Reviews and Ratings
The hotel provides pretty standard Greek apartments that are very clean and have all you need for a comfortable stay. The option of air conditioning adds to the comfort, especially at night. It's a solid choice for the price.
I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel! The rooms are very spacious with a nice big balcony, a fridge, and a big wardrobe, all clean and had everything we needed. The service was top-notch, with funny and welcoming staff that were more than helpful in every aspect. The location is perfect, within walking distance to the shops, bars, restaurants, and the main Strip, yet in a quiet and relaxing area. The dining experience at the lovely mountain top Taverna was memorable. All this made my stay enjoyable, although the lack of included Wi-Fi was a minor downside.
The apartments are perfect for a stay close to the lively Malia new town but far enough away to relax in peace and quiet. The rooms are amazing and clean, making it a great choice for your accommodation. Makis and the team made us feel incredibly safe and welcomed, which truly enhanced our experience. The location is fantastic, with everything from the beach to the party strip within walking distance. The dining experience, especially at the lovely mountain top Taverna, comes highly recommended. The facilities are top-notch, offering everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
I had a mixed experience at Danelis apartments. The rooms were spacious with a lovely balcony and cleaned daily, but the furniture was old, and there were some cleanliness issues. The noise levels inside and outside the room at night were a downside. The service was friendly and welcoming, suitable for guests of all ages, but nothing particularly extraordinary. The location was great, within walking distance of the beach, town, and restaurants, offering a good balance of convenience and tranquility. The dining experience included lovely options outside of normal breakfast hours, but nothing exceptional. While the facilities were satisfactory, the outdated furniture and noise levels affected my overall satisfaction.
