Pros:

I punti di forza dell'albergo sono la vicinanza dall'aeroporto di Heraklion, tranquillamente raggiungibile a piedi e la presenza del personale alla reception h24, quindi con possibilità di arrivo anche tardi.

Cons:

La camera non è un granchè, specialmente il bagno. La pulizia non era delle migliori. La colazione anche è totalmente self service e abbastanza deludente.

Nice hotel, lovely staff, pleasant stay (despite the lack of sleep)
Pros:

Great location, plenty around and only a twenty minute walk to the Airport!

Cons:

Whilst it's great being close to the Airport, there is such a thing as too close. Those planes get real low, so that atop the firmest of firm beds made sleep a luxury.

Καλή σχέση ποιότητας τιμής
Pros:

Εξαιρετικά γρήγορο Internet
Πολύ καλό και πλήρες πρωινό

Cons:

Τα μπάνια ήταν πολύ μικρά, παρόλο που το δωμάτιο συνολικά ήταν μεγάλο
Όλο το ξενοδοχείο χρήζει ανακαίνισης.
Ενδεικτικά, δεν υπάρχουν αρκετές πρίζες, με αποτέλεσμα να είναι πρόβλημα η φόρτιση των συσκευών.

Επίσης τα μπαλκόνια φαίνεται δεν καθαρίζονται ποτέ.

Και η έλλειψη κάποιας έστω και στοιχειώδους απλώστρας είναι αρνητική.
