Pros:

It is a good hotel, the bed is nice, clean, the bathroom really clean and cosy. But it was a bit small with no real closets, and blue lights under the bed which lit up the entire room like a disco. And to get to the hotel was a bit hard because it is located in the middle of a path up the mountain. Which is perfect if you like to walk, but can be a little tricky with luggage or you have an injury

Overall it was a nice hotel, the staff was friendly and would recommend if you are backpacking.

Princess Sissy - Jeg vil tilbake dit!
Pros:

Princess Sissy Hotel`s lokasjon er genial. Jeg har vært på Ios 10-15 ganger før og vet viktigheten av en sentral lokasjon,- og Princess Sisssy Hotels lokasjon er
midt mellom havnen med strand og byens sentrum. Dette gjør at du da har relativt kort gange til disse sentrale stedene med gode busstilbud dersom du ønsker videre transport til eksempelvis strender som Mylopotas eller Manganari.

Jeg valgte et rom med sjøutsikt,- balkongen var fantastisk med en nydelig utsikt over havnen der båtene kommer og tilhørende strand.Det absolutt verd de ekstra pengene.

Ellers var rommet moderne typisk minimalistisk stil og renholdet var bra.

Personalet var hyggelig og med veldig god service.
Eksempelvis forsov jeg meg når jeg skulle ta en tidllig ferje til Santorini for hjemreise.
Hotellets personale gjorde alt de kunne for at jeg skulle nå den ferja og fikk det til slik at jeg tilslutt nådde flyet mitt i Santorini

Oppholdet svarte absolutt til mine forventninger. Og jeg kommer garantert tilbake hit neste år

Pros:

Dejlig rolig lille familie drevet hotel, altid smilende personale og hjælpsomme.
Placering midt mellem bymidten og havnen, hvor der er spise og drikke, begge steder.

Pros:

There were no windows or balcony in the room, the power went out in the island and we almost suffocated with no air.

Pros:

Upon check in we were pleasantly greeted, we were provided with information about the area as well as the hotel. If we do make it back to IOS one day we will most definitely stay here again!

Fräscht boende, funkar bra en till två nätter.
Pros:

Renoverat rum och fräscht. Lite litet. Nära hamnen och 5 min promenad upp till chora. Funkar bra att stanna en till två nätter.

Hôtel pas confortable
Pros:

Ios est une île à visiter. L'hôtel est bien situé mais très vétuste. Les matelas très inconfortables car très vieux. La salle de douche très vétuste et les robinets fonctionnent très mal. Hotel calme.

Pros:

Good location, definitely requires a lot of incline walking to and from Chora as well as the port. Decent room, but no soap, hair dryer, iron or anything at all. Washroom was disgusting and the shower was barely a shower.

Mye for pengene!
Pros:

Oppholdet vårt på dette hotellet var bra, det var hotellrom med veldig fin utsikt og godt renholdt. Badet kunne gjerne hatt en oppdatering, var litt slitt.
Servicen på hotellet var god, og restauranten på hotellet serverte god og billig mat.
Anbefaler hotellet for dem som reiser enten med venner eller som par, var veldig rimelig og fint og sentralt i forholdt til både havnen, busstopp og landsbyen. Drar gjerne her igjen!

Not worth the money
Pros:

The location would be the only adventage. It was pretty close to the beach and port - 5 mins walk down the stairs and the village, restaurats, shops - 5 min up the stairs. The cleaning staff was very kind but the owner was cold and impolite. He told us there is no shop around and wanted us to buy food in the hotel. Me and my husband were supposed to get a double bed room as agreed with the owner on arrival but then he was mixing, changing his mind and finally we got 3 single bed room. The window was totally covered with wooden window shutter and impossible to open so we felt like in a cave. The bathroom was unpleasant, shower didn't have any curtain and the bathroom was all wet toilet was looking dirty. Wifi didnt work at all.

φθηνό και καλό ξενοδοχείο με εξυπηρέτηση, καθαρό και ευρύχωρο ότι πρέπει για για light κατάσταση. βρίσκεται στη μέση μεταξύ λιμανιού και χώρας, ήσυχο αν δε θές βαβούρα (!!)

Budget hotel with good location.
Pros:

The staff is very nice and it has a great little bar to start the night. Mostly young people( it's Ios ) the location is great - in between port and town. Not far from all the parties and bus stops. Not bad. The only problem was they lived out Atvs and broke a lock that cost me 30 euro.

Helt OK
Pros:

Vi reiste sammen tre jenter. er et typisk hotell for unge mennesker som kommer til ios for å være ute om kveldene. det kan være mye bråk på nattestid. Sengene var Ikke gode, men rommene var alltid rene og utsikten fra balkongen fantastisk. Servicen var så som så Ikke mer ikke mindre

Much better than expected. A great stay.
Pros:

We booked to stay here because of its great price, the room and the view was much better than we thought it was going to be for the price. The room is small but not too small and there is a lot of space on the terrace. The bed was very comfortable, which is not always the case in Greece. The views looks over the very Greek scenic port. We like it there so much that we book another 3 nights! The only downside would be that the hotel is half way between the port and the old town and if you were not very able bodied you might struggle.
