Casa grande, tranquilla e riposante, ben attrezzata, Alcuni aspetti da migliorare.

L'esperienza che abbiamo avuto della proprietà è stata complessivamente buona e il rapporto qualità / presso è ottimo. La tranquillità del luogo e il grande spazio esterno sono aspetti vincenti. La casa è ben fornita di attrezzature e le camere sono accoglienti, anche se non grandissime; uno dei bagni è un po' piccolo. Gli aspetti da migliorare: *Nell'annuncio veniva presentata la presenza di connessione wi-fi, che invece non era presente. *Da migliorare decisamente la pulizia della cucina, stoviglie, frigo, etc. che non era adeguata. *Il sig. Menelaos non l'abbiamo potuto incontrare, ha risposto solamente ad alcuni SMS, soddisfacendo parzialmente alle nostre richieste.

Maravillosa casa de campo

Aunque no conocimos a Menelaos, nos recibieron sus padres de manera muy afectuosa y nos dejaron unos fantásticos productos típicos de creta recién preparados. La casa ideal decorada, cómoda y acogedora . Estancia muy recomendable. Nuestras vacaciones han sido fantasticas.
