Hi all

We found this to be a really good value for money hotel. The buildings are a few years past their prime but we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and the staff were really friendly and helpful and the food was excellent but would not suit those who wanted to eat "British only".

The only real draw back that I could see was that the hotel is on the main road to Rhodes Town and trying to cross it during July and August will be pretty hair raising!

We stayed there last September and found it good value. Rooms are clean and spacious, bedding and towels changed daily.
Don't expect English cuisine, but DO try all the Greek food.
Buffet meals, with a fast turnover, warm, but never hot and never cold. Trays of food always being changed.
Fully air con rooms.
Charges for Safe deposit box.
Management were reluctant to let out rooms for last day, but shower and changing rooms were available.
Colditz Clamp must be worn at all times. (wrist band)
The beer is a lot weaker than the Taverna just outside to the right, so always ask for a Megalis biere.
Get up very early for a sunlounger, about 4.00 if you want to beat the Germans.
Not the best quality of sun loungers.
Chargeable sun loungers on the pebble beach.
One bad point was the fact that moggies were strolling round the lounge and squirting on the arm chairs, with no staff seeming to bother about getting them out. If we had done that, we'd have been barred or arrested. (I don't like cooking fats - Smilie) Ta Mr.Spooner.
5 Euros for a taxi into Rhodes. (It's as cheap in a taxi for 4 sharing as it is on the bus)
Don't buy beer in the yuppie type bars in the old city. (23 Euros for 1 beer and 3 OJ's) They look very tempting in the tall glasses.
Car hire from the company in the hotel is dearer than the local places, but safer. They have to be good or they are out of the place.
Turn right out on the main road and you will be able to drive round the island easily in a day, without having to cross the traffic flow to get to and from the many beaches. (It's like a racetrack)

Be VERY quick when you cross the road on foot, and ENJOY
