dobra lokalizacja, b.przyjazny personel - idealny na city-break
Pros:

Dobra lokalizacja (10min do plaży), urozmaicone śniadania + bdb i pomocna obsługa recepcji. @ ok. hotel w ścisłym centrum, blisko najważniejszych atrakcji miasta

Cons:

w pokoju i łazience przydałby się refresh. na krótszy pobyt nie jest to problemem, ale na dłużej - tak. w Retymnie kiepsko z parkingami.

Pros:

Οι κοινόχρηστοι χώροι και το πολύ πλούσιο πρωινό

Cons:

Το δωμάτιο απαίσιο.....πάρα πολύ μικρό.......το κρεβάτι ήταν πολύ κοντο...,... Το στρώμα παλιό και τα σίδερα δεν σου επιτρέπαν να κοιμηθείς ............ Ντροπή να βάζετε ανθρώπους να κοιμούνται σε τέτοιο κρεβάτι
