Pros:

Πολύ καλή καθαριότητα καθημερινά από τις κυρίες. Γενικά το προσωπικό ήταν φιλικό και πρόθυμο να εξυπηρετήσει. Συνολικά το κατάλυμα έχει καλή σχέση ποιότητας τιμής.

An average two-star hotel with pros and cons.
Pros:

The staff were very nice. The pool and the bar add to the appeal of the hotel. I could rent a car from the hotel so I didn't have to look for a car rental service in the city. The beach, some shops and bars are pretty close to the hotel. We were offered an airport transfer, which was convenient, the driver was very kind and helpful.

Cons:

The room could have been cleaner and in better condition especially the bathroom. The breakfast was adequate but do not expect something special. As the hotel is located at a roundabout, it was a bit noisy because of the heavy traffic.

Pros:

Good location, and the place is not overcrowded. It’s a 5-minute walk to the sandy beach. Cafés and restaurants are all around, offering fast food, local cuisine, and Mediterranean cuisine. The old town of Rhodes is also reachable within a 15-minute walk.

The hotel has a swimming pool and a billiard table.

The room was clean and quiet, with a balcony.

The staff were polite and welcoming.

Car rental is available at the reception.

Breakfast was fine, although it was the same every day.

Cons:

For those who care about room size: the room is smaller than the advertised 20 sq. m. It is approximately 12 sq. m. Not a big issue if you use the room mainly for sleeping and resting.

Excellent location and a lovely welcoming hotel.
Pros:

The location was perfect- close to the main town and historic areas, but also 5 minutes from a lovely beach and walking distance to the port. The staff were so friendly and helpful and it was nice being in a family run hotel. The hotel is in a residential area and was quiet, yet with all the services you need close by. The room was simple, clean and ideal for a short stay. We visited lovely restaurants nearby. Breakfast was plentiful with a lot of choice. Would absolutely recommend to others and happily return for another visit,

Cons:

Nothing-

Very nice
Pros:

Very nice staff and good location. Also extremely clean. good value for money!

Cons:

Airconditioning was a bit loud, and the pool was next to a busy street (but you were a bit lower so people could only see you if they were close)

Top prijs-kwaliteit in rhodes!
Pros:

Het hotel wordt gerund door een familie. Heel vriendelijk personaal. De accommodatie is super proper, je kamer wordt bijna dagelijks gekuist.
De kamer, badkamer en balkon is in goede staat. De locatie is rustig gelegen , 2minuten van een zand strand en 25min van het drukke centrum. Het is even stappen maar dat weet je op voorhand. Prijs-kwaliteit is TOP!

Cons:

Het ontbijt is hetzelfde, maar dit vinden wij niet erg. genoeg mogelijkheden om te lunchen buiten het hotel.

Senza lode e senza infamia
Pros:

Vetri insonorizzati, buona climatizzazione.
Letti comodi. Molto vicino alla spiaggia e alla città vecchia.

Cons:

Colazione molto limitata nella scelta, di qualità appena sufficiente. Caffè solo americano, se si desiderava un caffè espresso erano 2,20 euro in piu.
Bagno piccolo, lavandino crepato e porta che non si chiudeva bene.
Assenza di stendino (in una località di mare!)
Piscina molto piccola, e comuqnue circondata da una strada trafficata.
