I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, just a short stroll from the stunning Koukounaries Beach and other lovely beaches. The staff were genuinely some of the kindest I've encountered, and the meals at the restaurant were delicious. While the hotel exudes charm, it could benefit from some modernization, especially in the bathrooms. Overall, it's a great value for money with several local attractions easily accessible.

This hotel has some redeeming qualities, like its proximity to the beach, but overall, it falls short in many areas. The rooms and overall facility feel quite dated, and I encountered several unpleasant experiences with the staff. While the breakfast was horrendous, the hotel at least has a pool nearby, although it's too close to the main road for comfort.

This hotel is a hidden gem, just a short walk from both Koukanaries and Banana beaches. The rooms are tidy and had everything I needed, making my stay very enjoyable. The service was outstanding, with staff that truly made me feel at home. I had delicious traditional Greek meals at the hotel taverna, which were both affordable and satisfying. My only complaint would be that while the breakfast was decent, a few more options would have made it even better.
