In realtà non è un hotel, è più un b&b: la camera era molto spaziosa, al piano terra, con bagno e cucinino, zona giardino dove stendere e prendere una boccata d'aria fresca, e la piscina è bellissima. Marieta è una ragazza giovane e sempre attenta alle esigenze dei clienti...l'unico problema è che è distante da tutto, ma questo non è colpa di nessuno, Cefalonia è molto rurale e ha pochi centri abitati tutti sparsi per l'isola. Comunque consigliato per chi vuole rilassarsi e stare tranquillo, in coppia o in famiglia!

This is a mixed review. The hotel itself is in a perfect location. The breakfast was fine, and the young ladies who worked the breakfast buffet were wonderful. We knew we were getting a small room, it was a last minute booking. And, we expected to be a little cramped. The furniture was too big for the room. We had to bob and weave to get by each other. The 2 bedside plugs stopped working, we reported it but nothing was done. It seemed to us that the reception staff pretended to care but I think it was just a show. The internet was very slow, we asked about it and we were told they would look into it…nothing was done. The shower was horrible, poorly placed shower head.At one point I went down to ask for a bucket of ice (which they DID provide), but couldn’t find anyone. I finally found the young man about 20 minutes later, in the back, kicking back! The evening reception (older gentleman) was very nice and did give us a late check out…but he forgot to inform the day reception…so we got a call asking us to vacate. If you book this hotel avoid room 109. We saw other rooms of the same size and those rooms had nice furniture and those rooms felt roomy. We could not change rooms until the last night (we were there for 9 nights), but we thought that was just a waste, so we didn’t move rooms. Good location, bad room!
