Very close to port and bus terminal
Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025

6/10

Great location for ferry port and central bus station access, but a bit of a walk from the main city center. Also not very many dining or shopping options in the immediate area.

The room was small but spotless and the bed was very comfortable. I found a great Taverna 5 minutes walk away and it's 5 min from the bus station and 10 min walk from the Port

It s a budget hotel centrally located close to the port. It is not boutique by any stretch of the imagination. It is small, clean and adequate for a budget conscious traveler.

Was suitable for one night as close to airport and early flight in the morning. Friendly staff. No complaints.

Walking distance to old town
Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023

8/10

The staff were the best. So helpful and knowledgeable and friendly. The area of town wasn’t the nicest. It was a short walk to downtown, buses to everywhere, the old port, and the cruise ship terminal. The hotel was clean and quiet.

6/10

The location was perfect for the ferry. The beds were uncomfortable, it’s on a busy street, and the bar was not particularly accommodating. Our room was not ready and we had to wait over 30 mins for it despite arriving 2 hours after check in time.

This property was atrocious. We went to checks in and there was billed proof glass at the counter, a huge panel of security monitors visible in the lobby and it is on a terrible street. I attempted to give it the benefit of the doubt and when I went upstairs the hallway has wires dangling from what appeared to be a ripped out security camera. The room was dirty as is couldn’t even use the restroom, I saw evidence of bed bugs and there was literally a window that showed into the room from the hall that passing guests could look in. We were in the room 1.5 minutes bf immediately leaving and notifying reception we would not be staying bc it was dirty and unsafe - they refuses to reverse the charge they made just moments before. I immediately booked another location and filed a charge back. DO NOT BOOK HERE. You have been warned
