None. The ancient Greeks and Greek religion in general did not bother very much with thoughts about the afterlife and what an underworld - of which Hades was the god - would be like. The ancient Greeks saw the human life (and afterlife-) cycle much like that of your favorite hamster, meaning dead is dead and no nonsense about punishment or reward afterwards.

Hades therefore was considered a minor god who moreover was seen as having mostly negative character traits, being usually described as 'merciless' or 'revengeful' in the Greek mythology stories in which he played a - usually un-prominent - role. Not the kind of guy you would want to worship, and no city-State did. Burial rituals however were another thing. Hades was supposed to have once prescribed them and they were scrupulously followed by citizens in all city-States. But 'worshipping' Hades was not a part of those procedures.
