“In my opinion, the rooftop bar is a real draw, especially with its Acropolis view. What stands out is the friendly atmosphere fostered by the staff and the social scene, and the location is excellent for exploring Athens on foot. While breakfast might be better sourced nearby, the convenience and community feel make it a solid base for solo travelers.”
