Unsatisfied
The apartment was awful for the fact water was coming out of the shower at all times we were not giving blankets, the with Fi was terrible. And no one was ever to be found at desk. They even told us that they over booked us and we needed to be moved to another hotel. We were able to stay and moved to another room that was better but would never go back.

Home from home :)
We had a great time made all the more special because of the wonderful staff and attention we received at the Oleander Apartments. We have no reservations in recommending this establishment to others thinking of visiting Crete. It was excellent value for money and although there is no pool the beach is a 5 minute stroll around the corner, where you will find the best waves on the island. Food on the beach is excellent and reasonably priced. The apartments are right in the middle of town but the sound proofing of the room is superb as is the air-con, which is essential! The town does go to sleep at a reasonable hour too though so it is good for those travelling with families as well. We organised transfers with the apartments staff and it couldn't have been better or better value for money. There is a real sense of family about the apartments and we will most definitely be back :)

Sem recepção, mas conveniente
O apartamento é espaçoso, e nosso quarto dispunha de uma sacada. No hotel não há recepção, mas no mesmo local há uma entrada ao lado que leva para uma agência de turismo, e lá o pessoal fornece apoio e dicas com relação ao hotel. No entorno há inúmeras lojas de souvenirs, restaurantes e um supermercado. Na avenida em frente, do outro lado da rua há uma locadora de carros e motos o que auxilia bastante na locomoção dentro da cidade. Além disso, seguindo pela rua ao lado e atrás do hotel por cerca de 30 metros há uma praia.

OK plass
Fullt utstyrt mhp kjøkkenutsyr - men kokeplate manglet. Håpløst tregt internett. Svømmebasseng, men uten vann. Sentral beliggenhet innen lokalområdet. 5 km (1 times gange) fra Rhethymnon. Mulig å ta buss, men opplysning om rutetider var ikke mulig å finne. Flott badestrand og gode restauranter i nærområdet. Stranden i retning mot Rhethymnon hadde store utslipp av sand-anriket vann fra land, noe som gjorde den ubrukelig for bading. Ved Oleander var imidlertid vannet rent og meget godt egnet for bading. Ved annen vind eller strømretning kan problemet med sand-anriket vann muligens forflytte seg til områdene ved Oleander.

vriendelijke service, maar slechte accommodatie
Vriendelijke service en goede ontvangst. We verzochten om een kamer met een echt aparte slaapkamer, maar kregen deze niet omdat het er niet is. Er was een plastic schuifdeur. De one bedroom is wat mij betreft dus een studio. Woongedeelte, dan slaapkamergedeelte met badkamer en dan balkon met uitzicht op gebouwen die nog niet af zijn. Ook de wijk vonden wij niet leuk, echt volledig gericht op toeristen, niet sfeervol. We hebben besloten te annuleren en naar bali Beach (sea view apartment) te gaan. De annulering is heel netjes geregeld door Amalia, bedankt daarvoor. Voor 6 nachten in totaal 50 euro meer betaald voor het nieuwe appartement en een prima appartement met twee slaapkamers en een ruim balkon met prachtig uitzicht.

Supernette und sehr hilfsbereites Personal
Jede Bitte und Wunsch wurde sofort erfüllt waren alle sehr sehr nett. Deutsche sauberkeitsansprüche sollte man nicht haben. Zimmer waren sehr nett eingerichtet hatten zimmer nach hinten war schön ruhig und angenehm kühl. Küche war sehr spärlich eingerichtet aber haben eh nicht gekocht deswegen störte es nicht. Ich kann es empfehlen

4/10 Fair

ARNAQUE
C'est simple j'ai réservé en espérant avoir une chambre ressemblant aux photos et qu'elle ne fut pas ma surprise en arrivant sur place. Nous n'avons pas eu de chambre chez Oleander mais dans un autre hôtel appelé Cretan Sun qui ne ressemble pas du tout aux photos. Par ailleurs la vue donnait sur un terrain vague et une petite route un peu passante et des animaux dont un coq qui est susceptible de vous réveiller si vous avez le sommeil léger. Déterminée à comprendre pourquoi je n'étais pas dans une chambre ressemblant à ce que j'avais réservé, j'ai demandé des comptes à un membre du personnel qui m'a expliqué que comme j'avais réservé sur Expedia la mise à jour avec leur site n'était pas toujours synchro et il n'y avait donc plus de chambre disponible chez Oleander. Cela n'expliquait pas le déclassement et que du coup j'avais payé pour des prestations que je ne retrouve pas , ce à quoi il m'a répondu : vous savez c'est comme pour les photos des Big Mac chez Macdo en réalité le burger est beaucoup moins attirant en vrai". .
