Rested with my husband from 1.07 to 11.07. At the hotel we were met by representatives of the tour operator, immediately gave the keys to the room. The room turned out to be small, with a tiny balcony, so, at our request, the next day we were moved upstairs to a more comfortable room. An unpleasant moment in terms of the room - PAID air conditioning !! ! Moreover, the voucher for the settlement was purchased from Mouzenidis, who eventually met us in Greece. That is, the tour operator in this case deceived, without warning even when buying a voucher that this service was paid. Oh well... Otherwise, the room is quite comfortable, everything is whole, the maids cleaned it late, but every day, the bed was changed 3 times in 10 days, as were the towels.
Regarding nutrition, according to the HB system, my husband and I ate both at breakfast and at dinner. There were no special culinary masterpieces, but the products were fresh, a lot of vegetables, something hot for breakfast (scrambled eggs, sausages) plus cold snacks, and, of course, muesli, cookies, jams, honey, etc. Tea and coffee are not tasty, it is better to take at the bar (espresso is about 2 euros). For dinner, the main course was a choice.
I didn’t like the fact that sometimes the cutlery was dirty, and at dinner the table was practically not wiped after the previous dinner guests. Every time I had to contact the waiter to fix it.

The hotel is located in the "second" line, used the beach of the hotel "Alexander the Great". And for this it was necessary to cross a busy road in an extremely inconvenient place - between two turns. One could judge the approaching car by the noise of tires and the engine, but not visually. I wouldn't risk running with kids.
The beach is clean, the sea is just a fairy tale. Quiet, clean, very warm. Sunbeds with an umbrella cost 5 euros on a weekday, on Saturday for some reason 8 euros.
The nearest market is 500 meters from the hotel, about 1 km to Kriopig, about 3.5 km to Kallithea (40 minutes walk). Go to Kallithea through the village of Solenos (sort of like that), so in that village there are souvenir shops and taverns.
Regarding excursions, we went to Meteora (70 euros / h) and Olympus-Dion-Vergina (55 euros / h). Stunning places, just an unimaginable combination of nature and organically fitting architecture. The tours are organized very well and were not tiring.
In general, the impressions of the country are the most wonderful, but next time I will be more attentive to the choice of a hotel.
