The roof was the place to be. Nice view, sunbeds chill atmosphere , acropolis view.
The was also a backyard is also an alternative. People were friendly as well as the staff. Price was super and generally everything was clean. The area was not part of the historical center neither anything superb but convenient to grab something to eat almost any time.

Very nice quite place with friendly staff and customers.
Not easy to find someone who's working in the hostel in the morning times.

The location is near Athens Railway Station and metro station, that was the only plus point. The environment in the area is however scary, it is worst than Victoria Station area(which have improved and also near Victoria metro station), there is no activities at night nearby the hostel, except one bakery shop and sundry shop operated by friendly immigrant Bangladeshi. So avoid out at night.
The hostel did not has reception counter. Be careful when booking as there is another hostel named Acropolis View Dream 2 . Customer service not available, as no staff to be seen. Kitchen basic, but has roof top with nice view of the city. Room we book is at 7th floor roof top, window connect to the open area at roof top, you can hear noise if there are people there. Wall paper peel off, shower basic with only hot water shower head. We did not use the bathroom. However Toilet was outside and key given for you to open it.
When you booked the room online, they will give you a list of terms and conditions, which some you may not understand. One include drunk behavior is allowed in the hostel.
Security at Athens Railway Station and Metro station is equally scary. When I left in the early morning, the ticket counter of metro still not open, we met backpackers just arrived from the airport, they were robbed of their belonging included passport. At the airport, we met fellow backpackers and travelers, most have the experience of being robbed or attempt noticed. So if you stayed here, avoid metro

アテネの中では相当価格が安い。
ラリッサ駅に近いので、翌朝のカランバカ(メテオラ)行きの直通列車に乗るには素晴らしいロケーション。ピレウス港からもグリーンライン1本でヴィクトリア駅から徒歩10分程度。
しかし、ホステル周辺はソマリア人、ロマ、インド系などの移民が多く、路上でたむろしてるので雰囲気はあまり良くない。とはいえ、特に危険な感じもしなかった。
スタッフは常駐しておらず、呼び鈴を鳴らしてもなかなか応答しないなど、対応は良くない。ホステルのテイをなしてない。
個室2泊の予定が、最初の1泊目はダブルブッキングで個室が空いてないといわれドミトリーへ行かされた。またそのドミトリーはエアコンがなく死ぬほど寝苦しかった。2泊目の個室はエアコン付きで快適。また個室とドミトリーの差額はしっかりリファンドしてもらった。ドミトリーと個室はわずかな金額差しかないので、2人以上の場合は個室が良い。また、個室はキッチン前なので騒音は気になるだろう。
シャワーは横側は透けガラス、後ろ側の入り口はカーテンのみ。こんなシャワールームのホステルは初めてで驚いた。
価格相応のホステル。自分は再度泊まりたいとは思わない。
very good location for train for meteora and from piraeus port. price also good. but many immigrants around the hostel so the atmosphere is not good.
shower room is poor.
I don't wanna stay here again.

●good
near Athens train station and Larissa metro station
big rooftop, could see Acropolis
have kitchen and microwave(but not clean and teapot was broken couldn't boil hot water)
●not good
Waited at lobby and took 30 mins to check in, too long time.
No hot water for shower, only COLD water, too terrible...
Shower and toilet are for all gender, male and female are not separate, and only a curtain not a door for shower, felt worried and unsafe while taking shower.
very noisy area until 3am

I have visited a few places in my time, however, this is arguably the worst one that I have stayed in. The location is very bad, not so far from the nearest metro but in the middle of the immigrant zone with red light district to boot so a bad start.
The property itself is falling into ruin, one lift didn't work, the kitchen lacked basic things (I ate from a dog bowl as there were no plates for cereal) and it is filthy, especially the kitchen but also in other areas. The showers are a joke, 5 in a row with toilets at the end and no privacy and men and women are together, it's like the stone age! I also think there are 3 toilets in the entire place or at least that's all I was shown!
The rooftop was also a major disappointment, if you want to sit on soggy old and disgusting mattresses then it will work, other than that the view of the Acropolis is nice!
The plus points were that the room was nice and big, the bed comfy and there was an air conditioner there that worked well. The locker was also big and held everything it needed to and it was pretty clean, however, the downsides outweigh the upsides for sure

5min walk to the Larissa train station (Stathmos Larissi - the Athens railway main station). Station also has metro entrance, so easy to reach. Stayed in 6beddorm, male/female mixed. Showers at 2nd floor. Room with air conditioner. Generally nice. Bunk beds clean and metal (not wood, stable structure)

nice hostel and very excellent staff , friendly and helpful

Great location near the station, safe. Code lock. Lockers with key. You can leave your bag after checkout.
The staff is a bit desorganised.You have always wait!
In the 4 female dormitory there were 5 beds. When it was raining, the whole room was in water. To get to the kitchen, you have to climb several floors of the stairs without a railing, where the staff leaves buckets, brooms etc. There is no place to have breakfast, in the kitchen there is a sofa, a bar counter and three chairs. There are no common places (only the roof, but it was closed because of the rain). But the worth are the beds, the mattresses are sealed in a film, as if they had not been unpacked after purchase, and the sheets were laid directly onto the film. Each movement of a sleeper causes unpleasant sounds and very unpleasant sensations. It was not possible to relax in such a bed absolutely.

My stay here ran from 18 October up to 22 October. The greeting at reception was friendly and though the guided tour was short it gave me a great impression of the location and its rules.
This hostel is ideally located. You can either walk to the metro which takes you into the city center or you can walk there. Supermarkets and an excellent bakery can also be found nearby.
I think the rooftop terrace could use a bit of improvement to make it cozier. I also think the photos of each attraction on every floor are great, but it would be nice to see the theme expanded to include posters or theme walls with photos.
The post it notes that you spot in the kitchen and near the elevator are proof that the staff accomplish a high level of surface.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE
GEORGE, MARIANA, AND ALL THE STAFFS ARE BRILLIANT.
I FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS PLACE AT FIRST SIGHT.
The energy with the people around here is wonderful.
I am glad to have found out about this place.
Location and rooftop view is the main key point for this lovely place.
Toilets/shower rooms are very clean and spacious despite having to share it was more than perfect.
Really good towels for shower, because it’s huge.
I recommend this to all solo female travellers alike.
I have no regrets
Thanks for a wonderful stay

Hotel was good but the location was not so much. The walk from the metro felt unsafe even though the hotel was not too far away. The hostel itself was safe and clean though. Good value for the money except for the not so good neighborhood. View from the top of the roof was amazing and almost made up for it.
