean and well maintained, got 8 beds so at any time no more than 8 people total. I don't like some hostels being too crowded, so it was good sized place. Its location is right next to the bus station, so you don't have to carry your heavy bag around for long. Add to that the staffs were helpful and let me stay a few hours longer so I could depart at the right time to catch my ferry. If you're a solo backpacker, I'd definitely...
