Overall this is a good value, especially for the location. However, as you are considering your Oia vacation there are a few considerations:
Pros:
- Good price for Oia, especially given location (central, very near the sunset watching area)
- BIG (3 bedrooms - could easily hold 3 couples)
- Hot tub
- Daily maid service
Considerations:
- Checking in was challenging if you arrive before check-in time (2pm I believe). We arrived early in the morning, and it was easy to connect to store our bags, but it was difficult to get in touch later in the day when we actually wanted to check in and get access to the building. We ended up hanging out for an hour waiting to make contact. I don't think you would run into any challenges if you per-arranged an arrival time after the check-in time.
- Most hotels will offer breakfast as part of your stay. Just keep in mind that you will miss this luxury (we found Hungry Donkey near the bus station, which had good coffee).
- Cleanliness was moderate. Primary facilities (bedroom, bathroom) were great, but I found stray hairs on the inside and outside sofa.
- Initially the hot tub was only warm. The porter (who thankfully lived downstairs) was able to adjust the temperature. However, I'm a little disappointed it wasn't maintained at a standard hot tub temperature (especially given the communication challenges mentioned above).
Overall, given the price per night, I really wish the check-in had been smoother and the apartment was cleaned more thoroughly (especially since this unit is being run as a business - not an extra room in someone's house). However, neither of these were deal breakers and the location was super convenient. Great option for groups.
