Good points:
- good location for village centre, bars & restaurants, shops, car park & St Pauls Bay
- good value for money compared to a lot of similar venues near the centre
- Netflix on tv & lots of Greek channels (though sadly BBC & other English language channels didn’t work)
- host was attentive and provided good instructions & helped to get taxi driver
Bad points:
- location is less good for the two main public beaches, about a 15min walk, I think if you’re only there for beach days then something on the other side of the village might be better (St Paul’s is a lovely beach but small and expensive)
- quite small, even with only two people
- bathroom was a bit dated
- could have done a bit better on cleanliness, there were hairs in the plug hole, footprints & some dried blood on bedding, noticed ants in room & on bed on second day (host says they spray regularly)
- can hear a lot of noise from neighbouring flats in the same building, especially as the venue is right next to the front door and stairs, can hear everyone coming and going + any time other flats use the shower or toilet. It’s not the hosts fault, but we had a horrible time with young men staying in neighbouring apartments, shouting, arguing, slamming doors & having visits from random girls in the middle of the night which we had to listen to! One night we didn’t sleep until 5am (and had to be up at 8 for our flight!!!). Again, the host can’t do much about this, but it’s worth anybody who is a light sleeper or likes quieter places knowing that every noise echoes and will keep you awake!
