Excellent location

The location was excellent. We had a car but didn’t need to drive during our stay here as we were across from the beach and a short walk into town and the restaurants. Daily housekeeping was good.

The shower kept leaking and we had to wait until the third day for someone to fix it. We booked a room with a balcony but we only got a small table with chairs outside our room. The breakfast buffet options were limited. The aircon was extremely loud even on the low setting so needed to use ear plugs at night.

Excellent stay in Rethymno.

Easy going owner and great value for money with access at the beach and an excellent restaurant downstairs. Best fish I ate in Crete (and I ate a lot of them)

Wifi access was a mystery to me, but I couldn’t be bothered to figure it out either

Superb

The staff were amazing Very accommodating and friendly. I was unfortunately struck down with a Cardiac arrest on the first night there and taken into hospital. All of the staff looked after Mary, my wife and supported her whilst I was away from her. The property is wonderfully situated. It is across a road from one of best beaches in Crete and within a 20 min walk to the old town.

The most important thing in the apartment is the staff and management. Nice apartment in front of the beach, with a balcony to the sea. The hotel staff made every effort to ensure that we enjoyed our vacation. The hotel is run by a nice family. Big brother KOSTAS is the hotel manager. His sister TULA is responsible for the restaurant and the staff and is mainly the reason for our pleasant stay there. She even took care of us for beach towels, which we didn't bring with us. The younger brother PANDELIS is responsible for the maintenance at the hotel and helped us a lot. The breakfast served from 8 - 10 is varied and delicious. They cleaned and arranged our room every day and we felt part of the family. Highly recommended.

There is a problem with the internet But when we connect to the Internet of the beach And that solved the problem.

Perfect in every respect

The employees were friendly and exceedingly accommodating, surpassing expectations in every way. The breathtaking vistas of The Old Town and the beach from the balcony were amazing. Location is perfect for strolling into The Old Town and the beach is across the road. The dwelling was essentially a residence that could effortlessly accommodate six individuals.Double glazed windows and doors with the addition of shutters provided excellent sound proofing. Air conditioners in every room and daily cleaning was a bonus. You will not be disappointed with your stay. Highly recommend the Taverna downstairs for your meals.

I cannot fault this accomodation.

Apart from the wardrobe issue and living out of a suit case it was an excellent stay.

Excellent staff. Excellent breakfast. Excellent location. Room was good apart from the wardrobe, or rather lack of a wardrobe. Our room had a small cupboard with the height only good for hanging a T shirt. Not hug enough for a dress and certainly not a long dress

Lack of space for hanging clothes.

Nice

The room was spacious, nicely equipped and very clean. Breakfast was really pleasant in the restaurant next to the beach. Beach is across the street. Everything is within walking distance

The room we stayed in is on the ground floor with no view and not much light. It was difficult to find a parking spot around. There were no fruits on breakfast.

Close to the beach

10 meters from the beach, the hotel has also umbrellas and sunbeds on the beach, really nice staff working in the restaurant, hotel and on the beach.

The facilities are old, aircondition is placed on the balkony, so its quite warm there, but then you have the beach!

We stayed at a big apartment on the last floor. It was very open and with a fabulous view at the beach. It was clean and had everything we needed from cutlery to beach towels.

We didn’t like that there is a free parking, but no one explained beforehand that it is the street in front the restaurant which has very few public spaces that are always occupied. We tried to find parking around the other streets, but without luck. So we parked at the paid parking near the marina.

Nice budget hotel with kind staffs and breakfast, but a facilities little bit outdated.

The breakfast was great for us. The menu doesn't change; some grilled vegetables with eggs and bacon with some pastries, bread, cheese, ham, fruit, cereal etc. We normally don't need variety for breakfast, so this worked out perfectly for us. Especially considering the price and that it was included, we were very much satisfied. One morning, we went to breakfast a bit later than usual and the spinach/cheese pie had gone out. One of the staffs promised me that they would make more the next morning, which I thought was very kind of her to say. Plus, the location is beachfront with other restaurants and bars right in the vicinity. It's not totally located in the center, but it only takes about 10 minutes to walk from the hotel.

Facilities are definitely a bit outdated here. Room was spacious, but the bathroom showed that the place has been standing for some time. The walls are pretty thin so you could also hear pretty much everything going on in the hallway. I'm pretty senstive to sounds, so it worked out fine for the three days that we stayed, but I think I might have had some difficulty if we stayed a bit longer.

A basic hotel across from the popular, busy beach.

Basic buffet breakfast. Across the main road from the very busy beach. Location was very good for this kind of experience.

Car parking was always a bit of an issue as we had to drive the streets looking for a parking spot.

Excellent guest house right on Rethymnon Beach

Perfect location about 1km walk along the seafront from the Old Town, Venetian Harbour and Fortezza Fortress. Rethymnon’s top-rated restaurant Nostos Is about 3mins walk in the other direction, and was excellent and incredibly good value. The hotel offers clean, comfortable rooms with small balcony overlooking the beach. Lift to upper floors. Free sun bed and umbrellas on the beach for guests buying drinks from the hotel’s restaurant. Helpful, friendly staff. Excellent and plentiful breakfast included. Free parking relatively easy to find (in May) a short distance along the promenade. Wi-fi pretty good throughout the hotel

It's ok for its price

We chose this hotel, because of its location, sea view and the breakfast and we were satisfied with those. They cleaned our room everyday, which was an unexpected surprise.

The room was quite worn out: it was almost impossible to turn off the hot tap in the kitchen, there was a hole in the shower head and it was very hard to open the balcony door and it didn't close properly, so it didn't have much sound proofing.
