“Would Give This Place A Second Chance”
The location is unbeatable!! Check in information was straightforward and easy. I just found for a mature couple with one huge suitcase it was simply too small in size of a room. It felt cramped and almost claustophobic. We stayed in Unit B. I would stay here again but would choose a different room. Maybe even Christmas/New Year's.

“Nice old town location but bring earplugs!”
A good location apart from the noise. It was pretty clean although the corners of the bathroom were a bit crusty and tired. The bed was comfortable and modern, and it had a good sized fridge and seating area on an inside “balcony”.

“Super convenient - and amazing view of lighthouse, esp during dramatic sunrise!”
Amazing location. Parked at Marina -an easy 10” or so walk along to Faros. Lots of busy restaurants downstairs but double glazing shut out all the noise from outside and it was great having a little balcony. Waking up in the morning to a stunning sunrise just beyond the lighthouse was an extraordinary experience. Walking distance to everywhere! Room itself small but had everything you needed. Great having an elevator.
