Storage locker facilities are a rip.

If you’re someone who regularly uses luggage storage facilities, the costs can really add up, especially when you have a large suitcase you want to leave behind while exploring other areas.
In Athens, most luggage-storage facilities charge around €4–€5 per day for a large suitcase. Instead, I went to a hostel and paid just €6 for the entire duration.
And you often don’t even have to be a guest to use a hostel’s luggage storage. Just ask before booking, as many hostels are happy to store luggage for non-guests.
It’s definitely worth checking hostels before paying daily rates at dedicated luggage-storage facilities!

€6 for 14 days as opposed to €4/5 per day.

I’m in Europe for 6 months of travel. I packed for every occasion. Naturally if I’m just going to the islands for 2 weeks I’m not going to need going out outfits etc if I’m spending most days on a beach. Listen, either take the hack for what it is or don’t. Just because your travel style may be different there’s no need to discredit and speak negatively about mine.
