It was very close to the airport, which was what we we needed. It would be nice to have a little fridge in the room.

The hotel is about 15min walk from the airport. Easy to find. The staff were very helpful and nice. The room was clean and organized.
The shower wasn't so nice, it's a bath with no curtain so the floor gets very wet when showering.

The location was a 10-minute drive from Herakion Airport.
The owner was very friendly and the facilities and cleanliness were average.
I checked in around 9 o'clock, and it was great that there was a restaurant nearby that was open late, a 10-minute walk away.
