Failed to meet the glowing reports (Fabulous. 8.6) of the Booking.com online reviews.
Pros:

Unable to judge, as we decided to stay there for just one night.

Cons:

Unpleasant shower, with a rusty drain hole. Extremely noisy location, with microphone commentaries and music lasting into the early hours.

No lift available up to our first floor room.

Pros:

Atmosfæren, beliggenheten, personalet. Vecchio føles mer som et feriehus enn som et hotell. Veldig avslappet, utrolig fine fellesområder og perfekt beliggenhet.

Kiva paikka, voin mennä uudelleen 🙂
Pros:

Sijainti oli täydellinen. Keidas keskellä vanhaakaupunkia.

Cons:

Aamiainen oli vähän tylsä, kaksi aamua kyllä meni, mutta viikko samaa ei olisi.
Siivous tuli joskus kolmen aikaan,jolloin olimme jo "siestaa" viettämässä.

Great location, great pool just an unfortunate issue in the bathroom which made it difficult to use
Pros:

The location was perfect and situated right in the centre. The pool area was very quiet and peaceful. The breakfast also had many different selections of meat and food.

Cons:

Unfortunately the air conditioning piping was leaking in our bathroom. This caused the room to flood.

Heerlijk verblijf, midden in Rethymnon
Pros:

De ruime grote, hoge kamer, de airco en het heerlijke zwembad

Cons:

Ontbijt een beetje. Geen lekkere koffie, en theewater ook niet echt heet. Geen fruitsalade. Weinig soorten broodjes.
Wel prachtige netjes verzorgde ruimte om te zitten ontbijten.

Pros:

L'emplacement de l'hôtel dans la vieille ville, mais sans nuisance sonore en fait un écrin privilégié. La piscine dans le patio est très bien entretenue et permet un reel moment de detente après une journée bien remplie!
Le personnel est charmant et attentif, parfait pour une étape au calme

Cons:

La salle de bain du logement meriterait un rafraichissement. Porcelaine cassée, joints vieillissants etc... mais rien d'impossible :)

Historische Villa, zentral
Pros:

Netter Service, Besitzer spricht neben Englisch auch Deutsch. Pool, Kühlschrank und Air-condition inklusive. Schönes, hiistorisches Ambiente einer venezianischen Stadtvilla. Zentral gelegen, trotzdem ist es im Haus und Patio ruhig. Sauber.

Cons:

Autos gelangen nicht bis ans Hotel (autofreie Innenstadt), Parkplätze sind in der Stadt schwierig zu finden und ein Fußmarsch zum Hotel ist notwendig (einmal angekommen, profitiert man von der zentralen Lage im Ausgehviertel). Das Hotel liegt in einer kleinen Gasse, die schwierig zu finden ist, eine detaillierte Information zum Finden wäre hilfreich (Tip: Hotel liegt wenige Meter vom bekannten Rimondi - Brunnen entfernt). Möblierung ist in die Jahre gekommen, erfüllt aber ihren Zweck. Frühstück könnte abwechslungsreicher sein und sich an griechischem Stil orientieren.
