Disappointed
Unfortunately the place was a bit of the disappointment, and after one night I booked somewhere else and left. Normally I am not that fussy with the small details, but too many small details added up which made me want to leave. Fortunately I think many of these details can be fixed. The photos look lovely but our room was a little dreary, the walls were very bare and it was much less welcoming. The little kitchenette still had some dirty cups in the cupboard when we arrived and the bathroom was half flooded and smelt like a gents toilet. The cleaner did come and clean up the bathroom for us and left an air freshener in there, but the smell did come back not long after, so I'd assume maybe a plumbing issue. The beds weren't very comfy, but I wasn't expecting much, normally I don't mind what mattress I sleep on. But I also booked this room as it was advertised with a double bed, which I specifically wanted instead of two singles pushed together, not very romantica. Our door would only lock from the outside, which we managed to just walk round from the bedroom door and lock, small detail I would have been fine with normally. The pool unfortunately due to it's placement is in the shade for a large part of the day, however it looked very clean and lovely. I think all these little details for me individually were fine up until the piss smell in the bathroom being bandaided with an air freshener. That was the final straw for me to leave and book elsewhere.

Love this place but it needs lots of attention
This place could be a gem with some love and attention. PRO:Our room was cleaned randomly over 3 weeks. Love the location and the view. Pool was ready. Fridge & stove worked. Plates & cutlery provided. Lisa,PR girl did her best with what she had to work with. CON: Needs maintainence and regular upkeep. No one at the reception ....... ever. TV will work IF you have a seperate wifi code AND you are a techie and can find where to enter said wifi code. I,personally swept and cleaned up the front entrance,it needs alot of attention to make it welcoming.. Hot water is best between 4-7 p.m. No recycling. We had to buy our own toilet paper for the last 3 days . Just needs cleaning up around the place, things put away instead of laying about and better management. . There is no one there to ask questions to i.e. how to work the TV, or if there was an emergency (plumbing,electrical) or any issue at all. Big language barrier with cleaning lady. Lisa would check in on us on the days she was there and then relay any issues we had to her boss. Bathroom showers need an update. If this place can get it together it will be a great little hotel.

Quiet, small block of apartments with lovely views
We were hoping for a quiet, peaceful holiday (without the children!). The apartments whilst basic have everything you need . If you have a late flight, are permitted to leave your bags and use the communal shower and toilets. We were allowed to keep the room with it being out of season which was a lovely touch.

The hotel is on a hillside about 20mins from the beach. It is an okay place for the price nothing really special. The swimming pool is very small so i never swam in it but they do have ping pong table which sort of made up for when I did not want to go to the beach side.

A pleasant hotel for the price.
The apartment was ideally situated for the Koutouloufari village, and two others, which are just up the hill. The 3 villages are perfect for evening meals of a more authentic Cretan feel, with just a splattering of bars around. Mali is a cab ride away, thankfully. We found the villages more than enough to keep us entertained, and made the mistake of venturing into Mali for a livelier evening. It is exactly as you would expect. The apartment complex is small, and can be noisy as groups of younger guests come and go, but not too disturbing. The pool is lovely and private, but seriously needs to be cleaned daily. Cigarette butts and empty drink cans and bottles littered the area for the duration of our stay. The room was as expected. The only aircon area was the room with 2 beds, (extra fee for aircon) leaving the remaining 2 beds in main apartment area without. The lady in reception was lovely and very helpful, as we had to ask her for various things throughout the week, including bath towels as the cleaner left only hand towels for us. The biggest complaint would be the leak in the very small bathroom around the toilet. It was reported, but never resolved, leaving the bathroom constantly wet and the feeling of being dirty!

Fantastic apartments, great service
I Booked based on the customer reviews and was not disappointed. Though a 15 minute walk from the main strip of Hersonissos the apartments are only a few minutes walk from lots of great tavernas, bars and supermarkets. The room was very clean and comfortable, and while the kitchen facilities are limited they were enough for occasional light meals. Don't expect to be able to cook a full meal but with so many great, affordable restaurants within walking distance you don't need to. Katerina and Manolis were very friendly and helpful, providing lots of information about how to make the most of my trip. Katerina was also thoughtful enough to drop off a mosquito repellent plug after I realized I'd forgotten to pack one. The WiFi was reliable and fast throughout the hotel. Hersonissos itself was too touristy for me, and while there were plenty of places to eat 'authenticity' isn't the word you'd use to describe any of them. However Koutouloufari more than made up for that. A visit to The Alchemist restaurant is essential (as is a reservation!), and I'd highly recommend Pithari Restaurant also, both less than five minutes away. Though the apartments are no more than 15 minutes walk away from Hersonissos be aware the hill is quite steep, and could be difficult in the summer heat. Overall I would highly recommend the Romantica Apartments, and Koutouloufari and would be very happy to book again

Pas cher et bien situé
Nous avons passé 10 jours dans cet hôtel. L'hôtel est bien situé entre le petit village de Koutouloufari et Hersonissos (plage, resto, boutiques). Il y a également l'arrêt de bus à moins de 10 min à pied. Bon rapport qualité prix. La piscine est agréable, ensoleillé le matin. Les chambres sont propres. Seul bémol la lumière du jour passe à travers les rideaux le matin.
