Reviews and Ratings
I stayed at this hotel and found it to have a great location near the beach and some nice restaurants. The rooms were never cleaned during my stay, although the beds were made daily. The service was prompt and efficient, ensuring car hire and other requests were met quickly. The proximity to the beach was a major plus, but the lack of proper room cleaning was disappointing.
The hotel offers comfortable rooms with good design and air conditioning. The service was prompt, including options for car hire, housekeeping, laundry, and tours. Its location is ideal, close to the beach and the old town with charming Greek taverns. The dining experience includes pasta. However, the rooms were not cleaned thoroughly, and the beds were never changed.
