Amalia gets 10 stars out of 5- she is so wonderful, welcoming and kind. The apartment itself gets 4- all in all a good experience with a couple minor issues. I stayed here for 20 days.

The highlights:
-The place was very clean when I arrived- clean sheets, towels, kitchen and bathroom. Amalia came by to change the sheets about half way through my stay which was very nice.
-I liked that the location was a bit quieter and removed from the city. It is probably best for someone who will be renting a car/moped, but I got around just fine within Ialyssos using her bicycle, and from Ialyssos it is easy by bus to get to Rhodes.
-I LOVE the cat.
-Amalia was so kind as to share some of her cooking and she is an excellent cook.

The low-lights:
-There were quite a lot of spiders, and some insects. I found a cockroach one morning. I am not sure if this is just normal for Greece. Nothing harmful, probably normal house insects.
-There is internet in the house but the signal is not strong enough to reach the studio. I had intermittent connection and when it worked at all it was slow- just enough for texting/email. One night I needed to attend an online class and Amalia allowed me into her livingroom upstairs.
