Original property, has really kind and courteous staff at the reception desk. A wide array of great breakfast items to choose from. Gorgeous location of the hotel all right in the center of town. Also - just off a square where there is a plenty of restaurants-a short walk through town to other restaurants and the Greek theatre and the coast and Enta. The pool area is good too. Superb facilities, parking nearby.
