EEvanChingHotel is located in an excellent position for the 2 villages, just inside Koutouloufari and straight into Piskopiano where there are plenty places to eat of good quality including shops for provisions, not all were open as just at start of season. Hotel offers free mini bus from top of stairs into Hersonissos resort, 3 times a day. Arrival – booked with Jet 2, dropped off at top of stairs, next to restaurant (this is where you will eat your evening meal if booked half board), leave luggage here, hotel will take it to your room, by van. One of 2 ways down to reception, yes very steep, some rooms located either side of steps, limited privacy, can be noisy, overlooked by restaurant, late/dearly arrivals/departures, general footfall. Parking opposite hotel, or on road, or at bottom of hotel, if parking inside hotel, some cars stalled when coming up bank, be aware if using this to leave hotel if on foot, there are some steps. Pay up front for safety deposit located in room 2 Euros a day, and room tax 7 Euros per room a day ( personally do not think the hotel warrants 4 star rating, also effects tax price). Others have already commented on rating being too high. Staff are pleasant. Room Cleaned every day very basic clean, bedding towels changed every second day. Rooms spread out in blocks, if you get one near the top of road, you don’t have to deal with steep decline unless using bar/reception (which has library to leave/take books, rep’s board and information books, Jet2 rep did visit), pool, or looking at small church next to pool. Rooms are noisy, can hear neighbours, be aware of this, already mentioned. Food Breakfast all buffet, not best quality food, plenty of choice, including fresh fruit, not fresh juice, served next to bar. Evening meal choose from Al-la carte menu same as offered to passing customers, service slow even when restaurant is empty, you get starter, main course and dessert, not a large amount of choice, fine for 7 days, but any longer could be a bit repetitive, it is good value if upgrading to half board from self catering. Did not buy drink at bar, restaurant prices not too bad. While it was term time for schools, there were still more school age children of different nationalities at hotel, another thing to be mindful of if trying to get away when the children are supposed to be back at school. Issues Noise from other guests, included damage to rooms, hotel and private property in and around hotel. Hotel said was one off, but happened again on second week, and they were not British. While there were apologies from staff, they acknowledged that there were several complaints, already made, what we would call ant-social behaviour in the UK. Jumping in pool, in middle of night leaving a mess, damage, drunken behaviour, noise, loud music, throwing rubbish around, gathering around one room to party, kicking footballs around, encroaching on other people’s balconies, but they were allowed to stay.
