Beautiful Aigi Galini.
A beautiful place and only a short walk to enjoy the lovely little town. The owners/family were very helpful in pointing us to places of interest.

A Real Gem
A very welcome friendly atmosphere at the hotel. Very helpful and informative about the surrounding area. The hotel room was beautiful . Lots of room with a large balcony and lovely view. The room was updated but had retained some old world charm. The bed was large and comfortable.The town was off the main road and within easy walking distance. It was very quaint with lovely shops and restaurants. The beach was close but was slightly rocky so beach shoes are helpful.

Bait-and-switch with no refund and food poisoning
Booked the Sea View suite, but got a different room: "yeah, it was booked twice, so you got bumped". Refused to give any refund or make ANY goodwill gesture. The breakfast is pretty bad overall, and I got severe food poisoning from it (suspect the eggs, which I believe had salmonella). The showers are claustrophobic and the AC has a funky smell (but is, admittedly, very quiet). "All rooms are sound proofed" is a joke, the local youths on their mopeds running up and down the street come through just fine, especially as the bathroom window didn't close properly. There are MANY other good options here and this one is one to be avoided at all costs. This is the first time I have experienced such a difference between hotel rating (which is overall very good) and my experience.

Simple hotel at the village entrance
We stayed there for one night, our room was located on the third floor with a very nice view over the bay. The hotel is comfortable and spacious, our overall impression was ok but there are still opportunities for further enhancements. Neither advertised WiFi nor safe were available during our stay and hotel has no elevator. Good breakfast and convenient location, helpful staff.

One member of the stuff extremely rude.
One member of the staff (old man) was very rude to us couple of times. For this I would not recommend this hotel. Part of his problem was heavy drinking.

Wonderful hosts and a lovely port and beach.
Wonderful hosts looked after us so well. Nothing was too much trouble. Lovely room at the front of the hotel looking out to sea. Parking was easy and it's a 5 minute walk to the beach or the port/town. Incredibly pretty town with loads of tavernas. Beach also lovely with sun beds and tavernas- just buy a drink. We only stayed one night and wished we'd stayed longer. It's an older hotel but it's very clean and we had a wonderfully comfortable bed- not hard like so many. It was very windy but the beach and town were very sheltered. Safe swimming for children.

Crete for the weekend
We had a great time, but this was listed on trip advisor had this listed as near Matala, which it was not. The hotel was nice and the service was great!
