Convenient location, but far too noisy
Pros:

The location itself is quite convenient, although the hotel is on a busy street, so I imagine the street-facing rooms can be quite noisy as well. The staff were mostly kind and helpful, which I appreciated.

Cons:

The main issue here is the noise. The hotel has very little soundproofing, so you can easily hear doors, TVs, conversations and snoring from neighbouring rooms. The close-set rooms, tiled surfaces and gaps around the doors make everything echo.
Housekeeping was particularly disruptive, with loud chatting, doors slamming and vacuum cleaners hitting walls and doors from around 7:30–8:00 AM. One morning, this continued for hours and made it difficult to sleep or even relax.
I complained and was kindly moved to another room, and things did become quieter towards the end of my stay.
My room faced a rather claustrophobic inner yard, while the hotel itself is on a busy street. Overall, I wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for a quiet or relaxing stay.

Excellent ❤️
Pros:

La proprete des lieux, le Pdj copieux, l amabilité de la direction. Et ses smoothies 🌟🥰

Cons:

Pas apprecie n est vraiment pas le mot, mais iui, la petitesse de la salle de bains. Mais peu important au vu de tout le positif et l emplacement, a deux pas de la plage et du centre historique.

A pleasant stay in Rethymno
Pros:

We had a very pleasant stay here - the rooms were clean and comfortable, with comfy beds and pillows, great A/C, excellent water pressure, and a nice big sink. The breakfast met all our needs, with lots of Greek options as well as eggs, bacon, etc. I liked the varieties of bread and pastry that changed daily! The owners and staff were lovely people, kind and very helpful with buying bus tickets and booking cabs and such. It's a bit of a walk to the town center, but super-close to Rethymno beach, easy to pop back and forth to the hotel if you forget your sunscreen :)

Cons:

Obviously the traffic is beyond the owners' control, but the mopeds in particular can be noisy at all hours. We used a noise-canceling phone app (MyNoise), which helped a lot! Sensitive folks might want to request a room on the side away from the street.

Posizione e colazione ok, non sembra un 3 stelle, bagno insufficente.
Pros:

Buona posizione x visitare la citta',buona colazione,ok aria condizionata.

Cons:

Bagno piccolo,con doccia con tenda, non adatta a un 3 stelle, quasi impossibile trovare un parcheggio nelle vicinanze in agosto, le donne delle pulizie fanno rumore gia' alle 7 del mattino.

God beliggenhet og hyggelig betjening men knøttlite rom
Pros:

Frokosten var helt ok, verken mer eller mindre. Veldig god kaffe.

Cons:

Rommet og balkongen var det minste jeg noen gang har bodd på. Så greit nok for ei natt men hadde ikke klart å bo der i ei uke.

Excellent hotel. Superb service and helpful friendly owners. Would highly recommend.
Pros:

My family and I (wife and three children) stayed at the family-run Astali Hotel for three nights whilst visiting Rethymno for a family wedding. We booked through booking.com and regularly communicated with the Hotel via that app. We had a few requests due to our early arrival and Marios was exceptionally responsive and helpful. The family owners really make you feel very welcome and valued as their guest. The hotel itself is perfectly located and has all amenities you could need. The rooms are spotlessly clean and decorated to a high standard.
I have stayed in many hotels in Europe and beyond before but this was the only hotel which I feel I should strongly recommend.
