Fourth Stop

Athens is a rubbish tip!!!!!

I hated it! The only good thing about it is their food but I can get that anywhere and if I can't then I can always learn to make it.
After seeing the Acropolis there's not much else to see. In my opinion I find the city very very grotty, worse than my home town and thats a grotty place at times. Maybe it was the hostel I was staying at and the amount of prositutes outside the fromt door. I don't know/ All that I know is that I never want to visit there again. Luckly I don't have to now, it was on my list and now its ticked off. No need to depress myself and go back. Also it's not the bast place to go if you are a lone female traveler. Luckly there were two other frmales traveling so we didn't find it too bad when we were with each other.
I'm sorry to all those who love the city. I can't help that way I feel about it.

Boring :(
First of all I would like to say sorry to Hosel Zeus. Their location really is terrible but to bo honest there's not alot they can really do about that. Unfortunatly there are loads of 'ladies of the night' practically right outside the front door. I also think I remember that on a certain website they stated that they had a on site bar, they didn't. According to one of the reception guys it'll be ready in a weeks time but god only knows how it really is going to be like or even if it really will be ready in one week. There was alot of renovation work going on whilst I was there so you never know, lol.
The rooms in general are an average size. The rooms all have a sink in as far as I am aware, mine also had a desk, chair and mirror, which helped when generally getting ready.
The showers were a tad strange. Normally you have a cubical so that you can get undressed and put all your toiletries, here however wher you would get undressed ect, is where another person would get undressed too. Maybe its not much of a big deal with guys but I found it uncomfortable.
Yes ok the internet was free but there was only 2 computers and no Wi-Fi. There was also no sence of common room to mingle with other guests, which i think is important. Overall I dould definatly not recommend this place to anyone!
