The whole place smells like cigarettes, bathroom had what appeared to be black mold under the bathtub & there was hair on the floor from previous guests. All that being said the bed was really comfy & the area was close to all the fun restaurants but far enough away to be quiet

Partially good accommodation
Excellent staff service and big size of room, but should be improved significantly the cleaning: old stains in many parts of the furniture room and dust, also in the bath (shower top). What a pity because the venue is really awesome!

Amazing staff
The staff are amazing! They were very helpful when we had a problem with the rented car, they talked (greek) to the renting car company and sorted things for us. Location is also great, near the beach area and the old town.

The beds were not comfortable. Everything is so old and not really functioning well. The room air conditioner hardly cooled the room but the bathroom wall hair dryer from the 1970's got so hot on the handle you finish drying your hair. Definitely should not have "Palace" in its name.

It was a great hotel with nice crew. We enjoyed our stay there, and the breakfast was adequate; however, I would have liked to have more food variety (especially for vegetarians).

Room is clean and spacious. close to the beach. Friendly staff. There was varied selection offer in breakfast. The swimming was a key factor that we choose the hotel. However it was not available during our stay in early November.It would been helpful to know this in advance from our booking
