This is a classic 1960s Greek Hotel right on the front, but with so-so rooms, poor headroom, and rather naff breakfast, and a small pool right scarily under the local electricity substation.

At least the location is great - right on the seafront, and a short distance from the airport: alas the airport or port pickup costs 18 euro! Not the 5 euro they advertise. And then the airport's minibus doesn't take you to the door - but the bus stop up the road and around the corner. Mind you, when we left, even a taxi for the 5 minute hop to the airport cost 15 euro. It's a pricey area. There are wind up merchants who run the taverna at the front: when we arrived they told us the hotel was fully booked! Somehow, after a long trek there, I didn't think it funny.

This is one of the original Kamari hotels - and much of it hasn't been updated since the 1960s. At least we were offered the chance of two singles or a double: rare in Greece. Alas our room was right down in the basement - where there was a headroom height of 5 foot 11inches. Not great if you are six foot. And then - the worst problem! There was just a thin net curtain on the room. However we found that by using the two towels provided by the hotel, and a blanket we'd swiped from the British Airways flight, we could create a kind of impromptu curtain. Pure DIY.

More DIY was needed to fit the door to the bathroom. It doesn't shut after last year's earthquake. But then the plumbing was blocked too, with a nasty smell thanks to the wetroom style of it. There was a fridge, but no kettle. No remote for the air con. Poor reception on the TV, which showed Euronews and Al Jezera, but no BBC, or Star. There is free wifi - reception gave me the code - but only around the pool area and not in the rooms! All in all, the rooms are pretty naff.

There is a cheap and nasty breakfast offering in the morning, with ham, bread, and cheese. The Orange Juice is of the squash variety. Not good.

On all the pictures, the most alluring thing is the pool, and this is a great in the heat of a Greek summer - but it's also directly under the buzzing local electricity substation, with dangling wires: I found this all a bit disconcerting, and I was quite glad to leave. « less
