    Overall, it’s kind of worth the money for the location, but some improvements are needed.

    However, the beds were hard and uncomfortable, and the bathroom was quite tiny, with a door that didn't fully open, making it feel claustrophobic for someone bigger. Additionally, the first receptionist I encountered was somewhat rude, which affected my overall impression.

    The hotel boasts a great location, and my room was clean.

    There was a lot of noise until very late at night, despite the noise reducing windows. The bathroom was so small that it was difficult to use the shower and toilet.

    The location is excellent. Close to shops and restaurants. Friendly staff. About 5 min walk to the bus that brings you to the airport.

    Toilet was dirty, shocking to see somebody’s sh*t in it. Dirty bed sheet, like it was touching the dirty floor. Bathroom always wet it’s super small, uncomfortable.

    Wi-Fi was appalling, never stayed connected for more than 2 or 3 minutes at a time and the speed was equivalent to dial-up. We changed rooms which slightly improved it but very unreliable. Rock hard mattress and the bed base was protruding, resulting in bruises from walking into it.

    The location couldn't be better, right in the center. The breakfast was basic but good value for only 5 euro per person. Lovely bathroom looks new. Staff were very friendly and changed our room for us when we complained about the wi-fi.

    The hotel room is worse than the pictures. The air conditioner blows directly into the bed. There is noise from other rooms.

    Good place. Shops, cabins, places of interest are within walking distance.

    Super small room. It’s not best option to stay if you are two. Toilet lid wad just besides the shower in an extremely small bathroom. After shower, the toilet and floor was completely soaked, which made us very uncomfortable.

    Good reception. Friendly staff. Very close to the centrer of the town.

    The room was small, it really difficult to even use the bathroom and the shower. Also the room was not in a good condition as the walls were torn in some places, and there was no incoming light or fresh air in the room.

    It was in the heart of the city and the stuff was super helpful

    There isn't a road outside for taxi to drop off & pick up, if you have heavy luggage. Walk way & all facilities at your feet.

    AS CENTRAL in Heraklion as can be! New bathroom. Comfortable mattress & pillow. Great value breakfast, optional for €5. Price was very good value at €52 a night.

    Walls were really thin, felt as if my neighbours were sitting next to me. There were also some stains around the AC which might or might not have been mold.

    Location was great, very central, and my room had a balcony, perfect to spend the evenings on. And the AC was working perfectly, really nice

    We were close to the maids, so at 8 am when they start working and talking we were woken up, but there wasn’t noise from the outside. It is impossible not to flood entire bathroom while showering, because there are no cabin doors

    Location and convenience, we had a late flight so 24/7 check in is great. The room is small but there is a fridge.

    The bathroom was very small and the whole floor of the room would get wet when taking a shower but the bathroom was decent for the price we paid. Good water pressure. No major complaints

    24hr reception, helpful staff and an amazing location. Room was fitted with an AC, had good storage, a mini fridge and a small balcony.
