Negatives: Dingy dark rooms. Weak, non-adjustable shower . Broken, rickety shower screen that leaked water onto the floor. No shelf in bathroom for toiletries Old, tired tiles and decor. Rooms extremely basic, no provisions other than a cheap, plasticky tiny bar of soap that melted when you used it. Could feel the springs through the mattress. No kettle in room. Tiny balcony overlooking broken, dirty water feature. No pool towels provided. Extremely basic breakfast, just a bit of fruit, dried cakes, over heated eggs - we ended up going out every day for breakfast. Coffee machine broken for 2 days before it was fixed. Badly arranged breakfast area where everyone fought over one tiny corner for cups, spoons, hot water and coffee. Hotel is surrounded by noisy, main roads. Plastic bags and wet wipe at bottom of pool one day, everyone's sun cream floating on the water as there is no poolside shower. 3 umbrellas at pool-side, 4 empty stands missing umbrellas so it was hard to get shade. Tired, grubby paintwork all over the hotel, a refresh would make a world of difference. Dead looking cacti all around the grounds. You cannot operate the electricity whilst you're out of your room as the electricity card is attached to the door keys, so you can't charge phone etc whilst you're at the pool. Positives: Pool is huge and great for swimming in (when clean) Lovely staff, especially Katerina, Stefania and Mariella, who were helpful friendly and kind, and provided maps, a portable umbrella for the beach and Katerina was exceedingly helpful when we damaged our hire car, she made a very stressful situation much easier. Brilliant location, easily walkable into the Chora. There are fantastic restaurants and bars starting within a 5 minute walk of the hotel, and you're in the old town within 10. There is a nice looking open air cinema a minute away from the hotel if that's your thing. Useful, well stocked supermarket is right next door to the hotel. The upside of being on such a busy main road is that you can get around easily by car or bus to all the main parts of the island. This is a hotel of two halves, and staying there did not ruin our trip at all because there were some positives and it was so well located, but it is nothing like it looks in the photos in reality. Some elements mean it's a push to call it 3 stars, more like a 2 star with a great pool. All it would take would be a lick of paint inside and out, some nice plants, better quality breakfast, umbrellas round the whole pool and a few basic provisions in the rooms. But keep the staff, they are the hotel's real selling point, and if you're on a budget, it does the job. It was booked for us by a travel agent so we not sure of the overall cost but per night prices seem reasonable.
