•Cleanliness was good, the room and bathroom were maintained decently on a daily basis. •Breakfast was correct, with basic products (eggs, cereals, milk, coffee, juices). The pastry section was identical every day and could have been more diverse. •Air conditioning worked well, which was very important in the summer heat. •The fridge was useful, even though a bit noisy. •The balcony was large enough to sit at a table. •Staff were kind and explained everything we needed from check-in to check-out. •At check-out, the staff offered juices for the children and did not charge us the local tax.

Great hotel in a great location

The hotel is newly renovated, very comfortable and clean. The staff are very nice and friendly. The breakfast is excellent, very diverse and tasty buffet. The room was large and comfortable, excellent for a family. The location is great, close to the beach, supermarket and stores.

lovely and clean, rooms were good with all that you would need fo make stay enjoyable. pool area was nice and located at the back of the hotel, breakfast was good, same options available each day. we could walk to the shops and restaurants but would drive especially if coming back in the dark due to having to walk on the roads.

I had a wonderful holiday at the golden sunlight with my friends. The hotel is located near the seashore of gouves , everyday the room has been perfectly cleaned and the breakfast is simply amazing . The housekeeper and her family are very kind and gentle and they all pay many attentions to the guest's requests at any time. I am going to advise this hotel to all of my friends and family. This place is even fit to families with children because of it large spaces and swimming pool in the outside garden . Federico from Italy

Nice place, but not sure children are too welcome for the lady owner

It is a nice B&B, the rooms are clean, and generally, a decent place to stay for a couple of nights to enjoy the northern area near the airport and the surrounding attractions. Mike - the owner was very nice to us, gentle and welcoming, and charming with the kids. His wife- a bit of the opposite, seemed angry at the kids and had a lot of comments on how they behave or what they do. They might not be the quietest kids, but this is a family hotel eventually and kids make noise, jump to the pool, or fall some food to the floor. I always felt we were not welcome to be around when she was there. It's not the best feeling on vacation.

Wonderful stay for families and individuals in Heraklion Prefecture

Breakfast was very good. High quality products. The hotel is located next to the Old National Road (but despite this topic, it is not noisy at night). Convenient location to visit Cretaquarium, AquaPark, DinoPark etc. Free Parking available in front of the hotel. Swimming pool was very clean.

Very comfortable

Hosts very kind and service is top notch. Room was cleaned every day without being disturbed and without us even asking for it. Very flexible check in and check out. Overall the service and comfort was even better than some 5 star hotels. Would recommend highly and can't wait to stay again.

Excellent value for money with great service and everything you want close by.

The hotel is very clean with large rooms, a pool and a good buffet breakfast. The owner and staff were so kind and helpful. Beaches, bars and restaurants are a short stroll away. And tour buses pick up just up the road.
