My buddy and I have been on Rhodes for about a week now (ever since we got “stranded” here) and I wanted to share some Wifi hotspots for others to check out on their visit:
Socratous Garden – this is located inside the “fortress” right on the main drag. They have fast and reliant internet, nice toilets, were accommodating with helping us find outlets, and Mythos was 3.60 Euro. Not a bad place to hang out!
Starbucks – I know, no culture here, but comfort is beyond anything else I’ve seen since I left the states in May. Not to mention, the vast majority of coffee over here is instant Nescafe and tastes absolutely horrible. A cup of Starbucks is a nice change of pace from the crappy coffee I’ve been drinking over here the last few months. The internet is not free here, but you can buy a Starbucks gift card for 10 Euro and they will give you free internet access cards while you are there drinking your coffee. My friend and I used this tactic for 6 hours and had two coffees apiece.
Lime Pension Viennese Cafe – We stayed at Youth Hostel Rodos (10 Euro a night) and this quaint little place is right around the corner hidden away from the main drag. Awesome internet, lots of electrical outlets, a couple nice (sometimes loud) dogs, and Mythos for 3.50 Euro. This was my favorite WIFI place to post up in Rodos that I found.
