Without emotion, clearly and specifically. We got there by accident, read reviews and prepared for a low level. However, what we had to face, pretty surprised us. So in order. The place is typical of the Greek flavor, moderately deaf, very authentic, quiet, not in a hurry, with its own specific spirit. This has its own charm for an amateur, party-goers and glamor people have nothing to catch there. Very nice, friendly family run hotel. The territory is well-groomed, clean, blooming. The staff is polite, friendly, helpful - it's worth it, everyone will show, help, always smile and say hello. No one has ever sinned by "Mordovorodstvo". I'm not talking about all the numbers. We had a tiny, cozy, cute room for two. The furniture is not worn out, the textiles are new, the package is not cheap, it's nice to step on. In the morning, the view from the window to the flowers is magnificent. There was no kitchenette in the room, but a kettle, a tray with some utensils and a fridge were. In the morning, brew coffee-tea-cocoa, by the way, the tap water there is wonderful, tasty, detox, boiled by us everywhere we use (we never bought bottled water). These are pluses, of the minuses - the size of the room, who is used to small sizes - not a problem, who is in the mansions, legs are bruised like mine, but you can put up with this, for the sake of wonderful other moments. Kitchen. What they just didn’t write, from scarcity and monotony, to bad taste and disgust. Friends, it's insanely delicious, insanely!!! . . I am a gourmet, capricious and picky, the chef pleased me 100%. For breakfast, there are always yogurts and cereals, cucumber-tomatoes, oranges, butter-jams and beans (as I understand it for vegans, which is very interesting and wonderful). Eggs boiled, fried, scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs with vegetables or mushrooms, cheeses and hams, fried sausages or sausages, something different every morning. Dinner. Cucumber-tomatoes, pizza and stew are constant. This stew deserves special mention, soft, juicy, tasty. Chef for him a separate respect. Garnish with fried potatoes, mashed potatoes, rice, pasta, broccoli or green beans. There was also a sole, on another day some kind of small fried fish, baked chicken, meatballs, pasta with seafood and much more delicious. Cleaning. The room was cleaned daily, pastel changed every other day, perfectly laundered, towels changed daily. I never paid tips, it didn’t get dirtier, but I thanked them in the end. There are two Russian channels. The pool is cleaned every morning, who is not too lazy to get up before 7 am, can be convinced of this. I calmly practiced my yoga by the pool from 6 to 7 and no one disturbed me. Dinner. The hotel has a tavern, the cook is the same, which means delicious. We tried a lot of things, liked the most: sword fish, grilled mix and octopus (! ), It was a masterpiece (photo). There is also a market there, we bought fruits, juices, kefir-beer, the prices are normal (compared with the shops of Heraklion and Hersonissos). Souvenirs are expensive there, oil, olives, creams, soaps are better to take in "LIDL" if you want to take a walk to Hersonissos. By the way, it's true that close, 15-20 minutes walk. Sea. Separate topic. Who is not the first time on the islands, knows - the sea with character, calm breeze - a rarity. But teenagers in the waves are funny. The bottom is rocky, but sandy clearings can be found. This is through the Anabel hotel (we didn’t go to the bays), but there it catches Wi-Fi (! ), For those who have books in e-mail, that’s it. From the hotel to the sea a couple of minutes walk, in fact the same distance as in the Turkish five-star type "Aisigrina" or "Titanic". So it’s obviously not the “five-stars” with experience that are outraged))). In the evenings, everyone hung out in the same tavern for drinks and a UNO game, everything suited us. Who wants to hang out - 7 euro taxi, Hersonissos, a bunch of nightclubs and burn until the morning))). Excursions. There were Knosses, Heraklion, Lassithi and a Greek evening - they were delighted with everything (and we are experienced travelers, we visit 5-7 countries a year). take a donkey to the Cave of Zeus, do not spare 10 euros, you will still need strength on the way back, and exotic. Separate advice, do not forget the rights of the house !!! . . even if not a car, but you can always rent a scooter or a quad bike, and then many distances will seem like easy walks to you - you won't regret it. . . Outcome. Hotel for 3 *, I would say 3 * with +. Over the past few years, 5 * VIPs, I first rested on a real VIP.
