The hotel is located in a lively neighborhood of Platanias with lots of dining options nearby. The room is clean and the staff is friendly and helpful. There is onsite parking but it’s a bit tight to maneuver if you have a full size car. The hotel is only a few minutes walk from Platanias Beach and Agia Marina is less than a mile away.

Check-in was easy and friendly. They accompanied me to the room and made sure it was to my liking and that it had been cleaned. Gave all the info I needed. The room is on the Main Street and the party goes on pretty late in the area… if you’re a light or early sleeper… Room is exactly as shown in pics.

We had a room with private jacuzzi. The tub and the separate shower room were excellent. Room was very clean. There was no staff at check-in and information on breakfast was not explained when we received a phone call about self check-in, therefore we did not have an option to have breakfast. Location is good for walking and beach access, but can be noisy on the street side of the building. Parking was free, but very difficult to maneuver, even in a small car. Overall, nice property at a reasonable price.

The room was very clean, modern and the bed was very comfortable. Our room was facing the Main Street and we heard quite of bit of noise at night. We also had to park our car on the street a few times, cause there wasn’t enough parking in the hotel. The breakfast had few options and was repetitive throughout our stay.

Ända att anmärka på är städningen, när vi fick rummet var de massa hår runt vasken från rakning sant i duschen, även smuts/mögel i vadk och bubbelbadkaret på rummet. Detta var kvar hela vistelsen. Kom även lätt mögeldoft från avloppet i toaletten.
