We read several reviews on other sites before booking this hotel.
We found out from the locals that this hotel is heavily advertised.
We arrived at the hotel at around 9 pm. It looked really nice and the person at the reception was friendly.
The room was small (very small) however the furniture and decoration was traditional. The bathroom was really a converted closet with literally no room to move in the shower.
Despite all this we decided it was not too bad and that this was the price to pay for traditional (on top of our 90 euros per night).
Unfortunately, we immediately made another discovery! We were not the only ones staying in that room. Tens of big flying ants were sharing our bed, cushions and bathroom!
As soon as we walked into the bathroom to have a shower we discovered two(!) leaks from the cistern that caused the whole bathroom floor to be converted into a big (or I guess small since the room is tiny) puddle. It was impossible to walk in and if you dared falling over was inevitable.
We complained to the person at reception who said that he could not do anything for the leak that night (these leaks had obviously tried being repaired before as there was cling film(!) over them). It would have to be fixed the next day.

About the ants, we were told that “It’s this time of the year” and that another customer had an even bigger problem with hundreds of them. I wonder if that was meant to say that we are lucky….There was nothing they could do about it. All other rooms were booked…
We suggested that we go out for a walk and they’d do their best to vacuum the room, at least to get rid of them for the night.
When we returned at after 11.30 pm and absolutely exhausted, we tried to forget about it all and get some sleep. Because the room was next to reception and the front door, which everybody had to knock coming in (for that extra traditional touch) we didn’t manage to get any rest until 3.30 am.
At around 6 am we realised that apart from all the problems, we were given an east facing room with no blinds and no black out curtains!!!
We packed everything up and decided to leave. The owner didn’t care why we were leaving after only 1 night stay when we booked for 4 and when we asked for them to find us alternative accommodation the response was “If you don’t like it, sue me!.”
In fact, he said a lot more, but I’m getting tired of listing all the issues…
If after all that you still want to know about the breakfast, let me tell you it was very poor in choice and quality. Long life juice, dry cake, boiled eggs and 1 piece of cheesepie per person. They made sure of that as it was the only thing brought to the
table instead of sitting at the buffet for the flying ants to consume before us!More
