Natalie Hotel in Laganas

We didn't have any high expectations regarding this hotel, but somehow, Natalie Hotel didn't even meet our low expectations.

The receptionists were friendly (thank you for your help with the luggage and for calling us for an early check-in), but we were not informed from the beginning that we had to pay 10 euros per night to receive the remote for a very old, extremely noisy, and faulty AC.

We couldn't sleep properly because the walls are thin, and we could hear ATVs, cars, other guests' AC units, and drunk British tourists screaming and partying. We woke up several times every night, even while wearing earplugs, due to the loud noises.

The internet was extremely, extremely poor. The TV was so old that it probably has the Bible signed by the apostles. The bed was as uncomfortable as it gets.

Breakfast was the same 10 items every morning — decent, but cheap and lacking variety.

We had to complain three times in six days at the reception so someone would come to take out the trash and bring us new towels and toilet paper (which we had to buy ourselves after the second day).

The hotel has only one parking spot, so good luck finding a space on the street if you come with your car or rent one.

The tap water was not drinkable – it was extremely salty, to the point where we had to use bottled water from the store to brush our teeth and wash our faces. The shower water temperature would also change suddenly, either becoming very hot or very cold, even though we didn't touch the controls. Additionally, if we used the shower at high pressure, water would overflow and leak out of the drain area next to the bathtub.

If you're coming just to party, don’t plan to sleep at night, and don’t need even the minimum level of comfort, this place might work for you. But if you’re traveling as a couple or with your family, you should definitely look elsewhere.

We stayed in this hotel with family. The location is great. The pool and breakfast was also good. Staff was nice and welcoming. There were few minor things, that we were not happy about. There were lots of party-people and trying to sleep at night was not pleasant (since they were being really loud). The lock in our room was not working and they were not able to fix it during the whole week. Also there was an incident during the night and I couldn’t find staff, while I went looking for them. The hotel needs renovations, new towels/sheets etc.
