Homestays in North Aegean, Greece

We didn't actually stay here, so I don't want to give a bad review, but just register my dissatisfaction. Within minutes of booking this hotel, I asked if I could have a refund because of a mix-up, but was told no due to the hotel policy. I know it's the hotel policy! That's why I'm asking for an exception! I realize the hotel is within its rights to refuse, but to be honest, this attitude really put us off, and what was to be our first trip to Greece didn't happen - we decided just to stay in Turkey instead. Hopefully we will encounter a more easygoing and helpful attitude if we decide to try to visit Greece in future.

Great old mansion refurbished to cater as a comfy inn. Five rooms only and common veranda gives it boutique feel. Location is ok, 8-10 min walk to the beach and tavernas by the sea. Parking can be tricky in high season, but you'll find a slot in neighbouring streets. Very polite staff. Nice and well served breakfast, including fresh orange juice (no espresso/cappuccino though). Good deal and a relaxing stay.

The location is remote and there are no shops around. Originally booked a family five-person room (ㄧ double bed, ㄧ sofa bed, one living room) became a room, the living room has two single beds, no living room. No tea cups, no shampoo. In the orange garden, there are beautiful roses.
