Several of the guests were repeat visitors. Our visit got off to a bad start when we were asked for twice the tourist tax. As Stratos didnt have change (he rarely does have change :) ) he said we could pay later, when he explained he'd made a mistake over how long we were staying. Our room was a superior double as we wanted a little extra space. The cleaners do an excellent job and come in on Sundays, not always the case in Greek hotels. The shower is hand held but has a rail with a support so that you can use it as an overhead shower. It had a cubicle, not a curtain. Greek toilets so the usual bin for paper. The bed settee might be fine as a bed but the cushion is too far back for support so you'll end up sitting on one of the two chairs or out on the balcony looking over the pool. The pool is in full sun so although unheated it should warm up in summer. Two brave ladies swam in it even in April. Beds are firm - not as rock like as some Greek beds but probably should have asked if they could supply mattress toppers. Sink and fridge and 3 cups and saucers. Kettle could probably benefit from a better clean. Air conditioning was available for a fee, in April we could manage without it by opening the sliding door to the balcony as soon as we got in the room. We certainly didnt need the bedcover kindly left in our room on one of the cooler nights, most nights we pushed back the light duvets. Pool towels available for 5 euros a week. Safe was available for a fee, we didnt ask how much. Breakfast was very good. I was persuaded to try the yoghurt (I dont normally eat it) and that was excellent, thick and creamy. There were preserved fruits to add to it or some walnuts, almonds, dried fruit. There was a fruit basket that always had apples and oranges, some days a few bananas. Hot food varied but always some type of egg (fried, scrambled, omelette). Then *****s of ham or sausage or beans and mushrooms. Also cheese pies or cheese and spinach tray bake sliced up. Two toasters and preserves to add. Cold ham and cheese with tomato and cucumber. Boiled eggs available too. Nice bread but if you wanted gluten free you'd have to ask or take your own. Full fat or skimmed milk and I think soy milk available. Some days good mini croissants, sometimes apple traybake or biscuity things with chocolate sprinkles. Decent orange juice. Coffee machine had limited choices (espresso or filter coffee, hot water) and first day it wasnt hot enough water, second day was better. Still recommend taking a mug so you can get your coffee as you like it. Only saw a cat once and it stayed outside the restaurant after Stratos shooed it out. Ate a couple of lunches - filling, inexpensive gyros or sandwiches all that was available at the start of the season. Pool bar opens mid May, it suited us that there was no pool bar so it was quiet. There is a well stocked library in the breakfast area. Most books were in English, maybe 20 in either Dutch or German, one Greek. A Col
