We just came back from our 6-night stay in Hotel Apollon and to sum everything up, this hotel puzzled us in many ways - both positively and negatively.
Good things:
- Quiet location. Has a stunning small beach near.
- Guys and a girl working at the bar in the beach were all lovely and approachable. These are the kind of people you need in your hotel - honest and hardworking.
- Breakfast was repetitive, but decent in general.
Bad things:
- They initially gave us a room that meant we were next to the noisy lift and that our balcony was facing a restaurant. We said no and they happily changed our room without any issues.
- Room was subpar in so many ways - first, the shower was designed so badly that whenever you take a shower, the entire bathroom gets wet. Not well-designed. You need lots of towel to soak the water out in the floor.
- The air-conditioning in the room was bad. On a random second, the temperature changes from 16 degrees to 25 degrees without you changing it and you just feel the room getting warm. On so many occasions, we’d wake up sweating. Just bad nights.
- We requested spare pillows but said hotel has ran out. Funny.
- We had a dinner one night and when we were about to pay, they said cash only as their machine is broken. My partner insisted that all day we have been paying by card and that we don’t have any cash left. And you know what happened next - card machine suddenly started to work. Miraculously.
