Το μοναδικό θετικό ήταν η θέα, την οποία βέβαια ήταν δύσκολο να την απολαύσεις λόγω της υστερικής γειτόνισσας.
Το δωμάτιο μικρό με κανένα comfort. Η ιδιοκτήτρια αγενής και εισέβαλε στο δωμάτιο κάθε φορά που βγαίναμε έξω..την τελευταία μέρα καθόμασταν στη βεράντα, πέρασε από δίπλα μας και απλά μπήκε στο δωμάτιο που με μέναμε. Και το αποκορύφωμα είναι ότι πριν αναχωρήσουμε, είχαμε βγει για τα τελευταία ψώνια και η ιδιοκτήτρια μπήκε στο δωματιο και σήκωσε τα σεντόνια και γενικώς μάζεψε τα πάντα πριν βγούμε από το δωμάτιο, που αξίζει να σημειωθεί πως αναχωρήσαμε μία μέρα νωρίτερα άρα δεν υπήρχε πίεση για το check out και η εν λόγω κυρία με τον τρόπο της μασ έβγαλε κακήν κακώς από το δωμάτιο που ήταν πληρωμένο για μία παραπάνω μέρα. Δεν αξίζει τα λεφτά του από καμία άποψη. Ότι χειρότερο έχω δει μέχρι τώρα. Μικρό και στενό δωμάτιο. Καθόλου ιδιωτικός χώρος και η θέα χάνει την αξία της με όλα τα παραπάνω

This accommodation was clean and light with an amazing view of the bay, with everything you need - A/C and wifi working well, cooker, knives, cuttlery, plates, glasses, cups, a kettle, fridge and freezer ... It's located in the centre, so it's very close to the shops, bars, restaurants, port and beaches.
If you like old-style accommodation, something retro, it's for you. It looked like from the 1970s/1980s. It's on a hill and our room was on the second floor which means you have to climb the hill and the stairs but it wasn't a problem for us.
The beds were quite uncomfortable, very old mattrasses which were very soft, and creaky beds - whatever movement you make , the bed makes sounds. The taps in the kitchen sink are two - one for warm water and one for cold.

Comfortable, great location, good value for money compared to other properties with a fantastic view. We were able to cook meals with the available kitchen equipment. A generous clothes drying rack was very useful. Our room had mosquito nets on the windows. We noted that not all rooms had. The building comprises 3 floors. The top one has a large open deck in front of the rooms. The middle one has a narrow balcony whereas the bottom level has a large leafy deck (vine pergola). Three apartments per floor. All have sea views. The apartments are all accessed via steps. The caretaker lady is helpful and friendly. I would definitely stay there again.
The photos and descriptions for the respective units can he much improved (there is no lake, all have harbour and/or sea views). Data collection and information for checkin pre arrival seemed excessive and cumbersome.
The unit number was provided in the English language text as a word rather than number. Fortunately the lady who takes care of the property was available to show us to our room. This can be improved by the agent.

3.0 / 5.0
The location was perfect, a little steep but not too much
The view was wonderful and nice to wake up to each morning.
The accommodation was not too expensive
Everything was done remotely, so we didn’t see any hosts, there was no reception, we had issues checking in, there was no one there , it seemed quite by chance that a woman appeared with the key, we had been travelling awhile and this was v stressful.
The flush on the toilet broke whilst we were there . It looked a little flimsy although to be fair this was fixed the same day .
One morning after a storm there was a huge pool of water under our bed , I have no idea where it came from , and the floor all over the flat soon became wet.
We were a little disappointed with the shared
Balcony at the front , but I think we should have looked more Carefully on the room descriptions rather than relying on the photos when booking.

Good location, short walk into the town with lots of restaurants and shops. All cooking facilities for making breakfast. Nice balcony and view.
A little dated (very authentic 70s tiles!) and our room was next to the water pump which was quite loud. The shower head was broken so could had to wedge it so it would stay up!

Well equipped kitchen
We ve been spammed with over 15 emails from the Property.
There was no way of notifying the owner "not to disturb"
We were asked to pay a tax without the information being listed

Great location close the the centre and had an incredible view which made is worth the steep walk up there. Balcony was a great size and it had everything you need for your stay.
We had twin beds with an extra 3rd bed which were a little hard and uncomfortable. The decor is a bit dated but expected in Greece, and would have liked a bigger shower but it did the job just fine. Nothing that would put me off a stay since the view was worth every penny.

Beautiful view from the room. Quiet. Very central. Well equipped kitchenette.
There are 6 rooms, 3 rooms next to each other on 2 floors. The rooms have a shared balcony on each floor, which is also the entrance to each room, therefore there are people walking past your room all the time and it doesn't feel very private.
The pension is up a hill with steep steps, it might not be suitable for families with young children or older people.
There is no actual interaction with a person, everything is through email or phone.

The location, the view over the harbour entrance, the balcony and open terrace.
This apartme t is old and could do with a bit of a refurb but it was clean and the bedding and towels changed after 2 days.
I would stay again if the price was ok
All the e mails from the company that seems to run this property, you think you are with booking.com and you end up having to register and login to another company.

It was a bit hard to find the apartment but we had help from the lovely ladies at the Alfa hire. Location is great,just a few steps above the main street and harbour. It is a bit of walk upstairs so it is not for older people or small children. But is is worth a walk upstairs since the view over harbour is wonderful.
There's no actual parking. Don't go with car there or make a good preparation to follow a strict route a know where you go and park since the streets are narrow,crowded during high season and sometimes you have to go quite up the hill.
There is no internet in the 1st floor apartments! You have to climb to the 3rd floor terrace so you could acess the internet.
The room itself is very old,basic accomodation but still clean. It a budget apartment with nice view over the harbour it is not a leisure place.

The situation was great (very center). Clean and nice rooms. Great view.
The toilet smells quite bad. Shower has no door, with curtains falling down...the rooms are very close to each other with shared balcony so very little intimicy.

Nice view
The accommodation uses an app for check in information. HOWEVER, there’s no instructions about the room number and how to find the room at all. And no one was picking up the call. It took us 30mins to found out where is the room in dark.

I liked the view of the room, it was amazing!
I didn't like that no one who speaks English was there to give the keys, instead there was an old woman who didn't speak any English and that created a lot of confusion when we wanted to check in, plus no internet wireless was provided to us.
5.0 / 5.0
Very comfortable, quiet and spacious room, with an incredible view at the old port! Everything was very close on foot!! The room has a large veranda, you could even watch the stars at night!! We highly recommend it!
Quiet impersonal communication through automatic e-mails. However, the lady and the grandmother we met at the hotel were lovely and offered to keep our luggage the last day until 4pm. Be careful of ants in the kitchen appearing from nowhere when you leave food outside tbe fridge..!

Good value for money. Beautiful view of the harbour. Tucked away so very quiet location. Simple accommodation, a bit dated but location really made up for this. Only 3 min walk to the centre of the village and shops.
Access is tricky as it’s up very steep steps and quite a lot of them. This was fine for me as my children are teens and could carry own bags but would have been harder if we had young children with us.
