4-You

Totally new and had all the facilities. Really nice beds and pillows. A huge plus to cleaning ladies. And if you need anything the receptionist is always there for you. Perfect location, pool, beach, car rental, and fantastic restaurants.

Extremely nice, clean hotel with great management. A very solid continental breakfast, spacious rooms with comfortable beds, the pool is not Olympic-sized, but it is clean and the children had enough for swimming and jumping 🤣, but we didn't even come to the sea because of the pool. The rooms were cleaned every day, and every other day we had clean sheets and towels. I think this is a great value for this price.

The positives were that the bed was very comfy, the balcony was nice (although very narrow - you would definitely have struggled to seat 4 round the table without having backs literally up against walls), and the staff were friendly and helpful. On the downside, the kitchen was so poorly equipped that it was a struggle to make pasta or a salad - I had to make salad in a saucepan as no bowls! There wasn't even a tea towel to use as an oven glove for the (very small) portable oven thing. There were no amenities (salt, pepper, bottle of water etc) provided on arrival which I found unusual compared to other self catering places. The lounge had a big sofa bed but it wasn't very comfy, and there was no coffee or side table to put drinks on so you had to put them on the floor. There wasn't even a tray provided so you could put them on the sofa next to you. Much worse, the bathroom had an appalling smell of drains when we arrived which only subsided somewhat throughout the week (despite us asking for help - the solution was just to chuck some bleach down it which made it smell of drains and bleach!). We ended up putting a side plate over the drain in the shower when we weren't using it, kept the bathmat over the drain in the floor, and kept the plug in the sink. Also worth noting that the aircon was in the lounge only, not in the bedroom, and that you couldn't get Netflix etc on the TV so it was just standard Greek TV channels (with poor reception and a green vertical line down the right hand side of the screen - we didn't bother mentioning this as there was nothing to watch anyway!). We didn't go to the small pool at all (too cramped, only half a dozen sun-beds, and no parasols or shade around the sun-beds). Location wise, the apartments are really close to the main centre with 2 or 3 quite well equipped supermarkets and grocers, and a couple of decent restaurants (Vasilis and Liana). Overall, we had a nice week, but the apartments were tired and needed quite a few amenities adding to make them work for self catering and relaxing in.
