Pros:

Very quiet location offering stunning views of Souda Bay. So very peaceful. Its remoteness made trips to Chania more challenging
The Staff are very welcoming and accommodating.

Dejlig oplevelse.
Pros:

Meget behagelig personale.
Vi kom en sen aften og de lavede mad til os selvom køkkenet havde lukket.
Dejlig morgenmad.
Rent og pænt.
Alt til meget fornuftig pris.

Unsitio agradable salvo por la plaga de cucarachas
Pros:

Empezamos regular porque solicité instrucciones para la entrada y no me respondieron. Es cierto que me las habían enviado en un mensaje que recibí meses antes, pero creo que merecía una respuesta.
La habitación era grande y estaba limpia aunque antigua y no muy bien equipada.
Por la mañana la recepcionista nos comunicó que debíamos pagar 21 euros por el uso del aire acondicionado durante tres días, lo cual no habíamos visto nunca. Nos dijo de forma bastante antipática que si no queríamos pagar no tendríamos aire acondicionado, aunque hacía mucho calor ( más de treinta y cinco grados).
El tirador del WC no funcionaba. Lo comunicamos en dos ocasiones y seguía sin funcionar.
Las fotografías publicadas se corresponden con la realidad; sin embargo el sonido que producían las cigarras era insoportable, de manera que no era agradable salir al balcón durante el día.
Pero era peor por la noche: ayer contamos en el balcón (de unos tres metros cuadrados) nueve cucarachas todas correteando a sus anchas. También salían por los desagües de la ducha y del suelo del baño. La higiene por tanto es pésima.
No volveríamos a este establecimiento de ninguna manera.

Yö ennen lentoa
Pros:

Sijainti hyvä. Vastaanotto oli todella miellyttävä. Huoneesta upea näköala ja piha/allasalue mukavat.
Sänky ja tyynyt olivat äärimmäisen kovat ja epämukavat. Yöllä herätessä lennolle, muutama iso torakka juoksi lattialla kun sytytimme valot. Kotona laukkujen purku varmuudeksi ulkona.

Séjour décevant de 3 nuits
Pros:

Séjour de 3 nuits.Arrivée par un temps pluvieux aussi nous n’avons pas pu apprécier ni jouir ni de la vue ni de la piscine .
Bon accueil, Grande chambre , lit confortable mais : pas de bouilloire ni machine à café comme indiqué ; pas de tapis de bain ; 2 maigres savons pour lavabo et douche .
Rideau de douche vieux , usagé , couleur douteuse. Nous avons dû payer le chauffage (7 euros /jour, car la température extérieure était à 14 degrés. Pas de couette mais 2 couvertures à l’ancienne dans une armoire sentant le moisi .
Bien Décevant par rapport aux avis des autres internautes
.

Great quiet location, if you aim to venture beyond the hotel and it's fantastic pool then you'll need a car.
The whole place was kept spotless and all the staff were courteous and helpful.

Family holiday
Pros:

A great value hotel. Staff are friendly and welcoming. The pool area is fantastic, and the food available at the pool bar is home-cooked and delicious.
Bedrooms are basic, but who spends much time in the bedroom on holiday anyway?!
Only issue was the beds - mattresses are not comfy at all. But overall, a great holiday location that I would recommend.

It’s good but not the rooms
Pros:

The area is amazing because it’s very nice, even the staff are nice.

The ambiance is very well kept and nice. But our room is very out dated, like 90s still. In my opinion they need an upgrade to make the rooms level with the pool and the around area of the hotel.

We stayed there just for one night before we go to the airport. But we didn’t sleep well every hour we wakes up because the bed is very uncomfortable and the pillows are very thin :/

Bathroom without Soaps, and no plugs on one side of the bed and there is a lamp but you can’t plug it in.

But the bar area, the pool is amazing even the person at the bar is nice. The food is good as well.

Situato in collina, luogo molto tranquillo e con una bellissima piscina, proprietaria gentile.
Pochi chilometri in macchina e si arriva sulla national road, questo hotel è stato una piacevolissima scoperta.
Ci siamo stati benissimo

Pros:

I loved the hotel and the ambiance outside the room. The room was very blah and the mattress was not very comfortable. But for the cost, it was well worth it and it was clean.
