Pros:

Struttura davvero molto bella, curata e accogliente, situata in una zona tranquilla ma comodissima: in pochi minuti a piedi si raggiunge il centro di Chora. La vista al tramonto è semplicemente spettacolare. Molto piacevole anche la piscina e la zona relax, perfette per rilassarsi dopo una giornata in giro. Colazione buona e varia, adatta a tutti i gusti.
Ottima anche la pulizia, ogni giorno con cambio regolare degli asciugamani, sempre freschi e puliti.
Un ringraziamento speciale ai proprietari, sempre gentilissimi, disponibili e attenti a ogni esigenza. Esperienza ottima, la consiglio assolutamente.

I returned for my second visit. I liked it so much. The staff are very friendly and helpful, they became friends and almost like family. The view is incredible. It's peaceful to sleep, and the breakfast is amazing, very varied, and really prepares you for the day. I'll be back!

Great accomodation. Superb sunset views.
Pros:

Solo Traveller. Room was clean (and cleaned daily to high standard). Fridge, kettle and cups/glasses. Plenty of hot water in shower. Price very competitive. Friendly and welcoming reception.
But,and there is a but, the view at sunset over the Chora and islands comes at the price of 235 strides up the hill to the hotel ( Sad but I counted) but what a memorable view. That view alone should sell this place to you. If you cannot walk it take a taxi or I think they will even pick you up from the ferry.
For my stay here, a sincere, Thank You.

Cons:

Nothing to dislike.
