We choosed this hotel due to the fact that the place we normally stayes on the island was fully booked for the period we was visiting....but this was not a bad substitute at all after we had settled in and gotten over the fact that we was not at our regular joint.
There is always things that surprises you when you get to a new place and have read variouse comments here on TA....but in general I have to say that the experience turns out to be other then anticipated in all cases.
Let me start with positive experiences we had,
The Hotel is kept very clean and the Housekeeping department does not give up on getting to do your room even if you decide to sleep in the morning....although you never feel that they are pushing you out of the room to get it done. Very professional should cover it....
The breakfast kept running out of basics 2 hours before the breakfast time ended...that can't happen if they want people coming there and not be disappointed...croissants was there for the first hour and then it's was empty.. without exceptions..!!! Cheese, ham was replenished after asking several times for it...but this improved during our stay... the croissants did not....The person behind the breakfast counter was good and organized in a way and a smile would have helped him a lot...some was allowed to sit outside by the pool to enjoy and open air breakfast, some not....you had to be Greek or a relative....!! This things are noticed if you stay over a few days and see the routines...!!!
Talking about the pool...they had some seasonal help at the hotel...girls that helped cleaning the pool and helped out during breakfast....when the work was done they took the best sunbed positions at the pool for them selves...paying guest should have the first priority at the pool especially when there is only a few sun beds avail...but the girls never gave them up even if the spot they had was the only area around the pool with sun in the afternoon...very bad...!
So to some treasure this places had....even if Mykonos Town is a noisy town to be in....at night time with party and loud scooters running at all hours...there was hardly a sound to hear at this place...quiet and nice if you choose to take a night off from the nightlife...
The receptionist Juliana( Afternoon shift) and Vassilies (night duty) was some true gems to this place and made our stay fantastic...they are examples to follow when it comes to make the guest welcome and enjoying the stay. Those kind of people can make every one forget about the small hick ups. They made our stay at this place with their personalities and great attitude....without them the place would have been only average....they made it to a place where I would not hesitate to go back too and even recommend others to stay at....:-)) Thanks again Juliana and Vassilies for making our stay at Mykonos this time to also a memorable one....keep up the good work and hopefully the owners also see what assets you two are to this hotel...:-))
