Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Middle of the town, so very convenient to all the shopping and restaurants.
Bathroom and shower is tiny.
No block out for the window so was very bright and very noisy because of the area.
It was clean, the receptionist was kind and helpful. Unfortunately there wasn’t any tea or coffee making facilities which was disappointing as we had a very long day travelling , not sure if we would stay here again
Excellent front desk..helpful and kind. Hotel and room was clean. Parking is very difficult to find. Bathroom/shower very small. Buffet breakfast—assortment of cheeses/meats, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, cereal, breads. No warm offerings.
Great, clean property, I like the old school European charm (small bathrooms) ha! The bed was a little firm, but doable. The best parts about this place are the friendly employees and the location can't be beat. It's right in the middle of Heraklion's pedestrian district: shopping, cafes, restaurants, etc. I would stay here again.
Great location for short stay; centrally located ; close to shopping, dining, supermarkets, airport, and port. Breakfast was adequate. Mattresses were um, hard.
