We stayed at this hotel at the beginning of June. From Araxos airport, where we arrived, we drove about 20 minutes. We arrived at the hotel around 10pm. The owner of the hotel Angelos immediately met, took the voucher, gave the keys to the room and the remote control for the air conditioner (it's free), escorted to the room. The room was on the 3rd floor with a great sea view. Standard room, clean, TV. The channels seem to be only Greek, but we did not turn it on. There is no hair dryer in the room, the shower is just a tray, without a curtain. Water, when you wash, falls directly on the floor, on the toilet, but this is not scary, everything dries quickly. But this is the standard for 2 * hotels. True, there were interruptions with hot water, but they didn’t understand the reason, but they didn’t really find out!
We only included breakfast. For breakfast - cheese, ham, butter, jam, toast, cookies, muffins, coffee, orange juice. It's scarce, but we had enough. Again, this is 2*.
There is nothing near the hotel. The nearest shops, taverns, pharmacies and other civilization in Achaia (3 km) or in Patras (about 15 km) in the other direction. Buses run every hour, stopping near the hotel, the fare is 1.8 euros per person. For some reason, it's the same in one direction, in the other direction, even though Patras is farther... Keep in mind that on Sundays the shops do not work at all, even if it is a huge supermarket in Patras.

We dined in the hotel tavern. Everything is delicious, fresh, especially freshly caught fish.
No one speaks Russian, only English, and even then not all. If you have any questions, please contact the owner of the hotel. Angelos is very responsive, attentive and always ready to help. And, most importantly, everything is unobtrusive. The rest of the staff, and the owner's relatives (it's a family business), are all very nice people.
The beach is, one might say, right under the windows. It is nice to eat on the veranda of the hotel and look at the sea. The view is wonderful. On the horizon are mountains, ships leaving the port, and the famous Rio-Antirio bridge is clearly visible. The sea is clean and calm. For 11 days it was a little stormy only once. The entry is gentle. The water in early June was about +23-24. The shore and entry into the sea are pebbles, but after a couple of steps there is sand. The beach is regularly cleaned from algae and other debris. The sunbeds were free. Special thanks for the mattresses on the sunbeds, very comfortable. There were very few people in the hotel at that time, because, according to the owner, the season begins closer to mid-July and until October. Therefore, the beach is half empty. On weekends, locals come to rest, it becomes noisier. The street bar was just getting ready to open.
In general, if you are tired of the hustle and bustle and want relaxation, silence and unity with the sea and nature, and even for little money, or, like us, you plan to rent a car and travel, and come to the hotel to relax between trips, I definitely recommend it.
