Pros:

Ein in die Jahre gekommenes Hotel. Zimmrreinigung findet scheinbar nur alle 2 Tage statt, nach unserer Einschätzung etwas oberflächlich. Lage ist gut und ruhig. In der Umgebung sind zahlreiche Möglichkeiten Essen zu gehen.
Frühstück gab es in einem benachbarten Café.
Alles in allem war es ok für einen 8 tägigen Aufenthalt, dennoch würden wir dort nicht wieder absteigen.

Pros:

Hôtel qui mériterait une petite rénovation. Manque de rangement dans les chambres et salle de bain vétuste. Mais au vu du prix c’est tout à fait correct.

Pros:

We really liked the host — he was very courteous, friendly, and pleasant, and he wanted everything to be perfect for us.
It’s a very lovely family-run business. He provided lots of information and was always open to questions. We were allowed to park in the driveway and also had some nice conversations with him. The room was good, and we received fresh towels every three days.

Pros:

Accueil sympathique du responsable, hôtel face à la route départementale et chambre assez rustique, mal insonorisée.
Paiement de notre séjour en liquide, seul moyen proposé.

Pros:

Der blev ikke gjort ordentligt rent, kun lige svinget en gulvmobbe. Vi fik ikke skiftet sengetøj en hel uge, selvom lagner lugtede surt, vi fik skiftet håndklæder engang imellem men de var i skidt stand. Service blev bare vasket med vand og stadig pletter efter kaffe osv. poolen var enormt beskidt i bunden. Det virkede som om den blev renset men det kunne ikke ses. Enormt lydt. Poolbaren var lukket helt ned.

Pros:

The receptionist (maybe the owner?) was kind and helpful. The area is beautiful and good connections everywhere. Very good restaurants around. The room was good enough for our stay. Room was cleaned nicely, but there were some small things about cleanliness not worthy to even mention.

Only thing I was wondering, was some contradictional information. The door of the room had some info papers. One said that the bedlinen and towels will be changed every 4 days. Another said about covid and that these same things will take place only by request.

Also on the walls in the lobby were rules about silent time: one said 21-8, one said 22-8 and I think one said 23-8. I did not bother to ask. But Im curious anyway.

All in all, I definately recommend this hotel!

Pros:

We arrived from our flight early morning and the owner let us check in early since the room was vacant. After a long time travelling, this kind gesture was very appreciated. The owner is kind and soft spoken.

Pros:

Excellent service. Very kind people. Mr. Manolis, the owner was very kind and hospitable. The staff was great! Fotini who took care of our room is a sweet girl and very good at her job. The hotel is located next to the beach. I recommend the hotel if you wan't a simple room with balcony by the beach. The hotel also has a pool and parking service.

Pros:

The location is excellent, close to the beach, tavernas & shops. The pool was fine but you can't get so much as a drink or a snack there. The rooms are adequate but dated, most of the power points didn't work so you have the choice of kettle or fridge. The staff are very friendly and helpful when you can find someone. The big downside was that we had a late flight both ways, reception was shut when we arrived but a key was left outside (which I wouldn't have known if I hadn't rung) going back we had to pay an extra e30 to have somewhere to leave our bags and have a shower. Overall it was fine to lay your head and not expensive but a few little changes would make it good.
