At first glance of the area it looked pretty grim as the weather was poor.The hotel was great though and the staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was lovely, we were on the 6th floor and had a sea view.The balcony was massive, the biggest I've ever seen but the floors below and above us were not as big. We had a huge double bed in the room and a single. The room was very comfortable and a clever sliding door with mesh for keeping out the bugs. A slight annoyance was the lack of power points so I had to move the mirror and prop it up on the bed to plug in the hairdryer (bathroom dryer is like all other bathroom hairdryers, not very powerful). The bathroom was cleaned meticulously every day and towels changed but the shower was dreadful. A flimsy curtain around a tray to stand in so impossible to keep the floor dry, it was more like a wet room which was annoying but typical of greek bathrooms! There was a little park type forest area opposite the hotel where packs of dogs roamed freely. On our first night they barked and howled all night but were ok after that, just a few barks now and again. We are dog lovers so it didn't bother us and they were very friendly and appreciated the scraps of food we took them. The surrounding area of the hotel wasn't overwhelmingly attractive and there weren't many good restaurants, just cafe's/snack bars and a few shops. Pleased with this hotel but the middle peninsula is much prettier with stunning views.
