The pool was nice. Location as well
The rooms are dated and does not resemble the pictures. Breakfast was decent but not filled properly.

The location was nice and quiet. Walking distance to beach, supermarket, pharmacy, clubs, bars, restaurants. The fridge dispite looking old worked well. The guy who welcomed us and showed us the room was very nice and friendly.
Basic Hotel with really unfriendly owner. He told us to leave the pool half an hour before closing time (8pm) and said exactly "get out it's over". At breakfast he said to his staff in greek "pack the food away i don't care, breakfast is till 10" about the people coming late and the families who were still getting servings of food. The beds were very hard and uncomfortable. The sheet had some oil stains in one corner and were changed after two nights. (We did not ask for new ones).The kitchen had basic equipment, but there wasn’t anything to put dishes on to dry or a towel to dry them with. The toilet was leaking from the water tank, the shower is open so even when careful the floor will be wet. Also it would be nice to have hand soap from the hotel which there was not and we think is a basic thing every hotel has. The ac didn’t really work well. It only did cold air but not temp specific so we were either too warm or too cold. The timer or sleep functions also didn’t work so it was a bit loud always. The floors got barely cleaned after 3 days, but still dirty. Wifi was horrible on phones and barely worked on laptop a few times, we mostly used data most of the day.

Although in a built up area, it was very peaceful and quiet. The staff were very happy and helpful.
We had a problem locating the property because the signage was a little small.

The garden is very nice and taken care of, nice of them that they also printed tickets for us.
Beds are really hard, difficult to sleep in. The rooms need some repairs

Grade A for breakfast, location, staff and cleanliness!
A family business that puts a lot of effort and love into it, and at a good price compared to the other hotels.
Brought to the property immediately upon arrival with no problems or similar.
Departure just as quick and uncomplicated.
For this price I would definitely consider this hotel on my next trip to Malia.
Thanks for that!
Greetings from the 210
For me personally:
The bar and the pool were closed very early.
Evening session with a drink by the pool is unfortunately not possible. But only 50 meters away from the hotel, it’s going down to business and that until the early hours of the morning.

There is definitely the best hotel on Crete! Amazing! Wonderful territory! Smart swimming pool ( deep and shallow where it's necessary). Very delicious and every time something new on breakfast. Comfortable atmosphere. You feel like at home! But the most impressive - people, who are really care of you!

9.0
The amability of all the staff, starting from the owners throughout all collaborators.
Breakfast was nice, with all the goodies that we can expect.
The pool is great and provides an extra place to relax.
The gardens are very well cared. I enjoyed to see all different kinds of plants and grass so well treated.
There are several cats sharing some common areas with us. They are the ones really enjoying this place blessed by sun and happiness. I wish I was one of them.
But the best was that everyone was so kind and smiley. Always ready to help in anything we would ask. Any less positive experience turns positive as they really want you to Crete and Malia, and Golden Bay Hotel Apartments. A family business where are visible the good family values.
The shower is a bit small and it's easy to spill water outside and make a mess. Not really a problem if we pay some extra care however might be something to have in mind on a future renovation.

Staff is super friendly and always there for Help!
Outdoor area of the property (pool) is very nice, great if you come by car since a big parking lot is available.
Very cute cats on the property included 🐱
Super friendly atmosphere - felt like a family owned retreat!
Room was mainly clean
Only thing that wasn’t exactly my taste was the bathroom - low water pressure and not really modern. But thats Greece - friendly staff is worth more anyway 🤗
