2. We arrived at 6 o'clock in the morning and of course there was no early check-in, we were informed that they would check-in from 11 o'clock in the afternoon and we cannot have breakfast according to the all-inclusive system, because our all-inclusive starts after our check-in. Therefore, if you want to go, it is 5 euros. Well, to be honest, it is clear here that you pay and you will already be settled. There are no complaints about this. But the receptionist who drove us to the 5th level with suitcases (there is no bellboy) did not inform us that it is possible to go up from the other side of the road and we dragged these suitcases in our hands to the 5th floor.
3. Food. I will say this, you will always find something to eat, but you will feel when there are managers in the hotel - everything will suddenly become premium and 4 stars. And the Soviet canteen will become a restaurant.
4. The hotel is very quiet, not always even the lounge plays at the pool.
Among the advantages: cleanliness, really good cleaning in the rooms and more.
Silence. Rest.
Cons: the reception is not friendly at all, it takes 20 minutes to get to the sea, personally there is no hotel beach, plastic glasses at the bars.
The room is normal, there is nothing super there, a normal room. I really liked the food, I can say that it is an order of magnitude higher than in Turkey and Egypt in 5 * hotels. We had 4 types of meat, fish, squid rings, mussel salads, lasagna, a lot of things, dishes, almost not repeated. The territory is good, the hotel is like a mountain of accommodation, the buildings are like a cascade, there is a swimming pool with sea water. Minus - no playground, literally 1 rocking chair, but we had enough, we walked just like that. In general, the area is beautiful, clean, green.
I'll start with what greatly spoiled the impression of the rest - the theft of a tablet computer from the room during dinner! It turned out that the doors on the balcony, even if they are tightly closed and the latch is raised, do not close every time, which is probably what the thieves took advantage of. The hotel management did nothing to smooth this unpleasant impression! We made our own way to the police station and stayed there for 2 hours to file a theft report.
The room is spacious, we had 107, everything is in good condition. The air conditioner is old and buzzes a lot, but we did not use it, because. It wasn't hot at night yet. The linen is clean, but far from new, and the towels are grayish in color. The bed linen is very worn, sometimes transparent. For those who are interested - the TV is small and tube, but we never turned it on. Cleaned well, linen changed 2 times in 7 days, towels 3-4.
On the territory of the hotel, apart from a small pool, but with sea water, a court and a small playground, there is nothing. We took it as a starting point for traveling around the island. Bargained for a good price for a car rental at an agency near the hotel and traveled for 4 days. Crete is very beautiful!
I recommend the beach that is immediately to the right after the road, about 500 meters from the hotel, in 2014 it was the UNESCO Blue Flag. Rental of sun loungers and umbrellas for 5 euros, which is more expensive than anywhere else (usually 2-3 euros).
The range of dishes is not very large, but we never left hungry. For lunch and dinner, lamb is often eaten, watermelons are eaten in May. Everything is delicious. It is strange for a 4 star hotel that there is no service at the pool bar, you have to pour all the drinks yourself. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are full-fledged, and snacks between them are purely symbolic - one type of sandwiches with boiled sausage or one type of baked tea. The restaurant is not big. Before our departure, the hotel began to fill up and there were already problems with the tables and the waiters, and there were only 2 of them in the hall, obviously could not cope!
There are no beach towels.
The general feeling that the hotel management saves on everything.
The host tour operator Fenix is very satisfied! And they met and saw off with a guide and full accompaniment even when leaving at the airport !!!
Room tip: Most of the rooms have sea views, but there are lower floors in the second and third rows with views of the neighboring building.
I have been to Greece before. Always lived in 4 stars and were satisfied. But this vacation (in terms of choosing a hotel) CANNOT be called successful. So advice: for the money you can find something decent. Good luck and have a great holiday everyone!
In the evening, no programs, only cicadas)) All around the hotels live in the evening life, children laugh, people walk, but we all died out. They saved everything. Don't go there!! !
