Liked: Great value for money, wifi in our room

28 June 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Good location right on the beach and close to other hotels/amenities on the beachfront strip of Amoudara. We arrived on the morning ferry (arrived at Heraklion port at 5am) and the hotel let us check in at 8am. Room was clean, had air conditioning and small balcony. Bathroom was small but clean and sufficient to our needs. Breakfast was decent.

Disliked: Had a fridge in room, but could not keep things inside when we left because the power was controlled by a card that could not be removed from the room key (ie, the power would shut off when you left the room, so the fridge wouldn't work). Directions to hotel provided with email confirmation were not amazing. Look up the address before you go.

Liked: A bit out of town but very close to the beach and the bus doesn't take very long. The rooms are nice and clean and the owner is great and friendly- have a drink with him in the evenings! When coming here by bus keep an eye open for the hotel sign on the left hand side.

03 June 2009 Annelies would recommend this property

Liked: The hotel was close to the city centre, with a bus stop in front of the hotel (5min to the hart of heraklion, €0.90) So no noise from the city at night, but still close enough to go out for a drink at night. The Restaurant served yummy and fresh food with a smile and real Crete charm. The breakfast was very basic ,but good. The room had everything we needed, TV, hairdryer, shower, towels, balcony, airco,... it's not the typical family hotel with the animation team at the pool, but excellent for people who enjoy being out exploring!The staff was very helpfull when we needed it. there's also the posibilty to rent the room for an extra day (if not fully booked i expect) so that you can still have shower and leave the luggage in if your plane leaves at night.Ah! and for the lazy bones: there is an elevator! Anyway, we had a good time and sure enjoyed our stay!
