HEERLIJK!!!
Pros:

De kamer was erg schoon. Het personeel, de eigenaar en de schoonmaaksters, waren zeer vriendelijk. Het zwembad was schoon, maar daar hebben we maar 1 keer gebruik van gemaakt. Wij zijn strandgangers.
Voor herhaling vatbaar!

Cons:

Ons enige minpunt was de aanmaakkoffie. Maar dat was geen probleem. Bij de supermarkt een stukje verderop kon je een lekker bakkie koffie halen.

Pros:

The room was very clean

Cons:

Arrived at 1am, understandably there was no one to great us. I would have expected at least 1 bottle of water in the fridge. There was no tea towel. The room was only visited by cleaners every other day.

Dezamagire..
Pros:

Ar trebui mai multe explicatii.Am ajuns 3 pers ..cu varsta peste..60 ani. Hotelul este administrat de 2 frati si sotia unuia,Maria, Unul politicos si gata sa ajute,,laude si multumiri.Cel ce ne-a primit plictisit si chiar rautacios cu agresivitate la raspunsuri, ne-spus ca are 2 camere una la demisol si una la etajul 2..fara lift. "Daca ne place!!! mai sunt hoteluri in jur "Mai are 2 camere una langa alta la etajul 1 dar asteapta turisti a 2-a zi.Tot sejurul a fost o umbra care trece pe langa oameni fara a saluta,da impresia ca este suparat ca il deranjam cu prezenta.Nu este facut sa lucreze cu oameni.,mai ales veniti in vacanta.Gradina frumoasa,.Personalul de la curatenie 2 doamne amabile,harnice.Locatia buna,dar nu vom mai merge acolo..A fost foarte neplacut,din cauza administratorului si sotiei acestuia.

Cons:

Unul dintre administratori si sotia cu comportare deplorabila !!nu vom mai alege aceasta locatie.Plaja cu nisip la aprox 250 m . La mare in zona apropiata sunt pietre vulcanice,taioase,nu se poate cobora la apa.

Disappointed in apartment but great location
Pros:

Lovely location central and close to beach
Small and friendly type accommodation
Not very busy around pool only ever approxy12-16 people maximum no need to reserve sunbeds
Comfortable bed and pillows

Cons:

On arrival reception closed (10.30 pm) note left on reception door which apartment was ours and key left in door
Had to pay 7€ a day for air conditioning which we only had in bedroom! Rest of apartment stifling hot unbearable at times!! I thought aircon was included in price paid to booking.com as did not say charge applies on advertisement?
Basic kitchen equipment no toaster or microwave
