Santorini Mesotopos

We arrived earlier in the day & asked if we could do early check in. We were told that the room we have booked isn’t available early, so we could upgrade to another room & get early check in option. We agreed. When we checked in the room didn’t look like any upgrade, as it was pretty basic. Also, if these are how most of the rooms are, they aren’t great. The room had a stair to go ‘up’ where a tiny bed was places, and the ceiling was so low that even a 5-foot height tiny person like me would bump her head. The stairs aren’t too safe, so if you have to walk down in the middle of the night to use the bathroom below the bed area, you better be fully awake & cautious if your steps. Shower didn’t work properly with hot/cold water. I couldn’t wash my hair, had to quickly get out of the shower. I would have preferred, if they just told us there was an extra charge for early check in. In case I’m wrong, and this room was indeed an ‘upgrade’ then I don’t know what the basic room will be. Can’t imagine what would be even lesser. Maybe no window / balcony. The swimming pool was closed, probably because it was still cold when we went. The property looks nice though, it’s just 10 mins taxi ride from the city square. The rooms have a balcony & peaceful view as there aren’t too many buildings around. It’s quite & clean. Just that the rooms are too basic & the tiny bed in tiny space was uncomfortable for two people to sleep in. It was claustrophobic for me. Couldn’t sleep well, couldn’t bathe well. But I did enjoy sitting in the balcony & sipping my tea in peace.

Hôtel très bien situé, à moins de 5min en quad de Fira, 25min de Oia, et 20min des plages. La vue est splendide, je recommande cet hôtel. La seule déception est le manque de geste commercial, nous n’avons pas pu obtenir remboursement d’une nuit passée à l’aéroport à cause de l’incapacité d’atterrissage dû au vent sur l’île (la raison : notre chambre était réservée, mais ils n’étaient pas complet donc pas trop compris).

Avoid at all costs! Truly awful experience! Our room, which wasn’t even the economy option, was unclean and included a broken toilet seat, stained & rusty bathroom fixtures, no washing facilities in the kitchenette. Our bed was ridiculously uncomfortable with a huge dip in the mattress. The pillows were like sleeping on concrete. We work up each morning with terrible back and neck pain. Upon trying to make the bed comfier somehow, we uncovered huge stains to the mattress. The breakfast was awful and we cannot believe we had to pay for it. The very small portion included a slice of toast which was stale, a hard boiled egg, small pot of yogurt and some stale tasting cake. The location isn’t ideal, at the lower end of a steep hill. You would need to higher a car to get around. Not worth anymore than €25 a night. We have stayed in much better places here with amazing facilities for half the price so please look for other options.

What a hidden gem of a property. The views are of the opposite side of the sea but still amazing. The entire hotel staff was great, shout out to Flora!

Absolutely lovely stay! Flora was so welcoming and a great host. The room was lovely and the pool was amazing! The hotel was a little bit further away from Thira than I thought but the public buses/ taxis were so easy, it wasn’t a problem. Would definitely stay here again!

Tout simplement honteux! Je regrette ce choix d'hôtel. On se retrouve dans une chambre miteuse et sale. On se casse le dos sur un matelas vieux et de mauvaise qualité. Cet hôtel est loin du centre, le service de taxis est extrêmement coûteux. Et par dessus le marché, la patronne est exécrable... une arnaque! À fuir!
