The pool was incredibly small and had odd hours-10:30-5:30, I think. So no time to actually use it. I was unaware breakfast was included and that was a nice surprise. It was a pretty good array of food.

You get what you pay. But we did not even get that

We chose this hotel because it is central to the places we were visiting in Rethymno. It is old, but no charm. The rooms are utilitarian. Bed was the most uncomfortable we have ever slept on; like a board with a thin matress. The bathroom looked dirty, tile grout dirty. We would not use the shower. It was cramped and small. The room had 2 built in tables by bed; like an old dorm room. There was a small fridge which worked. It had tiny lights over each side of bed. Not much light. The included breakfast had choices. Bread, no toaster. Cold scrambled eggs. Cereal. Spinach pies. Some disgusting slices of processed ham, tyrkey, cheese. The coffee was awful. It looks like some young people live there. When we checked in they said there will be no hot water after 9am because they were doing some work. There was no hot water at 7am. This is probably the only bad review I have given to a hotel, and we travel extensively. Yes this hotel was cheap, but we did not even get what we payed for.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location was great. The reception lady was rude. I asked her where I could get coffee and she seemed very bothered and just pointed “out there somewhere”. We ended up walking behind the hotel and there was tons and tons of shops and cafes and things to do. She just couldn’t be bothered. Our room was disgusting. We refused to shower there. The shower was rusted and scum was everywhere. The room smelled awful. The beds were separated and they were uncomfortable as well as the comforters were these old covers that looked like they had never been washed. The window opened but there was no privacy and no screen so I couldn’t sleep with it open. On a positive note, the Roof Top does have a great view of the city and the staff there was fine. The same lady was there there when we checked out and again, just very rude and couldn’t be bothered.

Poor staff attitude

To our horror, the room’s aircon unit was faulty. When I approached the reception for a room change, the answer given was the HOTEL’s air-conditioning system was faulty and the receptionist refused to allow for a room change. Can anyone believe that the hotel’s air-conditioning system was not functional at 35 degrees summer time? She added that a fan would be provided to provide some relief. Sadly, even the fan that the housekeeping staff brought in was in a bad state and faulty. We insisted that the housekeeping staff showed us the adjoining room to verify if the HOTEL’s air-conditioning system was indeed faulty. True enough, the air-con unit in the other room was in working order. This speaks a lot about the level of hospitality that the hotel staff embodies.

Value hotel. Cheap but you get what you pay for. Small rooms, old beds, old furniture, tiny bathrooms. It was ok for one night beacause of the good location. Breakfast was average. Friendly staff. Top floor has a terrasse with beautiful view of the city. Would probably not stay here again...

Amazing location!

It was right in the middle of town where all the buzz was for the carnival. The room was clean the breakfast had a good variety and delicious. And we didn't hear anything at night actually even though we were facing the square. It was comfortable and the water was hot for shower.

Sijainti on hyvä. Myös viereisen torin toimiminen parkkipaikkana oiva, paitsi keskiviikosta torstain alkuiltaan jolloin torin torstai markkinat estävät siellä paikoituksen. Torstaisin ei lähialueelta löydy vapaita pysäköintipaikkoja edes talvella. Kesäisin on Marinankin kummatkin isot parkit tukossa. Kreetalaiseen tapaan ikkunat ovat yksinkertaiset, joten yöllä on ulkoa tulevan metelin takia vaikea saada unta.

Hôtel des Années 1980 ! Rien à changé. Mobilier, porte et mur désuet et abîmé. Rien ne tient. Vieux rideau de douche degueu avec la Robineterie bouffée par le vert de gris et calcaire. Clim très bruyante et rue aussi. Écriture sur les murs. Mobilier abîmé. Il y a même une commode de 1970 avec des anciens boutons électriques. Traces d’écriture sur les murs d’ancien client. Personnel froid. Paiement de la taxe séjour a l’enregistrement. Le port du masque n’est pas demandé. On se croirait l’Afpa ! Seul intérêt le petit déjeuner sur le toit.
