"Although it was about a 15/20 minute walk to the harbour and the old town, the hotel was only a 3 minute walk to Nea Chora beach."

A Mixed Stay with Bed and Noise Issues

short walksqueaky bedthin walls

The location was acceptable, being a short walk to the beach.

The bed was terrible. It squeaked with every movement. The noise from the street at night was distracting and the walls felt thin. Between the bed and the noise, I struggled to get any proper sleep during those nights.
