Pros:

De locatie was top, op het randje van het centrum waar je in de avond heerlijke taverne's had, TOP
Wij hadden een huurauto tot onze beschikking waar wij heerlijke rustige strandjes op gingen zoeken.
Vriendelijk personeel en een goed ontbijt

Cons:

Puntje van "opbouwende kritiek " de douchecabine mag wel een kleine renovatie krijgen

Byhotell som trenger oppgradering beliggende i støyende område av Rethymnon.
Pros:

Vennlig mottakelse i resepsjonen
Frokosten

Cons:

Dårlig lukt på badet fra ventilasjonssystemet
Trange ganger, trang heis, vond seng, mye støy fra gaten, vanskelige parkeringsforhold i området
For ikke å få ødelagt ferien forlot jeg hotellet etter ett døgn, hadde bestilt 4 døgn. Ingen respons da jeg fortalte resepsjonisten at jeg endret planene.

Hôtel sauvé par son emplacement et la gentillesse de son personnel
Pros:

Son emplacement et son personnel agréable et serviable.

Cons:

- un revêtement de sol dans ma chambre totalement abîmé,
- il manque une porte à la cabine de douche donc salle de bain inondée à chaque utilisation,
- carte d’accès à la chambre ne fonctionne,
- ascenseur en panne au moment de descendre les valises le matin : 5 étages à pied,
- un hôtel qui vieillit mal
