スタッフの人と朝食が最高でした！
Pros:

港から近く便利な立地だった。窓からヴェネチア要塞が見えるのも素敵だった。部屋も写真で見るより広く快適だった。朝食もギリシャの色々な食べ物を説明付きで置いてくれていて楽しかった！

Cons:

お風呂にバスタブがついていたが、設備の古さにためか汚れのように見えてバスタブにお湯をためる気にはならなかった。シャワーは快適だった。

Πολύ ωραίο δωμάτιο, καθαρό και άνετο. Το προσωπικό ευγενέστατο και πρόθυμο να εξυπηρετήσει. Θα το συνιστούσα ανεπιφύλακτα.

Étape parfaite pour visiter les vieux quartiers de Héraklion
Pros:

Très bon étape à quelques kilomètres de l’aéroport. L’accueil est chaleureux, le personnel très serviable. Nous avions une grande chambre. Petite piscine mais très agréable.
Localisation parfaite, à quelques minutes de la vieille ville d’Heraklion
Très bonne wi-fi et pkg gratuit

Cons:

Il s’agit d’un grand hôtel qui peut paraître peut-être impersonnel
