Such a bad experience

A totally unfriendly and rude housekeeper !!! Asking for 7 euro/day for the use of A/C (in the condition as in attached pics). The room was terribly old....There was no water in the toilets...the fridge was out of order (they have replaced that entering our room without any previous warning while sleeping)..ther are no words to describe our disappointment! Avoid this "hotel" at any cost!

Super petit hôtel qui mérite d'être connu

Hôtel familial très bien placé, tout près des clubs et restaurants, tout en étant au calme. Les hôtes sont adorables, accueillants, toujours disponibles, on a passé un super séjour ! Les chambres sont basiques mais confortables, petit coin cuisine, belle piscine avec transats à disposition, on se gare facilement à proximité dans la rue. Seul bémol : pas de savon, et mauvaise insonorisation donc quand vous avez des voisins "seuls au monde" vive les bouchons d'oreille !

The owners were friendly and helpful, and it was cheap. However, the fact that A/C was NOT included was well hidden in the list of conditions. While Expedia listed the place as "having A/C", you actually have to pay 6-8 Euros extra to actually "use" the A/C. I think it is important for potential future customers to know that yes, the place is cheap and the owners are nice, don't be surprised that you will have to pay extra for A/C.

Amazing hotel :)

Ou studio economy room was amazing. We were pleasantly surprised that the little kitchen included a sink, refrigerator, stove, pot and a pan. The family who ran the hotel was incredibly friendly and always wanting to help out in any way possible. Location seas amazing. Only an 18 minute walk away from the beach.

Séjour crétois à petit prix

L'accueil est excellent. Les 2 frères sont hyper accueillants et sympathiques. Le coin piscine est agréable, y prendre un petit déjeuner crétois l'incite. Les chambres ne donnent pas sur la route, ce qui est un avantage. Par contre, les chambres sont mal isolées, et c'est difficile à supporter si des voisins sont bruyants. Sinon , c'est un coin agréable pour un petit prix

La struttura era semplice ed essenziale ma pulita; i proprietari (due fratelli) sono straordinariamente gentili e ci hanno fornito molte informazioni su quanto avremmo potuto vedere nei dintorni. La posizione della struttura è molto buona (un po' difficile da trovare...), in zona tranquilla ma vicina al centro, comodissima per raggiungere Malia Vecchia e con facilità di parcheggio. Sono soddisfatto della scelta fatta, se non si cerca il lusso la struttura è vecchiotta ma ottima. Lo consiglio

LCCみたく、細かく追加料金が設定されているホテルなので、ベースの部屋料金と追加料金を考えて、選択してください。必要なものは近くのスーパーで全て揃うので、便利は良い。マリアはプライベートでビーチがほとんどで、パブリックビーチは歩いて3I’m歩きます。 良い点 ・イラクリオンからの公共バス停32番の直ぐ近くで、大きなスパーも近く。 ・イラクリオン空港から直接、公共バスKTAでアプローチできる。 ・ミニキッチン、冷蔵庫、電気ポットが部屋に装備。 ・バスタオルとフェイスタオルはあるが、 石鹸、シャンプー、キッチン洗剤やスポンジ、ヘアドライヤーはない。ハウスキーピングも毎日はない。WIFIはプールサイドのみ。 朝食やエアコンは別料金。 悪い点 ・プールサイドへの飲食物持ち込み禁止。 ・部屋のテレビとWIFIはなし。
