I think it would be smarter to just stay in Fira or Oia personally. I also came in with kind of a bad taste about the place because my friend had canceled on me about two days after the booking and because of the strict cancelation policy, I had to keep the room and pay the whole price for just one person in a three person room. This was a bummer. I wish they could have some more understanding in this area. Otherwise it's a fine place to stay and it's clean but nothing more...no one to really give advice about what to do or recommendations...it was just fine. I never met the host.
