Lovely hotel - Wondeful reception staff
Check in was really good, two staff members were very helpful, cheery and smiled. Rooms are very clean, beds are amazing, lovely shower. Breakfast was excellent and great to be able to take breakfast at 7am before leaving for Port. Staff helpful with travel questions and arranging taxi. Also helped with laundry cleaning and providing the service for cheap €12. Amazing staff member on check out, same as check in, greeted with a smile and very helpful arranging a taxi to Port.

I enjoyed the breakfast. After that it was downhill. There was an extremely noisy party going on of 50 teenagers plus another of 25 young adults. Slamming doors, loud laughter in the halls. Knocks on my door, pounding on the walls… They were on all floors. Bed is not good Shower floods. But mostly… I asked three different people if I could keep excess luggage in their storage until my return on Friday from Rhodes and I was told that both Linda and I could do it with no problem. Yet, after packing for the four days in Rhodes carefully in other cases, I was told by the clerk at the desk that 5am morning of departure,I could not. Why was t I told before? Earlier? It was terribly upsetting having to completely repack moments befor getting into my cab.

It's ok - it's nothing fancy, not so comfortable
It was ok for one night stay. The place feels shabbier in reality than on the pictures. The lobby had a strange odor and the bed was rather a small double bed (1.40m) and the room smaller than expected. Nevertheless, it was ok for one night stay, good location, 24 hours reception, good breakfast (much better than what we've expected), and quite clean. We paid a very good price so it was a very good value for money for this stay.
