I’d say this is a very quiet hotel. On the first night the air conditioning wasn’t working in my room which made it very difficult to sleep. They fixed the issue immediately. I did notice that the cleaners didn’t change the bed sheets and they didn’t give me clean towels on my first night. I didn’t spend that much time in the area but it seemed safe. The breakfast had a wide variety to choose from. The pool doesn’t open until around 9.30 and closes at 6pm and the bar was only open 9-11pm

Bel hôtel mais on a eu chaud et soif

Joli hôtel avec piscine agréable et la plage en face. Le personnel est sympathique. Le petit déjeuner est top. Le buffet du soir est très bien, moins de choix que sur nos précédents hôtels de notre séjour en Crète mais des plats de meilleure qualité, plus de faits "maison". Par contre, la climatisation était défectueuse, elle s'apparente plus à un ventilateur. Nous avons eu chaud. Et ce qui ne nous a pas du tout plu c'est qu'on nous a interdit de boire l'eau que nous avions apportée. Il fallait acheter leur bouteille en supplément car nous étions en demi-pension et non en all inclusive. Nous n'avons jamais vu ça !!! Refusez à quelqu'un de boire de l'eau alors qu'il fait 40 degrés. Tout ça pour une bouteille à 2€, nous avons trouvé cela très très mesquin. Pas dans l'esprit crétois. Dommage

Super bra overnattingsted!

Overnattet en natt! Alt fint, eneste minus må være pga klimaanlegget da den ikke blåste kaldt nok etter flere forsøk og at det ikke kunne la stå åpent mens du var borte. Så det var litt varmt ila kvelden! Herlig frokostbuffet, med ekte egg og ikke eggepulver!!

Familiengeführtes Hotel in ruhiger Lage

Bei diesem Hotel handelt es sich um ein kleines familiengeführtes Hotel. Die Atmosphäre ist ruhig. Frühstück wird mit wechselnden Gerichten als Buffet ab 07:30 Uhr gereicht. Sehr ruhige Lage, prima Strecke zum Joggen direkt am Meer. Ein kleiner Ort mit Restaurants direkt am Meer ca. 500 Meter entfernt. Als Ausgangspunkt für Kretas beste Strände zu empfehlen.

Hôtel sympathique adapté pour faire une étape

L'hôtel est sympathique mais se trouve dans un coin un peu isolée. Accès à pied de la plage (plage de galet). Beaux environnements extérieurs. Chambre un peu sommaire, équipement minimum. Literie pas très confortable. Salle de bain laisse à désirer. Personnel souriant et avenant. Hôtel adapté pour un court séjour. Si c'est pour un long séjour, vous risquez d'être déçus.
