Unforgettable Return To Timeless Spetses

Nothing was the worst accommodation I've stayed in: an old building with no maintenance, tiny rooms, a broken bathroom with dripping water, old windows that creak. We paid for three nights but only stayed one. Far from the center, with steep hills and an extra set of stairs to climb with luggage. It's a shame that Booking lists and advertises such places on its site.

“Nice owner, but the place is worn down and expensive for what you get”

The hotel owner is lovely and the location offers a nice view over the island. However, the place feels very tired, and the room was very basic with old sheets and a mattress. I stayed during high season, but €83 a night is too much for what you get. There's no cleaning service or breakfast, just a small communal kitchen for coffee, so it feels more like a hostel.

The accommodation was completely neglected. The room was filthy; the sheets were obviously not changed, were stained with cigarette smoke, the towels were yellow, used, and smelled bad—an odd odor of mildew everywhere. Spider webs covered the room, and the bathroom, though small, was the least of the problems. If it’s reasonable for us to clean it ourselves to stay dignified, then what can I say… Sheets and towels never changed during the four days, though I didn’t demand it; at least they should have been clean. There was rust in many places in the room and outside. The air conditioner existed but there was no remote to use it. Finally, hot water for the bath came in bursts; sometimes only in the mornings, other times not at all. Unfortunately, a bad choice, even though the island is beautiful.

“Authentic Greek Island stay at a perfect location with a very hospitable host”

The location is perfect, close to the city centre, and the host is amazingly helpful and kind.

“Μην κλείσετε αυτό το κατάλυμα! Είναι πολύ βρώμικο και ο ιδιοκτήτης αγενης”

Only the view from the balcony could be enjoyed, but the room and bathroom were so smelly that it was impossible to appreciate it. Even the chair on the balcony, where one could sit, was broken. Do not close it! The sheets were unwashed, as were the towels, and had been used by previous guests. There were hair from previous guests on the sheets and underneath them. The bathroom was filthy to the point of being potentially hazardous to guests' hygiene. At night, small roaches crawled out of the bathroom faucet. After persistent intervention with Booking and the management company to clean the room, the owner did nothing to clean it. When I told him I was not satisfied with the room, he responded rudely and with a tone that he was not even satisfied with me. Rude, condescending, and a scammer. He wants to make money from rooms without lifting a finger. The shame of tourism on the island. When I told him I paid €120 a night and demanded at least a clean room, his answer was that he only receives €85 from the amount I pay to Booking. I don’t know why that information matters to me as a guest! I pay for a service and I don’t demand luxuries, only the obvious: cleanliness! The conditions at the accommodation are dangerous for personal hygiene! The garden around the accommodation is neglected and unkempt! The owner is audacious! We lost the few days of vacation we had.
