The hotel was named in the travel agency as a special offer, although, as it turned out on the spot, no one paid as much as we did (the difference is 7 or more thousand). The beach has no right to be called that. It is all on potholes, with old sunbeds and not 100 meters from the hotel (as in its advertisement - if you fly in a straight line, then yes), but you have to go 400 meters along a steep descent and a little more on the road.

It is all on potholes, with old sunbeds and not 100 meters from the hotel (as in its advertisement - if you fly in a straight line, then yes), but you have to go 400 meters along a steep descent and a little more on the road. We went a kilometer to an equipped foreign beach, where there is sand, not slippery stones in the sea.
They settled in a room with a window instead of a window (it turned out that there are completely deaf people in the hotel, without a piece of glass at will). Nowhere to dry swimwear and towels. On the third day, they hardly persuaded me to move to a room with a terrace, where there is a table and two chairs and where you can spread wet things.
Everything is old and wretched, flows, breaks and turns off. The sink collapsed in the first room. They put a small bar of soap for two for 10 days - why be so disgraced?
There is essentially no territory, nowhere to walk, in the evening it is full of mosquitoes.
You can’t say about nutrition in a nutshell: a typical public catering of the early Soviet period. It was possible to eat only unprocessed foods (vegetables, fruits, dry mixes), and what the cook harp was not called a decent word. A warning about a fine of 50 euros if you take something out of the dining room causes nervous laughter - what should you take from you! The lunch box is just a mockery.
There is nothing even remotely similar in any country in the world. And in the same Greece last year we rested in the "troika" on Kassandra in a good hotel and with excellent food.

Before a trip to this hotel, I looked at the reviews and ratings of tourists, having arrived at it, I could not find a single confirmation of the set pluses. I am inclined to believe that most of the impressions about the hotel are left by the host country itself. It is quite clear that Greece and Crete, in fact, have nothing to do with this, if I may say so.

Before a trip to this hotel, I looked at the reviews and ratings of tourists, having arrived at it, I could not find a single confirmation of the set pluses.
I am inclined to believe that most of the impressions about the hotel are left by the host country itself. It is quite clear that Greece and Crete, in fact, have nothing to do with this, if I may say so. They are just more than worthy of tourist attention.
And so, to start with the fact that the concept of the hotel remained a mystery to me:
- it is not intended for pensioners, since the location of both the hotel itself and the rooms provides tourists with good sports training, from the beach to the hotel there are at least 150 meters on foot;
-for young people it’s insanely boring there, and it’s not even in the village where the hotel is located, but in the hotel administration itself, you won’t find animation and anything else entertaining there, although there was a show program every evening in the neighboring hotel rethymno mare;
- for a family trip with children, this is also not an option, firstly, climbing with a stroller is not the easiest thing to do, and secondly, the complete absence of a children's menu and children's activities;
-well, and finally, for those who need a simple rest by the sea, this is also not suitable, because it is a decent distance to the beach itself, it is small and dirty, there are always not enough sunbeds and there is no care from the hotel administration.
These are sensations in general, in particular if you look, the impressions do not change. The hotel room itself and the quality of the environment and service leaves much to be desired:
-for ten days of stay, our air conditioner broke down twice;
-for the same ten days, after repeated requests, bed linen was changed only once;
-often the maids took away dirty towels and did not leave clean ones, it turned out of course at the moment of getting out of the shower;
- and every morning the maids burst into our room without knocking and stood for a long time holding the doors open and looking at us sleeping.
Food and drinks at the hotel are very far in quality even from 3 * not like 3 * +:
- you will never, no matter how much you hope, find delicious food in a restaurant;
- you will not get a full glass of wine, it will be poured into a small glass, and no more than two will be given to you;
-the range of dishes for breakfast did not change during the entire period of our stay at the hotel;
-you will receive grilled meat only if you are ready to pay 10 euros per nose, and if you are not ready, you will receive only a side dish for this meat;
-there is no round-the-clock access to drinking water, therefore it is necessary to buy it and it is better to use cans of 5 liters and carry it up, you will not be able to cool it, there are no refrigerators in the rooms.
And if you rely on the Internet in the hotel, be mentally prepared in an old stationary computer with Internet for 5 euros 40 minutes, there is wi-fi in the hotel, but they won’t tell you the password from it at gunpoint.
Decide whether you are ready for all these benefits of civilization or not, I believe that if the cost of the tour is less than 11 per person for everything together, then a week can be tolerated, but if it is higher, then this is definitely not an option.

1. The hotel corresponds to objective reviews: modestly, a lot of people, normal, but monotonous food (and drinks), you have to go up and down, there is no entertainment, the area around the hotel is not very good, etc. 2. The main thing is not the tier of the hotel (there are 4 of them), but the floor of the room + view: the upper tier and the 1st floor immediately hit, the view from the terrace is a patch of bare red earth and a fence.

2. The main thing is not the tier of the hotel (there are 4 of them), but the floor of the room + view: the upper tier and the 1st floor immediately hit, the view from the terrace is a patch of bare red earth and a fence....We moved to the 3rd floor overlooking the sea is a different feeling.
3. Meals: if you are not in a hurry, come 40-50 minutes after the start of lunch (dinner) - there is no queue, but closer to the end of the time something may not be enough (more often a delicious dessert). Do not eat stewed fish for dinner - g... but rare. . .
4. Bar: sometimes for a couple of days there may not be some sort of alcohol ("it ended when they bring it, we don't know")
5. Territory: a labyrinth of small, 2-3 storey bungalows, if you don’t want fuss, it’s okay. There are a lot of trees, bushes, but no lawns, bare red land
6. Staff: Lena in the souvenir kiosk, I’m fine. , Reception-Inna (Russian) is kind of timid, Irina (Greek) is more fun... They try to answer questions, but not always in detail. In the bar there is a "real kid" : ) Andreas doesn’t go out of his way to pour more into a glass + doesn’t follow the “1 glass in hand” rule. Lusya (Russian) is the owner’s “six”, it doesn’t support us in conflicts. There is also a Greek woman aged 30-35: “chain dog” - a couple of times people wanted to take a piece of cake with them, she screamed like a victim, poking at the sign "fine 50 euros. " He still needs to clear the tables.
7. The beach is not well-groomed, the sunbeds are broken, but tolerable. You can walk to the left and the wild beach, and then the Creta Star hotel. can stay for 2 days. . .
8. The hotel does not have a refrigerator, shampoo, shower gel, towel dryer (take 2 meters of twine with you - tie it on the balcony)
9. Excursions were taken in the Yellow Train, it is 200 m to the left after the tunnel. The normal store is "Skaleta Market", a little further from the Yellow Train. In addition to excursions, we ourselves went by bus to Rethymno and Chania-Chania more interesting....In Rethymno on Thursday and Saturday - the "collective farm" market, in Chania exactly on Saturday there is more.
10. Immediately solve the issue of resettlement with the top manager (George), he is going to a meeting.
