Florin I.
Although the staff were friendly and explained everything from check-in through checkout, our stay left a poor impression. At departure, they gave the kids juice and waived the city tax. But when I asked to move to a room that matched what we’d booked, they refused and said, “Booking made a mistake.” The property supplies its description to the platform, so that response felt like a refusal to take responsibility. I’d booked a “Superior Triple Room with sea view,” but our room faced the land and road, directly onto the main highway. The balcony was spacious and useful, yet looking at traffic and hearing it constantly made it unpleasant. The traffic noise went on day and night, with no real soundproofing despite what was advertised. The sea is far away, at most a very distant partial glimpse. There was no wardrobe or storage space, so our clothes and luggage stayed on the floor. The bathroom had no window or fan, which was uncomfortable, especially after using the toilet. The shower’s water stream was uneven and didn’t work properly. Breakfast was basic but fine, with eggs, cereal, milk, coffee and juice. The pastries were the same every day, so there wasn’t much variety. The fridge was handy, though a bit noisy. Common areas felt austere and lacking in atmosphere, more like a guesthouse than a 3-star hotel. For seven nights we paid about €770 for a “superior triple with sea view” and got a much lower standard room facing the road, with several comfort problems. It didn’t feel like good value.

We were in town for a Greek wedding, and the hotel owner went out of her way to help. I wasn’t sure where my hairdresser appointment was, so she offered to drive me there. She’s the nicest person you could wish to meet. Breakfast was fresh every day with plenty of choice, and the rooms were cleaned to a high standard daily. The hotel was modern, clean and welcoming, just as described. It’s a five-minute walk to a beautiful beach and restaurants. We couldn’t have asked for more, and it was great value. Thank you, Golden Sunlight, for the hospitality.

What a lovely find at a reasonable price. It was spotlessly clean, the staff were helpful, and the pool was nice. There’s no attendant at the pool, but it isn’t too deep and has the same depth from one end to the other. The road out front is busy, though after a while we hardly noticed it. Planes pass overhead because it’s under a flight path, but that wasn’t an issue for us unless you’re easily irritated by noise.

The fresh Cretan breakfast was the best part, prepared each morning by Mrs. Chisoula. Mrs. Michalis took care of everything with a smile, and we hope to come back next year. The hotel is also close to the beach and local restaurants, with spacious, very clean rooms, room service, parking, bathroom amenities, a pool, and a garden.

Michalis, Ursula, Jenny, and Manos made our month-long stay especially good. They're warm, welcoming, and happy to help with anything. The hotel is small, quiet, and nicely decorated, and our room was kept spotless. It's an easy walk to the beach, with a local bus stop right beside it for getting along the main road. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.
