“Peaceful stay with easy access to the beach and restaurants.”
A peaceful place with a great host. The owner also woke me up so that I could go to Mount Athos on time for the boat. Her so also dropped me to the port which is a warm touch. The place is quiet, a lot of beautiful Icons and pictures. A spiritual calm haven. The beach is also a 5 minutes walk from the hotel which is a plus. Will be back again for sure.

“Vintage hotel”
Vintage '60s era feeling, comfy bed, very close to the bus station - 2 minutes walk and, în the morning, a lady drove me to the port, so no money spend on taxi.

“Old, but clean and well maintained place.”
Old, but clean and well maintained place. It feels like really good old movie, because esthetisc are from 60s. People who work here really take care of the place, and make you feel at home.

“The town is very pleasant and has many places to eat and refreshments”
The host was very helpful and considerate. He suggested an area to eat that evening and he picked me up from the bus stop. He also took me to the port for the 08.30am fast ferry.

The room was well-equipped, we had everything we needed, the building is old, but our room was fine, we didn't have any problems. The host is very kind and helpful. It's a good place if you just need to spend night and you don't want to pay much.

“It war very lovely and we hope to be back in this hotel”
The host lady was very lovely. The hotel itself is quiet, ideal for resting. The lock in our door broke but the staff quickly helped us and changed the lock.
