Chambre propre mais pas grande et la salle de bain n en parlons pas!! La douche minuscule, avec le wc à l intérieur, impossible de bouger. Pas de sèche cheveux .
Chambre donnant sur la rue où il y avait les restos, odeur de friture dans la chambre.
Le personnel , mitigé, a la réception nous avons été accueilli très froidement dès notre arrivée. Je n ai apprécié du tout . Les autres réceptionnistes étaient sympas.
Le petit déjeuner correct mais pas de chocolat , lait froid.
Heureusement que l hôtel était en plein centre . Les photos du port et des bateaux de pêches ! Qui sont présentées sur la description ne reflètent pas la réalité . Photos à actualiser je pense .
Hôtel 2 étoiles mais pas plus .
Je n y retournerai pas.
Tout était bien. Chambre très propre, petit-déjeuner ok..
Le premier jour quelques problèmes d’ascenseur, mais le lendemain tout était en ordre

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.

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.

Szálláshely Hereklion központjában. Kitűnő elhelyezkedés, barátságos személyzet. A szoba átlagos de jól karbantartott.

Ziemlich veraltet. Die Tür zum Bad ging nicht zu, oder immer wieder von alleine auf.
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
Amazing hotel in a great location with fantastic service and everything you could possibly need! Will definitely stay again next time I’m in the Heraklion.
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.
