Immer wieder gern
Das Hotel ist im alten Teil der Stadt gelegen und hat dadurch eine sehr angenehme und recht ruhige Lage (waren aber auch nach der Hauptsaison dort). Zu Supermärkten bzw. Restaurantes und Bars/Clubs sind es nur ca. 10-15min. Der Strand ist auch nicht allzu weit, außer man möchte etwas abseits von Hotels baden, dann sollte man ca. 30min zu Fuß einplanen, was sich aber gelohnt hat. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und die Zimmer mit Küchenzeile auch spitze. In heißen Nächten sollte man jedoch die Klimaanlage gegen ein paar Euro in Anspruch nehmen, da man sonst kein Auge zu macht. Das Frühstück würde ich allerdings nicht unbedingt empfehlen, da man danach definitiv nicht satt ist. Wir haben dann die restlichen Tage auf dem Zimmer gefrühstückt schließlich ist von Besteck über Kühlschrank und Herd alles vorhanden.

Hôtel très agréable. Situé dans un joli quartier.
Très bon séjour dans cet hôtel. personnel très accueillant à l'écoute de vos demandes. Très calme et en même temps proche du centre ville. Si vous cherchez la plage , il faut marcher 2 km. Nombreuses locations de quad, ce qui permet de bien visiter les environs et découvrir de jolis bords de mer (entre 25 et 30 euros la journée).
Petit bémol: la clim et wi fi ne sont pas compris dans le prix.

Hôtel confortable et propre, personnel aimable. Le seul "hic" est la climatisation payante et le wifi après minuit.

struttura nuovissima molto pulita a 10 minuti dal mare personale gentile potrebbero fare pulizie nelle camere almeno 3 volte alla settimana ma non lo fanno per cui devi chiederlo tu e lo fanno una volta ma non fanno i letti.sicuramente e' da consigliare ma Malia la zona in cui si trova la struttura non e' il posto più' bello di creta.
