Bedrooms / showers were fine but walls are super think and no real environment to socialize. Rooftop is only open for a couple hours per day.

Nice hostel in a convenient location. The rooms are ok, bathrooms are a bit in the need of a refurb, the extractor fan was essentially useless. Didn't use either of the bars but they look nice and the staff were all friendly. No air conditioning in the rooms which I found shocking, it was getting a bit hot to sleep in late April, no idea how people will cope mid summer.

Hostelworld says

"Athens Backpackers was completely renovated from top to bottom in June 2021. It now has a 2 level Roof Bar called 'Sunnies' with unbeatable views of the Acropolis. And a downstairs lobby bar and co working space with a meze eatery called 'The Local' serving local food and drinks all day and night. All rooms, bars and spaces at the property have 200MBPS hi-speed WiFi. All shared rooms have PODS with individual lights and charging stations. We have completely contactless check in/out and our door locks are covid proof and operated by your smart phone."
