Very healthy breakfasts. It is really perfect for me for 10 days plus 1 more day adding later for waiting my ferry.
Very clean.

Cons:

One time , The big group of guests came at late night were too loud! To wake me up.

But that is without hotel control;)

I love Patmos and my hotel room had a view of Hora. However I felt the hotel could have been better
Pros:

I really love Patmos and the previous hotel I stayed at was closed. So I booked Hotel Effie on recommendations. I liked the location and felt the price was reasonable

Cons:

No water or tea making facilities were provided which I had got at previous locations. The reception was unmanned and it was only because of previous visits to Patmos I knew my way round and didn’t need help.

Comfortable and relaxing hotel.
Pros:

Breakfast was cold buffet continental style. Hotel was in a pleasant setting in a quiet location but a short walk from the resort centre with plenty of bars, restaurants and shops. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

To reach the hotel there was a bit of a hill to walk up.
