"Beautiful accommodation. Very clean and spacious. They had all the amenities we needed including some Cretan biscuits on arrival! The location was perfect, parking was easy on the nearby port. Even though we did not order a sea view room, we still got a little glimpse of the ocean between the 2 buildings in front. No faults, this place was perfect!"
