"Great value for money stay with exceptional food quality and variety"

"Pros: Room was very clean. The furniture is in good condition (some new, some older). The mini-fridge was surprisingly spatious. The terraces are big equipped with clothes rack to dry them if needed. Surely, they propose cleaning and change of towels every day, but we asked for it only two times during our 9-night stay. Second time they changed the linens as well. Staff were all nice. Receptionists and bar/restaurant personell were helpful and attentive, and cleaning staff were top. The pull area and gardens are beautiful and well maintained. You can play mini-golf, ping-pong and tennis for free. Common areas are clean and in a good condition. Private parking has very limited amount of spaces, so we never catched it free, but around the hotel there are plenty of spaces, so we could find place even during the dinner when all people return back to the hotel. Breakfasts were ok, more or less the same all the time, but dinners were really good and different each day. Some days better, some worse, but overall it was always possible to find something for ones taste. Desserts were ok, ice cream was nice. We were in January, so I cannot evaluate air conditioning. Cons: They don't propose draft beer during the dinner. The heated pool could be warmer. Surely, it was warmer than non-heated ones, but still. There were barely a few people swimming. It was not our case, but some economy rooms seem to hava no view at all (on the wall), so it is better to verify with the hotel."

"Hotel has limited parking. May be risky to park outside of hotel grounds even if you are lucky to find something... Rental cars are an easy target. Busy streets and no where nice walk near the hotel. The water on the island is no good. Hotel does not provide drinking water except at dinner. You need to go and buy your own. The smell of smoke is everywhere in this hotel, Had to move rooms as it smelt so bad. Management insisted it was a non smoking room... however they provide ashtrays in the room for guests. No signs anywhere not to smoke. No areas in the outside areas for non smokers. Some people smoking in hallways. This is essentially a smoking hotel and is encouraged.. free bus to the city is fine.. but check times. Generally this whole area is not great... very heavy traffic and unless you enjoy just sitting on chair in the sun, not much to do. On a day trip up the mountain by rental car we were robbed. All our documents were taken including passports. Fortunately they took the money and threw the bag in a ditch. We had a "samsung smart tag" in the bag and after 2-3 hours found it with most of the documents left in the bag. Met someone else the same day who was also robbed - damage to their car. researching the internet getting robbed is routine on this island. Be very careful. We changed our flights to leave asap and will never be back. "

"Perfect location for lots of hiking and running routes. The hotel is clean and has great facilities, pool, gym and onsite laundry for a few euros. Parking is hard to come by although there are places to park on the street, it is pretty busy and we ended up with a scuff on the hire car on the first morning return to the car where someone had obviously tried to park behind us but failed! Food was good but the options are LIMITED! Usually only 2 mains each night one veggie, one not."
