The only place I’ve ever stayed in my life where that happened (2) AC blows directly on the bed and it’s freezing. (3) it’s the furthest west accommodation near the beach from restaurants. Just some things to be aware of. Otherwise it was clean and affordable and the owner was friendly. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Aug 7, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Sehr schönes, modernes und geschmackvoll renoviertes Hotel, super Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis, geräumiges Zimmer mit gut ausgestatteter Küche (Badezimmer ein bisschen klein, aber ok), sehr freundlicher Besitzer, gleich über die Straße ist der hoteleigene Strand, am Rand von Kokkari sehr ruhig gelegen, dennoch Tavernen, Bars, Autovermietung und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in unmittelbarer Nähe.
