"The owners of the Alex also own the Giota opposite and actually put me up there as the Alex was closed - on my arrival some friends of the owners happened by and phoned them to tell them I had arrived (my stay was early March so I think I was the only guest). They were very friendly and spoke good English. The room was clean and comfortable - one downside was the lack of hot water in the shower. The hotel is very close to the waterside tavernas and walking distance to the castle."
