All amenities made for a very enjoyable stayPeter from Australia (10/10)
We really enjoyed our stay. It is a 10 to 15 minute walk to train, bus, shops, Greek restaurants and Church. It is a 300 metre walk to the laundromat which is functional, accepts bank card for washing machine and dryer but coins are needed for detergent. The unit was clean, tidy and as described in the description and photos. Our hosts were pleasant. The neighbourhood is beautiful and peaceful. No car was needed by us to do what we wanted to do.
