Pros:
not far from the sea, really 500-700 meters (which road to go on, there are few sidewalks, basically you need to stomp on the roadway).
Green area as elsewhere in Zakynthos.
200 meters to the mini market (accustomed to our stores, you will be horrified by this, but then you will learn how to find something to eat).
A playground from the Russian hinterland of the 80s, although my children enjoyed swinging in the shade of old olive trees.
Minuses:
the stench of a neglected lake with a dense green foamy slurry on top,
There is a corral with an impressive number of geese adjacent to the Playground, so the smells in this hotel are still the same.
In the last week of our holiday (mid-August), the smell of the toilet was added. A familiar bar owner explained that emptying sewer barrels is expensive, so many negligent hotels pull to the last.
the hotel is old (creaky beds and homemade cabinets made of chipboard with raw edges),

there is at first glance a cozy small green terrace, but the blocks of rooms are located so that from the bedroom window to the neighbor's terrace is 1.5 meters (we were lucky that our friends with an adult child were in the neighborhood, so my baby had a chance to sleep. In her In turn, we also did not sit too long on the terrace, because the neighbors on the other side had three children).
Crockery in a bungalow to spare: 4 mugs, 4 plates, etc.
They cleaned poorly (on the wet floor after cleaning, juice stains and hair, etc. were visible) and in my case rarely. As it turned out, the cleaning lady works only until lunchtime and decides from which side it is convenient for her to clean the rooms. The cleaning lady came to our room by 1:30 a. m. (a child's daytime sleep) and left, because I did not provide a cleaning room. After we weren't cleaned for 4 days, I asked the hostess to do it (no complaints). They threw a bucket of mud at me and called me a liar. Sooo weird people. In my opinion, the request to clean up the hots sometimes until one o'clock in the afternoon is not a disaster.
It is very noisy from the road in the early morning hours, especially. Woke up early.
Air conditioning for an additional fee.
Wifi is poor. Up to the room (we had the fourth, i. e. next to the reception) finishes, but there is no sense. You can use the reception, but they work 3 hours before lunch and three hours after lunch. If you didn’t make it in time, then you can sit under the doors of the closed reception in the heat overlooking the stinking lake. During a communication session, there is no opportunity to take children with ice cream or order something for yourself in a cafe, which looks strange for a 4 *. We used the Internet in restaurants, it turned out to be much more convenient.
There are no laundry services either, which is unacceptable for 4 *, as they position themselves.
By the way, they could not provide confirmation of the status of 4 * at our request. They gave me some kind of document on the conduct of the hotel business from 2005. At the same time, everything happened with the representatives of Jeanne's Mouzenedis. She vigorously nodded her head.

And we asked for confirmation because we were asked to pay the tourist tax in cash based on the status of 4 *. As a result, we received a piece of paper about payment, filled out by hand. And the yelling insulting hostess, because I wanted to pay according to the details through my Internet bank. By the way, not a single Russian vacationer on the beach knew about such a tax. That is, all decent hotels include this tax in the cost of living.
