Very pleasant 4 star hotel with comfortable large beds and good sized rooms. Hotel rooms are beginning to be a little dated with no remote control of the A/C and the wall control taped up to prevent changes of the mode or set a sleep timer. Bathroom was large but also in need of an update. Hotel is well situated for both beaches and a short walk from the main pedestrianised restaurant and bar areas. Or room was very quiet but roadside rooms may be noisier

I liked the property overall. The room was spacious and there were a lot of drawers and storage space, which are important to me. The bathroom was spacious and had nice amenities. I appreciated the robe. The pool area was very enjoyable. Most of the personnel were very friendly - with the exception of the person who checked us in. She was not welcoming and was unhelpful. The bartender was extremely welcoming and personable. (Sorry, don't recall his name.) Breakfast was very good. Would stay again.

Like the bed and bathroom, roomy and quiet. Sauna and jacuzzi reqire reservation and not available if someone books before you. Not really able to use the pool because we stayed at the nice beach out in town, very clean water and so close to the hotel. So, overall, just used the room to sleep. We Should have booked a much cheaper hotel in town since we went out all day and went out eat and shopping until dark. Hotel front desk and workers are nice, though. No complaint.

Fair stay without any view.
Pool was very cold, not nice and a bit dirty. No views (in city, street view with balcony on street). The wide angle views of the hotel's pictures give an inappropriate view. The setup for me was more like 3 stars. Nevertheless, the stay was fair. The area with beaches is great. But next time, I will not stay here but book a bed & breakfast with better views

Response from Vassiliki on 6 Jul 2019
Dear Wouter, First of all thank you for staying with us. You made your reservation on the 29th of June and you checked in on the 30th, so it was a last minute reservation and probably you had the last room available. Some people like to stay in rooms similar with the one you had some other prefer the floor. But as it was a last minute reservation we were not flexible to change you room. As far as the pool is concerned you should know that this is an open-air pool, not heated (as is mentioned), so depending on the temparature it can be hot or cold water. We try to keep all the areas of the hotel spotless and clean. But the day you were here if you can recall it was a very strong wind (7-8 bf) which made it impossible to keep the pool as clean as it should be (leaves from the surrounding trees). Thank you for your time Vassiliki
