If anyone wants Athens info let me know.
Lots of good cheap hotels in city centre around the acropolis and prices around 35/50 euros for two nights, if you are travelling together they have dorm rooms for up to ten people coming in at around 25/35 euros for two nights.
Best areas to look Monastiraki and Plaka, where all the bars and tavernas are and right behind the acropolis at Anofiotika. Absolutely central and with the metro for the Olympiacos stadium (Kareskaki) within 1k of the whole area.
Athens is a mega tourist city all year round and while the Greeks are probably the friendliest, most generous people you will ever meet, Athens has it's pickpockets, and they are fucking good at it, so valuables passports etc hidden away at all times, including phones and if you are out with a bag (shoulder bag, bum bag, keep it on you at all times, shoulder bags strap around your neck, bag in front where you can see it. like i said these pickpockets are good. I will also tell you areas to avoid after dark too so let me know.
Metro and buses direct from the airport to central Athens around 10 euros and run every few minutes, get off at Sintagma and you are 1k from the acropolis and the areas I mentioned. The police are ok unless you are a numpty and try to fuck with them.
but what if the girls are super cute
These super cute young balkan girls who are into fat, bald, middle aged foreigners? The usual scam is they invite you to some seedy bar, where they order for you and themselves. They get served colored water. After half an hour you get the bill for 1000 euros for a few drinks. The bar has bouncers who are happy to accompany you to an atm. Unfortunately if you are looking for action you will have to pay for it, plenty of brothels aroundbut what if the girls are super cute

I take it you can’t get Raki there Pav? I have very fond memories of drinking that stuff on a boys holiday to Crete...
