First, this was a spontaneous gluecksgriff, after a week Aphrodite Beach in Gouves, which also four Greek. Star. I got a double room as a single traveller, as the hotel was fully booked my family. Location is at the end of the central Ortskernes from beach-Gouves, this expression, as the place itself not really exists. Many hotels are on the water a.k.a. and numerous tavernas and small markets. You should have a rental car to everything can be reached easily and quickly to, bus is 10 minutes away. But a little out of the way of the large action, but also not predominates in Gouves. So more for families and those in search of peace and quiet. The hotel is also Familiengefuehrt and it seems it, there are two houses each period of three levels are and double bed and balcony, TV is available only in Gouves Mare house. Free internet access in the lobby, on one computer. Hotel should rather travelled French and British. There is a pleasant atmosphere, as opposed to the aforementioned Aphrodite Beach, where Russian and Polish. The main goal at all seems Gouves O. Crete East European traveler and I didn't want to mention. There were some problems if the guests were didn't work. Such problem in Gouves sea/Mare not, it is small and well arranged but it's very civilised. The food is great if you satisfied with not expect 10 different types of food. There were always fresh fruit which no rule is in Crete's hotels. Also the preparation is excellent and you can tell the since many things with love. Whereas the greek way of life is always there, but I don't expect German Gruendlichkeit on holiday. The things, which are important are perfectly fine. Breakfast is a little English style but I suppose that is like that everywhere. You get but adequate and hearty to sweet everything was there. And the dinner is perfect as I said in the preparation and the service. No pushyness de's staff but English reserved at the beginning, but always attentive. Small Unannähmlichkeit is increasingly becoming Sighted at extra charge of the drinks. But this is probably generally until with all inclusive, and this has to be I do not have, as I saw this goes on. No comparison but the unconditional Abtrinken Paid. But what a Niveaufrage, where you can buy stuff for children and the prices for resorts are acceptable. It is expensive, but this one on the edge of the Baltic Sea, and I also top water and sun guaranteed. The rooms are ok with the size, since I was alone perfect. Beds very rueckenfreundlich balcony and very large. Sea view which is 50 meters away, and the pool was never crowded. Sandy beach for children in about 100 meters, so it wasn't far. Staff very friendly and always polite, you just have to English or French, German is not the Haussprache, but had no problems communicating kplappt this. And I expect abroad not that I was unterhaelt where they lack of entertainment, which of course yes to taste, well ok may Not be. I think it is good, and to the conclusion: for 50 Euro per day and half board, you can't go wrong with your own check in. I wish this hotel to keep this Standard, which due to its size probably possible. It is not typical German, but if you don't have problems with other nations, this does not before problems. A definite recommendation for all the not want to be entertained and a certain luxury at an affordable price budget. And on the ubiquitous eastern european accents.
