My wife and I spent three nights at Kostas' Villa Maria. He's a very nice bloke who picked us up at the town square and even helped us with the luggage. This was particularly helpful, because you have to walk a couple of stairs. He gave us so many great tips ranging from beaches and restaurants to concerts. Since he grew up in Syros there's probably no better guide when it comes to insider tips (if you want to avoid busy places). To sum it up, he's a great host. The room was very tidy and clean. From the balcony you have a nice view over the city and the harbour, perfect for a wake-up espresso in the morning. Since you can use the small kitchen in the hallway, you can easily prepare your own breakfast in the morning, if you like to. The bed was very comfy and you can use an AC to cool the room to a more pleasant temperature (after a hot day), but the room has generally a very cool climate. The bathroom was very clean as well. The house is very central (close to the townhall), so everything you need is very close. Although it is located in the centre, it is very quiet at night and you can easily sleep with your windows open. All in all, we had a great time and would definitely recommend a stay at the Villa Maria.
