    Excellent value for money for the single traveller, but the incident with my bike was a real downer

    If you are a light sleeper try not to get a room on the left of the hotel as you face it. This side is on a town bypass and gets constant noise; no double-glazing that I could see. But my biggest disappointment was an unpleasant scene with one of the staff who clamped my bicycle when I put it somewhere behind the hotel for safety and to keep it dry. It was something against all the 'filoxenia' one expects in Greece, let alone from the viewpoint of guest care.

    Views of hills; constant hot water; dawn chorus; sunrise

    Things we don't like ❌ ●Cleaning is poor. 4 squashed and dead mosquitos on the bathroom wall when we arrived. ●Balcony very dirty. Covered in soot from the cars below. Never cleaned. I used a towel to clean this and it was filthy. Images attached. ●Room is VERY warm as there is no window. Thank goodness though for free air con! ●Very uncomfortable mattress. No bed Protectors and it isn't a proper mattress so a weeks stay was a challenge! ●Being watched and followed when taking breakfast items. Staff ate horrendous. ●THE rudest staff members ever. So called managers never smile, never greet you and go out of their way to be nasty. Never greeted, never smiled. Never said good morning. Followed us around during breakfast. Grunting, miserable and incredibly unhelpful. ●No toiletries. Not even hand soap. ●No new loo roll given to us during our stay. Had to ask and when asked, the complained about staff member was very rude indeed. ●Towels small and meagre. ●Bathroom drain did not function properly so the floor was always drenched for hours after a shower. ●Pressure and temperature hit and miss. ●Got a blanket as was cold during the stay, on our penultimate night, the cleaner came in, didn't clean the room but took away the blanket!? ●Downstairs toilets often without loo roll and very dirty. Like a forgotten space! Sink full of sand and dirt. ●Fridge turns off when card no in slot and when you are out so everything gets warm, the room gets VERY warm and it takes a while for the fridge to power up and get cold again. Suggestions ●Read the reviews! The most recent ones are VERY poor. ●Train/hire new staff. ●Renovate the bathroom. ●CLEAN! ●Hire an English speaking member of staff. A friendly one ideally. I have made a formal complaint to Booking.com about the male 'manager' here and cleaning issues.

    Things we like ✅ ●Location is great! 20 minute walk from the harbour, right opposite the marina, close to Old Town and 5 minutes if that to paradise beach. ●Fabulous breakfast. Lots to choose from. During our stay (1 week), this diminished every day. By the last day, it was very poor. No coffee, no juice, lacking in bread, eggs and jams. Condiments were often empty. When asked why and for more, the male older member of staff just said 'it is cheap, it is finished'. ●Free air con. However, room gets VERY warm as there is no window. Guess this is why air con is included. ●Acceptable for a short stay.

    I was happy to have a room after sailing on the seas. Staff gave me my room key, that's all I needed.

    Very good value room with breakfast on Kos Marina. If you want somewhere to sleep and your own bathroom, with view over the marina this is perfect. No frills good value. I would stay again as I only need my hotel to sleep in! £25 for double.room with breakfast.

    Bit of a noisy road at night, probably quieter around the back but we were happy to make that sacrifice for the view. The staff on the front desk seemed a bit sullen. It doesn't cost to be welcoming and friendly.

    The breakfast which was included in our deal was really good with plenty of choice from a continental style buffet. The cleaner who also helped in the kitchen was so friendly, with a natural smile and respectful .. just a natural pleasant attitude. The location across from the marina we loved because we could take a walk along the front toward the old town which took 15 mins passing many shops and restaurants along the way. The view from our sea / marina facing balcony was really nice.

    The room and balcony door were both broken, and at one point we got stuck out on the balcony, had to ask a neighbour to get help, when someone came there was no apology or attempt to fix it. There was no information provided to say when breakfast was or the WiFi code. At breakfast, I was still eating at the table at 10am, at which point someone tried to take my plate even though I was still eating, then someone else came across, asked if I was finished, which I wasn't, and then told me breakfast stopped at 10am so I needed to finish, which I have never experience in a hotel and found very rude. The daytime staff were quite rude and not helpful, and often not at reception to ask for help.

    Nice view from the room balcony across the hills. Continental Breakfast was nice. The overnight staff was lovely

    They advertised check-in after midnight so it was lucky I phoned after the booking because they were clearly not aware they offered that.In fact they made me call back in 10 mins to co firm THEY had the room! You can feel the hard springs in the mattresses and the blankets provided are too thick

    Friendly service...when I got there The air con works well

    Bathroom was so old so 80’s, shower curtain closed a really small area and you feel stuck inside. Handheld shower head was like a garden hose with no head.

    It was so clean and they were helpful about the early chech-in and the A/C worked perfectly.

    Professional pictures are not telling the correct story. Hotel is run down compared to the pictures. I was shocked to see the hotel. But to be honest we just slept in the room and was spending more time outside the hotel.

    Location was good and walking distance from Kos Town. Check-in and Check-out process was smooth. Love the Greek yogurt in Breakfast.

    The staff was on the gruff side, but helpful nevertheless. The beds were not very comfortable, and generally the facilities are dated.

    The location is great, very close to the center if town and the ferry harbor. The hotel room was also exceptionally clean
