Acropolis View Dream - Hostel
7.6 out of 10, Good, (9)
"Très proche d’une station d’autobus, par contre les rues sont sales et plus ou moins sécuritaires. Le logement est grand mais bruyant et la cuisine est salle dès le début de la soirée. Le personnel est gentil et fait son possible. La vue est belle sur le 7e étage "

"Very central for city centre, felt safe. Roof top bar with wine at €5 a glass! Downside was that thiswas a shared dorm, i was allocated a top bunk although there were bottom bunks available, but would have been charged to switch. As there are lots of bars very close there is street noise until early hours. "

"Property was great although Expedia says checkout is later than it is. Checkout I believe is 11am but Expedia said noon, so the concierge came up and was telling us we didn't have the time we thought we did. They were perfectly pleasant but it forced me to pack quickly. Rooftop bar is cute, all the staff were friendly. Location was great"

Our room was clean, AC was much appreciated, they provided wine coupons, breakfast was included and we have no complaints.
