Een grote sof!!!!!!
Pros:

Wij zijn er niet gebleven dus hierover kunnen wij niets zeggen, er beviel ons niets.

Cons:

Alles!!!! Er was niemand aanwezig, daar kregen wij wel een bericht over, maar de taverne was helemaal verlaten. Bovendien stond alles vol rommel en was er van het mooie terras met bloemen en de gezellige eetruimten niets te vinden.
Wij moesten op zoek naar de sleutel en uiteindelijk na een paar telefoontjes was dit in een gebouw verder in het dorp, dat wij na veel zoeken gevonden hebben. Dit was dan ook helemaal verlaten en in de kamer lagen wel handdoeken klaar maar voor ons was deze kamer helemaal niet wat er op de site te zien was. Wij zijn dan terug vertrokken en naar een ander hotel op zoek gegaan. Op de foto's kan je zien wat er van het idyllische kader te vinden was . Wij begrijpen niet hoe een zaak zo kan vervallen op blijkbaar korte tijd. Ik heb spijt dat ik niet meer foto's genomen heb.

A warm welcome in an idyllic location.
Pros:

Very warm and welcoming proprietors. I was very impressed at the breadth of choice on the menu considering this is a remote area. Extremely good value. The views from my window were fabulous. Also very bike friendly - no problem in safety storing my bicycle.

Pros:

Amazing location for hikes in the Crete mountains. The couple that owns the hotel are incredibly nice and caring. Led us to the hotel right after we got off our bus and made us food once our stay was over before we left Fourfouras. One of the best hotel experiences I’ve had.

Overall an amazing place for a short stay
Pros:

Totally recommended for a peacefull and rustic stay.The staff of the place are awesome people.The room is not too spacious but it was comfortable enough with basic amenities that covered my needs.Local food in the restaurant was amazing,tasty and value for money.I was covered up by the staff of any concern i had about my accomodation.The hotel isn't in the same location as the restaurant but 200 metres away (By the moment the owners clarify that hotel and restaurant are in different location and they offer on demand free transfer for me is not a problem).The owners gave me also any information i needed about the area

Cons:

Nothing at all.The rooms could be more spacious but no problem since they are comfortable enough.

Pros:

It had a Marble stairs. The wiew to The mountins

Cons:

It is needed a renovation. The wind was blowing unde the door and opened it. There were flies, in the room and bathroom. No way it has 35 square meters, maximum 22 sq m, it is very, very tiny.
I saw a similar hotel în Malia had 4,5/10 on Booking so this place is overrated.
