This was a good price, a spacious triple room which was clean. The beds were a bit hard but that seems to be a Greek trait. It is situated with easy access to a good shop, walking distance to the beach and opposite a very good restaurant with Greek cooking. Highly recommended. Great food and good quantity, nice atmosphere.
The Airbnb was great. They leave you to get on with it. There is no one watching over you so you feel free to come and go as if it is your own place. There is a WhatsApp phone number to call if you need anything. The air con works well, which was important for us as we were there in a heatwave.
The only downside was the check-in. We were already staying in Perissa but just had to move out because they were fully booked. So I booked this place on Airbnb for one night to check it out. We had a lot of luggage cos we were coming from our home in Africa for a longer stay in the UK, so larger suitcases rather than small holiday ones. We had to check out at 11 and because it was a last minute booking from the day before it took a while to hear back from the hosts. I walked to where the map showed in the boiling heat. It reached 44 degrees that week. But after asking around I could not find the place. The map was inaccurate. So I went back to the kids sitting outside on their suitcases. Finally I heard from the hosts. He told us to come to a certain place which was a kilometer away. There was no way I could drag the suitcases there in that heat, so we had to pay 10 euros for a taxi. At the place they welcomed us with a complementary drink and we were able to cool down in the pool. They said a vehicle would come and take us to the place. After a while we were taken there only to find it was almost next door to where we were staying the night before. If only they had explained it was next to the launderette opposite Theiros restaurant they could have sent someone with a key. That would have saved waiting around for hours in the heat and the feeling of a wasted day.
After staying a night we decided to extend our stay for another night before we left for another island. I contacted the man to see if it was free. He said it was and would cost 70 euros and I should come to the beach place and pay. I decided to book on Airbnb and pay the lower price. A bit naughty really asking for cash like that.
After being on the other island I inquired on WhatsApp if the room was available. Hard to understand with the language barrier but I think he said no at first and then said the room was now 120 euros, so I just left it and booked another place.
But I do recommend this place to stay in for a cheap stay. There is a hob for cooking and a fridge so it can keep the cost down. And the place is nice and clean. But just be aware that the pool and beach area is quite a distance away.
