Excellent location and staff. Cozy stay with very nice balcony
Pros:

I liked the location which is very close to the port and also around 10-15 minutes by foot from Chora.
The staff is very helpful and very pleasant

Cons:

The shower is very small and water goes everywhere and also there was a problem with the drainage of the shower. Water didn’t go down as fast as it should be

Staff super disponibile
Pros:

Il personale è stato davvero gentile e disponibile: avevamo vicini molto rumorosi e il giorno successivo ci hanno prontamente spostato in una stanza più grande con un bagno più bello.
La posizione è strategica, a pochi minuti dal porto e dalla spiaggia.
La stanza era molto pulita e le pulizie venivano effettuate ogni giorno.

Cons:

Il parcheggio non è molto ampio e può risultare difficile trovare posto.

Soggiorno fantastico
Pros:

L'hotel si trova in una posizione perfetta dell'isola. A pochi minuti a piedi dal porto e con una comoda fermata autobus accanto, che consente di raggiungere il centro in pochi minuti. Una spiaggia a pochi passi dall'hotel. La vera eccellenza dell'hotel però è lo staff, sempre gentile e disponibile. I consigli ricevuti dalla ragazza alla reception sono stati preziosi! Consigliatissimo
