House in Melissourgio

The house was perfect - different terraces and garden to be in or out of the sun as you wish.The owners' parents live below and couldn't have been kinder. Welcome cake, raki, biscuits and traditional spinach pies as well as produce from their garden with an open invitation to 'help ourselves'. Any slight problem which occurred was dealt with straight away and communication via Niki in the UK (we don't speak Greek sadly) worked well. There is a fairly busy road nearby which slightly spoilt the peace but it didn't affect our overall enjoyment of our trip and our visit to this holiday rental.

Anders als erwartet

Sehr netter Empfang, sehr gastfreundliche Familie. Alexandra und Mixalis wohnen parterre im selben Haus. Offensichtlich Straßenlage an der National Road, günstig zum Wegkommen, aber Straßenlärm bei offenen Fenstern und auf dem Balkon. Schöner Südostblick auf die Lefka Ori. Sehr großzügige und schicke Wohnung wie auf den Bildern. Zu beachten ist, daß die Eigentümer zwischenzeitlich auf ihrer Terrasse einen Grillbereich eingerichtet haben, hierdurch ggf. Rauchbelästigung möglich. Während unseren Aufenthaltes sind leider Mängel in den Bädern ersichtlich gewesen, die die Vermieter umgehend nach unserem Aufenthalt beseitigen wollen: tropfende Hähne und Ventile am Waschbecken mit kleinerer Überschwemmung nach jeder Benutzung, unpraktisch. Sauberkeit in der Küche mangelhaft (Lebensmittelrückstände in Kühlschrank und Mikrowelle, Krümel in den Schubladen, alter benutzter Kaffeefilter in der Kaffeemaschine). Bäder und Zimmer waren in Ordnung. Kommunikation läuft hauptsächlich und problemlos über den Sohn (per WhatsApp). Insgesamt angenehm und nett, aber anders als erwartet.
