I had great time in Batsi in Anssastsios' guest house, thanks to his son George, a real great guy which was very friendly, and helpful
and was very attentive towards any needs that had came up to me during a stay of 1 month,
and i must say that a whole month means that it's must been a lot, but nevertheless i always felt welcomed, and in home,
and almost as part of the family, so I'd like to praise George for his patience and hospitality which goes up and beyond,
George greeted me upon arrival and help me to carry my luggage up the stairs towards my room.
He speaks English as 1st language And Greek as the 2nd one, which is very interesting to hear his insights as a local
(yet a speaker of both laungeges at the same time, and his past living outside of Greece to for a while)
Insights about Andros and its culture and his own perspective.
And also to get his advices and travelling tips, suggestions, and assitance with daily needs etc, and we also had some interesting conversation regardless about all kind of topics.
So I'm glad that i now have a friend in Andros
Anyway, regarding the room, it provides a great value for the money in my opinion,it's a no frill and that is exactly part of the charm.
it provides most of the amenties
that i could have ever think of that are required for a relaxing holiday in my opinion, so i was satisfied
(and for other needs i could had always ask George for help)
and this is without taking the focus away from
"living in a greek island expirence"
And the picturesque village of Batsi
That being said there was still a good wifi and a TV that i never bothered to turn on.
there was a cleaning services couple of times a week, the view on the common balcony is very nice sunsets are amazing.
Ths guest house is extremely close to Batsi harbour with many nice tavernas nearby, and in good location in right between nice sandy beaches to rent a sunbed to nice snorkeling area, all within short walking distance.
In conclusion, highly recommended !
