Pros:

If you want to immerse yourself in the quiet, peaceful, and authentic side of Greece, I highly recommend this hotel. We spent two wonderful days there. The authenticity of the place truly impressed us. The breakfast was excellent, and the hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming. The sea is just a 3-minute walk away at a leisurely pace. I hope we’ll come back someday for sure ☺️

Pros:

L'emplacement au top. Petit quartier hôtelier très sympa. La chambre à l'étage avec la petite terrasse.
La terrasse couverte et le petit déjeuner.

Cons:

La chambre au RDC peu lumineuse, manque un peu de déco pour égayer...Le parking au bout de la rue payant même pour les clients de l'hôtel (5 euros par jour même si vous stationnez 1h, les gardiens très désagréables et agressifs), l'accueil a l'hôtel peu jovial mais cela c'est amélioré le lendemain ....

Charmant petit Hôtel au calme dans le centre de Matala
Pros:

Joli petit hôtel dans une rue calme au centre de Matala. Parking en partie ombragé au bout de la rue 5€/jour.
La personne à l'accueil est très accueillante et sympathique.
Une belle terrasse pour prendre un très bon petit déjeuner. La chambre en rez-de-chaussée avec terrasse extérieure était bien.
Très bon séjour d'une nuit pour visiter Matala.
A recommander !

Substandard-Unterkunft im Zentrum von Matala, nicht zu empfehlen
Pros:

Die Lage im Zentrum. Sonst nichts.

Cons:

Winziges, schmuddeliges Zimmer im Erdgeschoss, trostloser Außenbereich mit Blick auf eine 2 m entfernte Mauer. Die Matraze war zu weich und hatte eine Plastikoberfläche, sodass man beim Liegen schwitzte. Winziges Bad mit einer Dusche, in der man nicht aufrecht stehen konnte. Nackte Glühbirnen als Beleuchtung. Küchenausstattung: ein Waserkocher, ein Kühlschrank, sonst nichts.
