Sehr gute und freundliche Behandlung durch manolis. Er war immer hilfsbereit und jederzeit ansprechbar. Besser geht nicht.

Leuk, authentiek, klein hotel, met vriendelijke eigenaar en personeel die je het echt naar de zin willen maken.
Pros:

De kamer (één van de gerenoveerde kamers op de bovenste verdieping) was prachtig en was voorzien van een koelkastje, waterkoker en nespressoapparaat. De matrassen waren perfect. Fijn dat het totaal niet gehorig was. De eigenaar en het personeel waren vriendelijk.

Cons:

De naam van het hotel heeft ons enigszins misleid; al vroeg in de middag was er (iig in okt) bijna geen zon meer op het balkon. Ook het zwembad lag aan de schaduwkant; hier hebben we dan ook geen gebruik van gemaakt. Het hotel komt (muv de bovenste verdieping) wat gedateerd over, maar dit had ook zijn charme.

Voor een weekend een super fijn verblijf.
Pros:

Wanneer je binnenkomt ziet het hotel er oubollig uit. Wij hadden een 2-persoons dekluxe kamer. Deze kamer bevond zich op de bovenste verdieping (5e). Dit zijn aardig wat trappen lopen er is geen lift. De kamer was volledig gerenoveerd met een mooi dakterras. Het uitzicht is hier waanzinnig.
Werden vriendelijk ontvangen door Nederlands sprekende dame en zij was erg behulpzaam. Bij uitchecken een erg vriendelijke Griekse man die graag even een praatje maakte.

Cons:

Veel trappen, verouderd hotel en dit zie je in receptie ontbijt gedeelte.

An adequate hotel.
Pros:

The hotel was more than adequate for my needs. Enough for one night.

Cons:

There were quite a few steps to go up to your room being built on a hillside. The breakfast was OK. There were quite a few smokers there which I am sensitive to. Somewhat dated.

We had a wonderful stay, staff, location, room, pool, breakfast were as expected. Thank you Manolis.
Pros:

The kindness and willing to help of the staff was very nice, the hotel was very clean, the view from room and pool was beautiful, the room was as expected small and no luxury but very sufficient, a ceiling fan could have been a + the huge balcony was very nice the location of the hotel. Hotel was full but very quiet. Be aware hotel have a lots of steps to go upstairs no elevator :-)

Cons:

Breakfast could have been with more variety been a +. AC should be included in the price or very specify in hotel info that 5Euro/day will be charged if you want the AC, note that no ceiling fan in the rooms
