The family who owned it and their smart intelligent English speaking children. Very welcoming helpful people. Nice homely Breakfast, clean room, good safe parking, full magnificent sea views. A Spar Supermarket nearby also Port for ferries to Corfu nearby and Tourist promenade in walking distance.

No lift as Hotel has Four Floors but was manageable.

The views from this hotel are absolutely stunning! It is so close to the water that we could hear the waves crashing all night. It was very relaxing. We were also upgraded to a sea view room when we checked in, which was very appreciated. Parking is available near the hotel and a full breakfast was also provided each morning.

I'm not sure if I missed it in the description, but there is no elevator in this hotel, so it's something to note if you have extra accessibility requirements. The bed was also a bit firm for our tastes, but I think that's fairly common here.

The room was basic (no wardrobe) but comfortable. Our room and balcony overlooked the sea. The young lady on reception (aged just 13!) was wonderfully welcoming. The breakfast was decent, the bed comfortable and the location good. Our only concern was beyond the control of the hotel, and that was loud music being played by boats passing the hotel. But when the boats weren't passing, the sound of the sea a matter of yards from our room was wonderful. No swimming pool is also something to be aware of. And if driving, go slowly as you approach the hotel as the entrance is easy to miss and the one way system would then be annoying!

More choice for breakfast ideally but as I say above, the breakfast was decent.

The room was newly renovated which was nice. Our friends had a room which had not been renovated. Location was good in that it was within walking distance to a lot of nearby restaurants and to the promenade. Clean towels daily was also great. Staff were very accommodating and willing to help which was great.

The bathroom in our room was tiny. Nowhere to hang your wet towels. The Room was also quite small and there was no place for your suitcases. The room next door stored their suitcases on their balcony. There was not much variety at breakfast with pretty much the same stuff each morning. The breakfast, in my opinion, was unfortunately not very good.

Very close to the Sea , location away from the main beach very quiet and peaceful , close to stores . Everything OK .

No elevator , the building has 5 levels , no information from the staff such as: where to eat what they recommend , what attractions you can visit in the area , in the hotel drink bar supposedly was but out of order . Frequent temporary power outages in the building , internet outages . No channels on TV , Breakfast 🤨 monotonous like camping . Payment for the stay on the day and only in cash . Nightmare parking , cars stuffed into every free space , blocked by others .

Location, on a quiet corner facing the ocean, but walkable to the main busy strip. Small, probably only about 30 rooms, family run, very close to the sea. Really pleasant room in terms of decor and size with a good size balcony and wonderful sea views. Exceptionally clean, comfortable bed, very clean bed linens.

The walk down to it was steep, rough concrete and there's no lift, so that needs to be stated so that more infirm folk don't book it.

The staff were incredible and accommodating. The hotel was incredibly well located with a public beach nearby. The room was really spacious and had a lot of the essentials like a fridge/AC/hairdryer - all at an affordable price. It was the perfect place to stay for a night!

The hotel was quite difficult to locate at first, the staff really helped us to find it which was appreciated. There weren't really a lot of options for breakfast - as a vegan, I would have really liked some alternative options such as soya milk or vegan butter/hummus but appreciate that this is a personal preference and not what may be ideal for business. There was loads of fruit/juices though!

If you want amazing sea and city views, super clean and modern hotel rooms, and e great location, this is the place for you! The owners/managers are very accommodating and gave us cold waters bottles as soon as we arrived! I stayed with my husband and our two 17 and 16 year old kids. The rooms were super comfortable and clean. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. The location could not be better! The hotel is beachfront and e short walk to the center of the promenade. We parked our car at the hotel but a car is not necessary. During the day we stayed at the beach by the hotel and then walked to the center at night! Everything you need is in a small walk. There is a large variety of restaurants and shops around giving you many options to choose from. Everything stays opened until late in the area. Super safe place for families! I would strongly recommend!

Review Great location. Right on the beach and a very short distance away from the city centre. Our room was facing the sea and the view was incredible. The room was also clean and they changed the laundry also regularly. We stayed here for three days and they tried to give variety in the breakfast. The breakfast spread was also good. I must narrate a small incident that happened to us. My husband forgot his wallet on the beach in the night and the next morning around 10 when we were ready to go out, he remembered about it. We checked the place but it was not there. The owners and their neighbours helped us find it. Their smart and brilliant daughter Kida called up the place we visited the previous night as well as helped us in translating our problem to other visitors on the beach which was very instrumental in getting our wallet back. Special thanks to Kida, her charming mother and helpful father. Also appreciate the honesty of Albanian people. All in all, we had a great experience. I strongly recommend this place.
