Отличный отель! Excellent hotel!

Were in June 14 days. We took two adjacent rooms, a large family with two children. One room overlooked the street, the second into the courtyard overlooking the wall of a neighboring house. The first one was more fun. Although it is noisy with an open balcony, the double-glazed window perfectly isolated from the street. There is air conditioning, many complained that it was blowing on the bed, but everyone was apparently too lazy to just direct the blades higher. We were not too lazy and did not blow on us. He worked all night, everyone is safe and sound) Yes, the air conditioner does NOT work if you remove the key, or someone got a magic number)) We arrived early in the morning, we were at the hotel around 9. From the airport we drove 1.20, back a little longer, because we stopped by in indigestible places for tourists) Check-in from 11-12. We left our things at the reception and went for a walk while the rooms were being prepared for us. We looked at the map in advance, where the hotel is located, so we understood where to go and what we want to see. Old city, this is a song with a refrain! It’s a couple of minutes from the hotel, and it’s wonderful! ) It’s worth not only walking along the shopping streets, but also stepping a little to the side, local residents live there, which is interesting, they live very openly, you can just take part in everyday life just passing by)) On the contrary The hotel has a supermarket, open from 7 to 21, day off Sunday. To run in, buy some water / beer / wine, if the soul wants something more, it’s worth turning around the right corner from the hotel and walking a little, there is another supermarket, bigger and richer. If you turn the left corner, then there is a 24-hour pharmacy, you never know, someone will need it! Aloe vera gel for the skin is also sold there, I recommend buying it, it helps with sunburn very well, it costs about 9 euros, it is transparent and smells good, believe me, it will save a lot! ) In general, medicines are much cheaper than in Russia. . Much! Gasoline is exactly three times more expensive. This is for those who want to rent a car. And don’t take it from the tour operator!! ! There are excellent GREENWAYS on the coast, with full insurance and cheaper! Yes, if you have limited internet, and you want to travel, then you should buy a SIM card from a tour operator with only internet. It costs about 18 euros, but you can not only use navigation, but also watch movies in full, etc. , there will be 4 g on the map, but we couldn’t even use a third, we traveled 6 days in a row using the navigator to the fullest! The rest of the time we just distributed traffic to neighboring phones)) More about the hotel. We were given two rooms of almost the same size, they put folding beds for the children. The linen was changed every three days, as were the towels. There were bathrobes and slippers. There is a flat TV even with a couple of Russian channels, but one of them is chanson, the second is Russia 24, we didn’t watch them) Extremely small and uncomfortable bathroom, or we were unlucky with the location, but water is supplied without interruption, there was no smell in one room , in the second permanent, even bought a freshener. Although they left complaints about the smell, once they cleaned something there, it didn’t smell for exactly one day, then everything returned. The balconies are equipped with a couple of chairs and a small table. In the evenings, we hung out wonderfully, having put the children to bed, watching the rhythm of the city, listening to music from neighboring cafes. Cool! Food. The service in the restaurant is very sympathetic, the waiters are not lazy, the tablecloth is changed after each visitor! Breakfasts are so monotonous that by the end it was already nauseous from the same thing. If at least some kind of diet or diet is observed, it is difficult here. . Checked on myself. I had to be content with only Greek yogurt, it is very thick, honey and fried toast with cheese. There were always eggs, either scrambled eggs or scrambled eggs, always sausages, sometimes with additives, sometimes without additives. Even the children rebelled in the end. Here are the dinners! Dinners are great! The choice is wonderful! I can’t remember the same ones, every day there was something new. Desserts are delicious, I can’t get through them, I refused them, but fell for custard several times)) Walk to the beaches from 15 minutes. But do not be afraid of this distance, it passes either through the Old Town or through the streets of Rethymno, the route can be changed a little every day, turning not here, but there)) that they took scooters. We took sun loungers in front of Appolo, where Wi-Fi is included in the price of a sun lounger, if anyone is interested) A pair of sun loungers, an umbrella, a table with containers for glasses - 9 euros. Neighboring green 7, but umbrellas let the sun through, keep in mind! You can just come with your umbrella, since they are sold there on the coast, it costs 10 euros. If you are too lazy to bring a blanket with you, then on the spot, but it’s better in the Old Town, it’s cheaper there than at the beaches, you can buy a blanket, it’s not thick, it’s not a towel, it costs from 10 euros, as you can find) For a meal during the day, we highly recommend a beer restaurant Beeraria, it's not a corner, so you don't confuse it, right in front of the green umbrellas! Excellent food, there is a Russian-speaking girl Tanya, hello to her)) There is a swimming pool on the roof of the hotel, I knew about it, but I completely forgot and stomped in 10 days only until it. It is small, the water is very warm and very chlorinated, which is even unpleasant, but the children were happy. There are several sun loungers, even fewer umbrellas, though during the day there is almost no one there, in the late afternoon people crawl down, creating soup in a small pool. . In general, we recommend the hotel for the whole family! Our family really liked it, everyone treated us very friendly, they let the children go home almost with tears) Price / quality at the level of 4 stars, as stated ! !
