Myślę, że na wyspie można znaleźć jakościowo lepsze miejsca jednak cena rekompensowała
Pros:

Blisko do lotniska, po wypożyczeniu auta bez problemu można było zostawić przed hotelem, cicha okolica.
Czysto i codziennie sprzątany pokój. Do plaży 10-15 min.

Cons:

Jedzenie nie najlepsze... drinki w barze pomimo dużego wyboru wszystkie smakowały tak samo.

It was a lovely location and very relaxing
Pros:

Location was great and staff were very friendly

Cons:

Reception area could be worked on. Bar in the main dining room would need to be somewhere else as was not ideal in the dinner area.

Perfect verblijf en dichtbij het vliegveld
Pros:

De bedden waren perfect en alles was schoon.
Het personeel was super vriendelijk en als er iets was werd je meteen geholpen

Cons:

De douche duurde best lang voordat het warm werd. Je moet het een paar minuten aan laten en dan word het uit eindelijk wel warm.

Cons:

Hairdryer not near a mirror. Food can get a bit repetitive. On the street foods night no gyros. In Greece gyros is the number one street food.
