“Acropolis View Dream Hostel turned out to be a really pleasant surprise and a great base for exploring Athens. The rooms were simple but clean, the shared kitchen and common areas made it easy to chat with other travelers, and the rooftop terrace with the Acropolis in the distance was the highlight of every evening. The neighbourhood felt busy and a bit rough at first, but after a day I appreciated how convenient it was for cheap food and transport, and I ended up really enjoying the atmosphere……

“非常極大後悔選這家!一個女櫃台很無理兇我讓人感覺她很歧視亞洲顧客!
我花兩夜的錢只是跟她要求第二條毛巾,因為我不喜歡重複使用很不衛生。她就跟我吵到不行,我毛巾髒了只好拿隔壁床沒人用的毛巾、她就把我當小偷看待!
The female receptionist was very rude to me. She was a very unfriendly and discriminating woman I have ever met in Europe! I spent two nights fees and just asked her for 2 towels, the tiny items which the hostel should offer the guests. But she not only refused me ruthlessly but also treated me like a THIEF! And took away the towel!

“The hotel building was acceptable, but the lower ranking is due to the location of the hotel in the city. The neighborhood is not a good area where I would walk around by myself, and I am traveling solo. I hadn’t been in this part of Athens before, so I didn’t know the area has lots of graffiti, many vancant buildings, and drugs being used on the street. When the taxi driver dropped me off at the hotel, he warned me to not go out by myself; he recommended ordering food to be delivered to the……

“A localização é muito boa, o chuveiro é muito bom, a cozinha é boa. Os contras sao o colchão, que você sente a mola nas costas e a proximidade dac área social dos quartos, o que incomoda as vezes. ”

“I had a great time in Athens backpackers. The location was great. We can go to many sights from this hotel. And there is a great atmosphere around the hotel.”
“I had a great time in Athens backpackers. The location was great. We can go to many sights from this hotel. And there is a great atmosphere around the hotel.”
"Overall, the hotel was very good and we enjoyed our stay. However, there was one major flaw that significantly affected our experience: the toilet in the room.
The toilet seat is unusually small and round, providing insufficient space even for an average-sized adult. Frankly, I cannot imagine it being comfortable for many guests, especially larger European guests. Even as an Asian guest, I found it cramped.
For male users in particular, the design leaves almost no room at the front when seated, making it genuinely uncomfortable to use. I was surprised that such a small toilet was selected, as it feels completely out of place in an otherwise well-designed hotel.
The issue is not the bathroom size itself, but the choice of toilet. Whoever made the design or purchasing decision may have prioritized appearance over practicality. Unfortunately, it compromises everyday comfort in a way that guests notice immediately.
I hope the hotel will seriously consider replacing these toilets with standard-sized models in the future, as this single issue was the most disappointing aspect of an otherwise excellent stay."
