Hotel need upgrade.
The hotel ideally situated in the middle. All the staff were pleasant. Only issue is the pictures provided in Hotel.com are misleading. If you are big built, try to avoid the hotel. The room, bed and specially the shower room is too small. I struggled a lot.

Great location and comfortable stay
Location of course is the main attraction and convenience. Clean and comfortable property. While the shower is so tiny you can barely fit in it, it is private shower while many places offer shared bathrooms. For location, amenities and price this is a gem. Special thanks to the breakfast room staff who kept the breakfast room stocked and clean during the breakfast hours and were always friendly and welcoming. I would definitely recommend the property and would stay there again.

The property isn’t a modern as the photos suggest. The whole place could do with a paint job and a freshen up as it is a tad dated. Overall, the place was ok. There were just a few things it was missing: no bar or safe, as advertised which was partly the reason I booked it as a solo traveller. The bathroom had a weird quirk, where the shower door didn’t close all the way (design flaw), which meant water went all over the floor and toilet bin right next to the shower. Also, because of the weird shape of the shower and close proximity to the vanity, a floor mat can’t be used directly in front of the shower as it will block the door opening. Lastly, chairs being moved back and forth on the mezzanine floors made for a rather annoying sound late at night and early in the morning, but I assume this would only affect the first floor which I was on. Having said all that, I appreciated the reasonable prices, that breakfast was included and the receptionist was very friendly.

Beware of noise level
Our room was at the back of the hotel right opposite a bar/club. The noise was terrible. VERY loud music until 4:20am. This was a Friday night. We have stayed at this property before, also on the back, but never had music this bad before. If we go again we will request a room on the opposite side. It is a great location and value for money right in centre of town. Also, we did request a smoke free room as this has been an issue on a previous visit but sadly the room this time also smelt badly of cigarettes.

Amazing value for money and central location
Amazing value for money. Have stayed before and will stay again. Great central location. Basic room style but has great modern bathroom. Don't be put off by the dated lobby area as rooms are not so old. Our room smelt of stale cigarettes this time but not had that before.

best budget for Heraklion City center
Property is as described. a bit old and beds are not super comfortable and specially for ladies... but the location and the price are highlights of this centrally located old styles hotel. if you are a budget traveller who wants to live right in the center of the city.. this is probably the best and only option even in peak season.

Could smell sewage. Even though I paid for breakfast and didn't eat any of the pastries, staff complained that I drank too much tea (4 cups) and wanted to charge me more for it

The best location in Heraklion.
The best location in the square centre, surrounded by great eateries, bars, cafes and shops, yet so quiet. Lovely, friendly staff too. Loved the view from the balcony. The lobby area though, needs brightening up, especially the bar and breakfast area. Great value though.
The location is great.
Lots of cheap eateries within five minutes walk.
One minute walk away.

Great location for short stay; centrally located ; close to shopping, dining, supermarkets, airport, and port. Breakfast was adequate. Mattresses were um, hard.
