Bradley GirardThe property is absolutely amazing. I have never been at such a picturesque hostel, and hey the price cant be beat. In many ways the hostel earns its reputation, but I did also feel that its reputation has created a bit of a strange vibe. It seems less like a hostel and more like a community. That can of course be a great thing, but Chris the owner can be quite short with you unless you seem to have found your way into the community. For me, it was just a short stay, and I felt some weird pressure to make best friends with everyone at the hostel, and because it was such a short stay, Chris was not particularly friendly with me. That being said, I cannot complain too much, all sorts of insider information is provided, and as i said before, absolutely beautiful. just know what you are getting yourself into. |

Kris MacGregorIt was amazingly clean and Chris, the manager was a treat to meet and get to know. The grounds were immaculately manicured- I felt like I was at a resort. The traditional hostel feeling simply doesn't exist there. It's an experience all its own and should I ever be back to Crete, it will be my first stop. Easily the nicest hostel I've ever seen. |
