The staff were unmotivated, we felt as a disruptive factor before. 12 days there was the 1 same sort of sausage and cheese for breakfast. Evenings no fetakäse to salad buffet. Somewhat Oleaginous the food, but apart from that enjoyed. The selection was evenings good. On 13. Day gave it then on several types of cold cuts, rolls and evenings a plate of various cheeses (also Feta). We had the feeling 'everything must go outside' the hotel closes in one week. In the morning 6:00 pitch, no path lighting to the street ( coach). A beautiful sandy beach and a crystal clear water. … read more
