Good hotel but need a proper overhaul
We stayed for one night, as we were taking the ferry the next morning and this hotel is at one of the best spots in the town. This is an old building and needs a proper overhaul, especially since the bathroom is very old. It is good for a one-night stay. Breakfast is on the top floor overlooking the port and provides one of the best views on the island! Breakfast is ok, not bad.

4/10 Fair

Walls covered in spatter of bodily fluids ?vomit ?blood a hair also. Bathrooms need renovated badly. Air conditioning turns off in the middle of the night (this occurred in our friends room also so it is a deliberate cost saving measure by staff) incorrigible given the heat. Drain clogged and not draining water in shower. Mould in shower. Was cheap. But definitely cheap and nasty. 1 night only for sure or find elsewhere.

Rooms were nice and clean but there was some visible wear to some of the furniture and bathroom. Staff were friendly and the hotel is very centrally located for the city centre and bus links to Knossos and the airport.

Breakfast came as a pleasant and unexpected free promo/gift from the hotel. The receptionist was great. The only problem was the shower because water is not well directed to the drain so it leaked to the room.

Good stay
Finding the hotel was easy and check-in went by quick. I can’t remember much about the elevator in terms of size, but I do know that my mom and I, alongside each of our carry-on bags, fit just fine. The room was clean and the beds were good. I had no problems with noise and I am a light sleeper. The location of the hotel is very convenient as it is close to harbour and close to the main area of the city. It also close to two bus stations (one being the main bus station). The only small thing that I noticed was that the door that led to the balcony wouldn’t lock. I tried several times, but the lock just wouldn’t latch on. The area also felt safe, which was very important to us since we were two female travellers and we had to check out at around 2:00AM to catch the ferry. Even at that time of night, we didn’t feel unsafe walking around with our luggage. Overall, it was a good stay that is positioned well in the city.

The property was in a convenient location for the ferry port, which we used for transportation from Crete to Athens. The hotel staff were excellent and always helpful. The only drawback is that it is hard for any tour transportation to pick us up at the hotel.
