First time in Skala and we will be back to stay here!
Pros:

The staff was very friendly with lots of great recommendations! The location is also perfect: close enough to walk to everything but far enough to be quiet at night.

Cons:

The only downside (which is very minor) was the shower came with a soap dispenser but no obvious shampoo or conditioner. We easily grabbed a small bottle from the local market though.

Absolutely shocking, Customer Service from Natalie's!
Pros:

Plus points:
Price. Pool. Location.
Immediate offer of a refund when it was discovered that 'The System', had wrongly accepted the booking, I would therefore have to move during the stay.
The very prompt response from Booking.com to address the issue when the refund had been received. Plus, the very kind offer of up to EUR 60 should any new accommodation be more expensive (same dates/length).

Cons:

Minus points:
The first thing that was said to me by a overly surly receptionist was; "We sent you a email, so were expecting a call from you!" From then, it went downhill really fast.
I explained to the unsmiling receptionist, I had only just obtained internet access (esim), so retrieving emails had only recently been possible, which is why they had received no response.
The unfriendly Receptionist, then explains that due to the 'System', making a mistake, the booking should not have been accepted, to which I responded; "That's disappointing."
After disagreeing further over who was actually responsible for the error, the brusque Receptionist suggested that I speak directly to the Manager, which I then did.
Consequently, when I cordially pointed out to the Manager that to a paying customer (me), Natalie's was 'The System', therefore Natalie's needed to accept ownership of the Failure of Service here, I received strong push-back from said Manager, who thought that simply by increasing her volume level, and talking over me, all would be settled.
Whilst the repeated offer of a full refund was appreciated, I honestly felt it was partially offered in order for me to simply go away, and stop being such a nuisance. Please bear in mind, it was 19:15 on a Sunday evening, with few options available to a lone traveller, bar prehaps the beach for the night.
I finished the conversation with the Manager, and stated that her attitude was wholly unacceptable, so do please issue the refund and I'll move on accordingly.
The young receptionist actually appeared a mite surprised by this, and softly, if not kindly asked if I would like any help with finding alternative accommodation?
I said..."No, thank you. I'll take it from here." I then left, but 15 minutes after walking through the front door.
To where? I had absolutely no idea.

Good value for money , rethink the bedroom up marble narrow stairs
Pros:

A amazing hotel , well situated , pool area was clean and well staffed
Hote staff were absolutely 💯 % amazing
Room was clean well equipped, maybe a toaster
But thats being picky 🙄 overall a very good experience

Cons:

Only downfall was the situation of our room
Up a very steep marble staircase this isn't pratical for suitcases and for us , and we sre relatively quite fit 60+ , going forward if to book again we wouldn't want this room even at a reduced rate
